Flame: Antelope Canyon is a must see for a landscape photographer. The reflected light in the slot canyon brings out intense orange and red hues. Located near Page, AZ on Navajo land its walls are scraped by thousands of years of erosion. The Navajo name for Upper Antelope Canyon is Tsé bighánílíní, which means "the place where water runs through rocks." Not a great place to be during a flash flood.

Rivendale: Southeast Alaska is a temperate rain forest within the Pacific temperate rain forest zone. The majority of Alaskan Panhandle as it is also called is part of the Tongass National Forest, the United States' largest national forest. Southeast Alaska is the northern terminus of the Inside Passage, a protected waterway of convoluted passages between islands and fjords, beginning in Puget Sound in Washington state. The region has a mystical, fantasy-land feel to it with deep fjords, misty forests, and snow capped mountains. When I saw the moss, rocks and trees I felt like I was close to Tolkien's magic Rivendale.

Rocks & Pines: A Squam Lake, NH composition, photographed from a rocky skerry, which I reached by kayak. This small rocky island is located about 150 yards from a home of a nesting American Bald Eagles. I could hear the eaglets calling for breakfast, which mom or dad soon delivered to their nest. I was careful not to get too close to their nesting area and after capturing this shot silently paddled away. Squam provides the perfect habitat for the couple who return each year to give birth to usually two eaglets.

First Light: The Rio de Las Vueltas roars past in the early morning as the Fitz Roy range catches the first rays of the new day sun. The aqua blue of the river below is from glacier sediments created from the massive Southern Patagonian Ice Field, which lies just behind the Fitz Roy range, and is the world's second largest contiguous extrapolar ice field.

Horseshoe Bend: A classic location on the Colorado River located near the town of Page, Arizona. It can be viewed from the steep cliff above. According to Google terrain maps, the overlook is 4,200 feet (1,300 m) above sea level and the Colorado River is at 3,200 feet (980 m) above sea level making it a 1,000 feet (300 m) drop. Not a good place to stumble or drop your camera.

Prometheus: Dettifoss is a waterfall in Vatnajokull National Park in Northeast Iceland, and is reputed to be the most powerful waterfall in Europe. It is situated on the Jokulsa a Fjollum river, which flows from the Vatnajokull glacier and collects water from a large area in Northeast Iceland. Dettifoss was featured in Ridley Scott's 2012 film Prometheus. The water gushes down with such force it's hard to hear yourself think.

Ice Dragon Skull: Glacier ice washes up on a black volcanic beach on the Southern coast of Iceland. The photograph captures a process that takes thousands of years to unfold (although it's happening now at an alarmingly faster rate than ever before). Large formations of glacial ice break off Iceland's biggest glacier Vatnajökull and float into Jökulsárlón a glacier lagoon. From there the icebergs are pulled by the tides out to sea before they crash back up onto the beach and melt away forming unique and otherworldly shapes.

Blue Pehoé: Lake Pehoé and and the majestic Cerros del Paine (horns) capture your attention and your heart in a way that is hard to describe in words. The unique shapes of the foreground pools and the deep glacier fed blue of Lago Pehoé caught my eye on a quiet evening in Patagonia's Torres del Paine National Park of Chile.

Fall Lines: Colorado comes to life in autumn as the foliage explodes into golden yellows. I was attracted to the white lines of the tree trunks, and the contrasting yellow, white and green firs. This shot was captured in the San Juan Mountains near Telluride, CO.
