The WOW of Travel Photography
On Friday, August 16, 2024, I was proud to present this travel program sponsored by Panasonic LUMIX for Adorama. The presentation is an hour and 20 minutes and is filled with many tips and images. Enjoy and please leave any comments below.
Aldeyjarfoss - Iceland 2024
Aldeyjarfoss - A truly beautiful waterfall surrounded by basalt columns, in the northern highlands of Iceland. So many of Iceland's waterfalls have vivid blue water. The river Skjálfandafljót drops over 65 feet and the basalt columns are part of a 9000-year-old lava field called Bárðardalshraun. Foss is a waterfall in Icelandic and hraun is Icelandic for lava.

Wild Tanzania - 2023
A short video of a few scenes captured during my Photo Tour to Tanzania in September, 2023. These are from Tarangire and Serengeti National Parks.
Light painting - Still Life
This is a Light Painted Still Life - a set of 14 light painted frames blended in Photoship.
Milky Way - Quiver Tree Forest, Namibia
This is a composite image where I used 10 light frames combined with 5 dark frames for the Milky Way and 1 light frame for the foreground.
Kase Wolverine Magnetic Filters - Review
In this video I review the Kase Wolverine Magnetic Circular Filter kit for Mirrorless and DSLR cameras. The ND and polarizing filters are ideal for both photography and videography. This are probably the fines filters I have uses so far. Check out the video as I demonstrate why.

Elephant Antics
Watch a herd of Elephants drinking, playing, feeding and just enjoying the water. Watch a baby try and climb onto another young elephant's back. This video was captured in September 2022.
The road to Dune 41
The dunes in Sossusvlei are numbered based on their approximate distance from the entrance gate (in kilometers). Dune 45 is the most climbed dune at sunrise and can rarely be photographed in a pristine state. Dune 41 on the the other hand is not only very photogenic but remains pristine on most days. This is the road that leads to Dune 41 that is on the right. The dune in the background is Dune 40.
A Black-backed Jackal keeps a watchful eye
The Black-backed Jackal is endemic to Africa. This species has a disjunct distribution range, and is found in two separate populations, one in East Africa and the Horn, and the other in southern Africa. This species is entirely absent from Zambia and it is absent through much of central and equatorial Africa.
Morning in Sossusvlei
The name Sossusvlei is often used to refer to a large area in the Namib Nakluft Park, including famous locations and vistas such as Sesriem Canyon, Deadvlei, dunes 41, 45, Big Daddy, and Big Mama. Dunes are numbered based on approximately how far they are from the entrance gate. Sossusvlei however, is a large, white salt and clay pan surrounded by massive red sand dunes. The name Sossusvlei translates to “Dead-end Marsh”, vlei is a marsh in Afrikaans.
For the best light in this area, it is imperative that you stay inside the gates of the park. Only then are you allowed to drive to the dunes and photogenic locations an hour before sunrise and return an hour after sunset. All other visitors must wait at the gate that opens at sunrise and closes at sunset.
