Digital landscape photography, other nature photos, and photography tips for the outdoor photographer.
Welcome the Landscape and Nature Photography blog
Landscape and nature photography is popular in scenic areas, because there's so much subject matter everywhere one turns. This blog will help you advance from taking a mere snapshot of beautiful scenery to creating a great photograph that pulls you into that scene as though you were back there again.
From winter landscape photography to macro photography, color to black and white, view my beautiful nature photography and read the digital landscape photography tips I offer to help you improve your photos.
If the topic you're interested in doesn't appear near the top of the blog, use the handy search feature on the right to check previous posts for that subject.

Icicles in the evening
This photo has a little of everything. I like the close-up texture on the icicles, the way they refract the evening skies, the Bokeh background, and probably something else too.
I've been hiking and photographing the mountains of Colorado for over three decades. Though it's nice to return to some of my favorite trails every summer, the real thrill comes from discovering a new destination, whether on a day-hike or backpack trip, and capturing the incredible scenery with my camera.
Iconic scenes, like the Maroon Bells, are well-known to casual tourists and those who've never visited Colorado. One of my goals is to introduce the world to the amazing beauty hidden in the lesser known wilderness areas of this great state.
