- I took this photograph at Namafjall in Iceland just as the sun was rising behind layers of thick cloud, fog and sulphur. Dawn light is illuminating some of the sulphurous fumurols and casting an eerie glow across the alien landscape.

- On a misty day at China's Huang Shan(Yellow Mountain) National Park, I came across this vertical staircase miraculously carved into the side leading towards the peek. I noticed a line of people in yellow raincoats descending the slippery stairs, and the girl in front of me taking a picture of what lay next for her.

- Long walks or short walks I always have my camera in hand taking unusal close-ups of my surroundings and sometimes the camera catches the soul of a object that may of otherwise not exsited and it makes you appreciate the environment around you in a positive way, a way that makes you see the beauty in a everyday walk.
