Mesquite Sunrise I
Description
The day before I took this shot of Death Valley's Mesquite Dunes there was a raging sand storm with wind gust up to 70 mph that lasted into the night. The next morning it was still very windy so I decided to head up the west side of the dunes to be upwind, and also so I could catch the blowing sand in the light coming from the east. It's a kind of weird comp but does convey the conditions fairly well.

Mesquite Sunrise III
Description
Another favorite shot from Death Valley's Mesquite Dunes after a sand storm hit. That's another photographer who slowly made his way toward to tallest dune from the east (I was on the western side). I was taking shots of him the whole way in order to show scale and knew exactly where he was headed. There were at least two others headed the same way but this guy was making good time - probably because he hardly had any gear. Anyway, I have no idea who this was but I appreciate the fact that he was there.

Impressions II
Description
Usually there are many footprints at Death Valley's Mesquite Dunes from all the tourists, photographers, etc.. But the previous day there was a severe sandstorm so I knew it would be pretty clean.

Vasquez Rocks B&W
Description
Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park is located north of Los Angeles and has been featured in many Hollywood films. This was my first time shooting here. The conditions were pretty good for most of the shoot but we were chased away at sunset by a overzealous park ranger. The colors for this shot looked kind of funky so I did a b&w conversion.

Hearst Pier 3x
Description
Another shot of my favorite pier at Hearst State Beach in San Simeon, CA after sunset. I keep reshooting this composition - I'm not sure why. Something about it grabs me. I had planned to try this in HDR for a while so I shot this with three separate exposures tonemapped later in Photomatix.

Last Light at Crystal Cove
Description
Taken Apr 30th 2008 at the far north end of Crystal Cove State Park, CA. I kind of like this one because it's a retake from a previous (failed) visit. I got the foreground rocks the way I wanted and the weather was cooperative. I did not want a clear blue sky and was pleased with these conditions.

Taken (06/23/01) at Hearst State Beach in San Simeon CA, down highway 1 from Hearst Castle well after sunset. The beach was closed for repairs but I ignored the signs and shot there anyway. I had taken shots of this pier before and wanted to reshoot it. Shortly after I took this I was chased off by the police, but at least I got the shots I wanted.
