Micro Adventure: Ski Touring at the Clemina Cabin

Now grounded with an apartment lease, I’ve decided to make 2012 the year of the Micro Adventure. A new 3-4 day, low budget, close-to-home adventure each month in attempt to fight off my usual travel itch. To kick off the new year, I spent a three-day weekend at the Clemina Cabin in British Columbia’s Caribou [...]

A New Year of Adventure Photography

It’s time for New Year’s resolutions and their evil abettor, New Year’s resolution blog posts. I’ve been guilty of it in the past, but I won’t be coerced into listing my five adventure photography resolutions again in 2012. Many of you might have noticed how little I’ve been online lately.

Postcard: A Night at Pyramid Lake, Jasper, Alberta

Living In Jasper We’ve been in Jasper for a month. What a fantastic place to live. In fact, its so much fun having a huge array of mountain bike trails, climbing routes, and hikes just moments from my back door, it has been hard to get much work done. I’m starting to find the balance [...]

Postcard: Star Light, Star Bright in Uspallata, Argentina

A Night Amid the Stars This image was fun to make and it represents what my 52 Week: Go Outside and Explore project is all about: learning new techniques, getting out from behind my computer, and connecting with nature through adventure photography. It’s my favorite image in a few weeks and I hope it motivates [...]

Interview Series: The Star Trail Photographer Ben Canales

Ben Canales grew up in Philadelphia with a nickname that described his sleep pattern – “in-bed-by-ten-Ben.” Surprisingly, after moving west to Oregon, he fell in love with the night sky and its stars that were often hidden behind light pollution on the east coast. The result? A budding career as a star photographer. While he’s [...]

Postcard: Salinas Grandes, Jujuy, Argentina

I haven’t been shooting, but I’m headed out overnight tonight to try and make a shot like this guy. Hopefully I’ll even have an interview from him [...]
