Verruga do Frade means Friar’s Wart in English. See if you can find it below. It is the same photo, but I just cropped it and then rotated the cropped view. This is a mountain range visible from Teresópolis and would have been nice to…

When Samara and I were planning the trip to Brazil, one of the main attractions to staying in Teresópolis was the Parque Nacional da Serra dos Órgãos (which translates to Organs Range National Park but not really) and the Dedo de Deus (Finger of God)…
I originally went to Chiricahua National Monument to see the Coati, but the rock formations were quite impressive too. I wish I had scheduled more time to explore the area more.
Some shots from around Skull Rock in Joshua Tree NP. Another one that was hard to get a good angle that was not swarming with people…
The rest of my photos from Carlsbad Caverns… And it is a little hard to see, but look closely to see one of the most clever signs ever posted at a national park.
A bit of an abstract one today… In some of the hot springs in Yellowstone, there are bacteria mats that can take a while to grow. I found them interesting to look at and tried to photograph them and capture some of the patterns in…
On my last visit to Mount Rainier NP, I hiked back up to Reflection Lake which was still frozen pretty solid despite the lower elevations being clear of snow by this point in the season. However, it has been rather hot here recently, so the…
I’ve shared some other landscape photos from the Tetons, but these shots all waited for the wind to die down just enough to produce some glassy water for nice reflection shots. Apologies for the multiple angles, but sometimes just a slight change makes it worth…
One of the things I wanted to do while at Devil’s Tower National Monument was to take some astrophotography with timelapse and star trails.
I asked about these road signs when I was visiting Congaree National Park, and the answer was that they are meant to make you think instead of just driving by in your normal routine… I like it.
Just some landscapes from my visit to Badlands National Park last year… Including a couple from my last day there when the haze and smoke from the Canadian wildfires rolled in.
These first couple are from Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes – and I have to admit that this is what I was expecting to see more of when I first though of visiting deserts, but this is the first set of “proper” sand dunes I’ve encountered.…
Last summer, I visited Black Moshannon State Park with my friend Rich. The water there is full of tanins and looks like a dark brown color though it is otherwise clear. But I have never seen so many water lilies in my life… I wished…
I am not sure why these photos have such a dreamlike feel to them. I don’t know if it is because of where they were taken – in the middle of Death Valley NP at Badwater Basin. Or if it is just the soft pinks…
I did not originally think a visit to Carlsbad Caverns National Park would be worth it, but on (another) recommendation from my friend Dawn, I made a point to add it to my itinerary for my drive east towards Florida, and I am quite glad…
