"A LONG WAY DOWN"

The Big Island, Hawaii

Partially obscured by clouds, this waterfall cascades nearly 2,000 feet down a very steep volcanic mountainside. It's hidden in the back of the famous and mysterious Waipio Valley, and is rarely seen by visitors since the trail to it -- which was not well-known to begin with -- was closed years ago.
"PEACE AND LOVE"

St. Croix, US Virgin Islands

Standing atop Grassy Point on St. Croix's southern shore, a couple embraces after building a giant peace symbol using nearby beach rocks.
"THE ONLY SEASTACK"

St. Croix, US Virgin Islands

The sea rages around a little-known seastack near Hams Bluff on the northwestern corner of St. Croix.
"ROSE LAKE SUNSET"

Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, Minnesota

This is Rose Lake in the very northern reaches of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. It straddles the US-Canada border -- the rocks in the foreground are Minnesota, and the land on the horizon is Canada.
"THE ONLY SEASTACK"

St. Croix, US Virgin Islands

I found this spot on the west end of the island while scouting locations. Unlike the Pacific Northwest, seastacks are rare in the Caribbean. This is the only one I've found on St. Croix in eleven years.
"SKYFIRE"

Great Sand Dunes National Park, Colorado

Aglow with the color of the setting sun, clouds streak across the sky over the Sangre de Cristo mountain range and the dune sea.
"FAIRYTALE SCENE"

Maui, Hawaii

This beautiful spot lies hidden in a far-flung part of Maui. It is, hands down, one of the most idyllic and perfect places I have ever seen. Just outside of the frame, there is a little rope swing for kids to jump into the water, and a little flat grassy spot perfect for having a picnic. It is literally a fairytale scene come to life.
"ANGRY OCEAN"

Maui, Hawaii

Huge, wind-driven waves crash upon a rocky shore. The power of these waves was incredible - I could actually FEEL the rumbling bass in the ground when they hit.
"THREE FLOWER WATERFALL"

Maui, Hawaii

After recent heavy rains, water gushes over a random, unnamed falls.
"ROSE LAKE SUNSET"

Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, Minnesota

This is Rose Lake in the very northern reaches of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. It straddles the US-Canada border -- the rocks in the foreground are Minnesota, and the land on the horizon is Canada.
