Exploring The World

A Personal Journey

As I explore the world of Nature, I try to capture and share its beauty and wonder in words and photos. Here you will find my observations on the astonishing world we live in.

My new book, California Nature, is here!

Not a traditional travelogue, but rather a collection of personal impressions, observations, and reflections from my six-week camping adventure in the wilderness of California's National Forests and Parks, highlighted with more than 30 photographs of the Natural beauty of the deserts, mountains, and forests I explored, including Yosemite, Death Valley, and Sequoia National Parks, among others.

Printed on high-quality Premium Lustre paper, the pictures are large and beautifully rendered. An appendix includes the "tech stuff", listing camera gear and exposure information for each photo.
