Coeur d’Alene Sunset

This sunset looks particularly crazy because when I shot the photo there was some massive forest fires burning in the area. The entire region was covered in smoke and Coeur d’Alene was right in the thick of it. The smoke provided quite the hazy looking sunset, so for the shot it actually helped my situation. …

Roomy Beach

A couple of posts back (here), I posted a picture of a public beach in Playa Del Carmen. It was packed! The contrast from that to this privet beach at the resort I was staying at is quite extreme. It wasn’t as nice of a day when I took this picture, but even on the nicest …

Joplin Bug

What you know about cruising in a vintage convertible VW Bug! I saw this little jem while roaming the streets of Tulum, Mexico. I guess this is the Mexican version of Janis Joplin‘s car. 😅   Thanks for stopping by, Rob

The Hastings Building

On my recent trip to Port Townsend, Washington I was most excited to see this particular building in person for myself. I had looked at pictures of it many times online and had fallen in love with it the moment I saw it. I love this type of old Victorian architecture and seeing it in …

Alley Reflection

Camera: Canon 5D mark iii & 50L ~ Settings: 1/125 – f/16 – ISO 2500 Alley action from downtown Calgary, Canada. I don’t shoot a lot of alley photos, but I was just walking down this one and noticed the reflection in the water. A few seconds after I noticed the reflection, I noticed that …
