  • Carpathian Countryside

    Looking down into the valley near Simeria, Romania after my attempt to detour around a traffic jam was thwarted by the path forking in four directions, none obviously heading the way I wanted.

  • Two Views of Half Dome

    Half Dome is one of the most iconic and recognized rock forms in Yosemite Valley, and also one of my favorite features of the Valley. I took a few photographs of it while I was there a few weeks back.
