Sunset over the Grand Canyon from my first photography workshop, 2019. Went out solo the night before the conference and the sky put on a show.

Long exposure at Arches National Park as the park empties out at sunset — car light trails, stars coming in, and the canyon going quiet.

Corona Arch sits just outside Moab's national parks — a mile-and-a-half hike through slickrock, a ladder bolted to the canyon wall, and a smoky evening that turned into a better shot than planned.

Factory Butte from the opposite side — a strenuous hike to a vantage point nobody uses, red sandstone foreground, and the last pink light of the evening.

A lone tree at Crater Lake National Park, converted to black and white after wildfire smoke killed the sunset — and the lesson about being too locked in on one plan.
