My experience with getting a book published started in the mid 1980s. A rock-climber friend of mine, George Myers was living in his pickup truck cab over camper in a parking lot next to Yosemite Valley’s Camp 4. The campsite for generations of hard-core climbers. George was meticulously drawing pen and ink climbing route descriptions […]

A total solar eclipse is a sight you never forget. Along with good mirages and auroras, it is one of the visual wonders of the natural world well worth crossing oceans for. The next “convenient” one will sweep through Mexico, Texas and upwards towards the North East of the United States. If health, economics, medieval […]

I am fascinated by all things visual, but especially by colors and patterns, the former for their infinite tonalities, the latter for their infinite forms. Hence it’s no surprise that I love sunsets—and also ferns! Photographing the former is more challenging for me: it’s hard to be in the right spot at the right time […]

For those who like Italy in general, and, like me, Tuscany especially, the source of eye candy is nothing short of inexhaustible. While I already presented some treasures of Florence and Lucca (which I will dare to revisit courtesy of some new shots taken recently), let me share with you the delights of Siena as […]

No words. These images hardly need explanation. Technical note; shot with a Fuji X-H1 with either the 16-55 f2.8 Fujinon zoom, or 90mm f2 Fujinon prime. Post processing in Capture 1.
