Novel Phone Booth at Grand Hotel, Mackinac Island, Michigan
You don’t see these very often anymore, and I’m not sure that’s a good thing. What Super Storm Sandy showed, was cell phone service gets knocked out with everything else during power outages. A few phone booths may have saved the day for many people lost without power and communication. And maybe these nostalgic looking English-style booths kinda “perty-up” the neighborhood. Just saying. 
This little red phone booth sits on the grounds of the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island in northern Michigan. It seemed to be summoning me..Phone Home..Phone Home! But I didn’t go in for fear that the ghost of Clark Kent would show up and need it to change into Superman. It’s possible! Christopher Reeves did do a film here called, “Somewhere in Time”.  It’s a stretch..HaHa!
Sentinel Dome,Yosemite National Park
A nice vigorous mile hike to get to the top of Sentinel Dome to catch the sunset light of this 8,122 ft high hill. From this high point you can see 360 degrees around all of Yosemite. Quite invigorating and worth the trip.
Taking in the Grand Canyon, Arizona
Watching the colors of the canyon change as sunset approaches. The distant Colorado River falls into deep shadows, as it snakes through this mammoth hole it’s created. Cameras are clicking all around me, as photographers try to catch this fleeting moment, as the sun sets. I’m probably in the way, sitting there just taking it all in, as if I’m the only one in the universe enjoying this incredible, into one of the 7 wonders of the world. And I really don’t care that I may be in the way.. This moment is mine.
Coast near Lincoln City, Oregon
Oregon Coast with it’s fog and clouds never disappoints for a dramatic HDR shot. Summers are cool and we look for any excuse to get out of the Arizona heat and venture up to Oregon in summer to spend a week exploring the coast lines.
Garden,Kailua-Kona, Hawaii
While on a visit to Kona, Hawaii, we stopped by the Outrigger Hotel to catch some sunset photos. This interesting garden with lagoon and tiki torches made for some great reflective photos. Hawaii gives you all the elements of colorful surroundings. You just have to have fun and set up the shots that catch your attention. Evening shots are always my favorite time for shooting and in Hawai that’s the time I come alive.
Water Fountain Paradise, Arizona
As I travel around Phoenix during the day, realizing we do live in a desert, having a little water spouting out makes it feel more like an oasis instead of this gigantic formidable hot,dry desert wasteland. Fountains and man-made lakes make it seem more tolerable. We travel alot around the world, but it’s always good to get back to Arizona. It seems when the rest of the country is going through hell with hurricanes, tornadoes, and crazy weather, Arizona is calm, blue and mild. It’s not everybody’s cup of tea, but then, we’re kind of glad it’s not!
Castle Neuschwanstein, Bavaria, Germany
Ludwig II’s fairy tale castle, as it is sometimes called is the climax to the “Romantic Road” trip through southern Germany into Bavaria. Autumn was in full blaze when we arrived the evening before. Snow was forecasted to be moving in and the small town of Schwangau, we decided to stay in, was completely fogged in. The next morning of our planned trip to the “fairy tale”  castle didn’t look to promising with everything still fogged in. I guess the weather gods heard our cry for clear passage, for by noon the skies had cleared into a beautiful blue day, which allowed us to hike higher into the mountains above the castle and catch this shot. Made you feel like you were in a dream, sitting on top of the world.
Rocky Shores of Lake Huron, Michigan
On our trip to Mackinac Island we followed the west shoreline of Lake Huron for just this reason, to hopefully catch stretches of shoreline that were pristine and endless. This golden shore accented by the setting sun and a little photoshop magic helped set the mood I was hoping for.
Enjoying the Calm of Boothbay Harbor
I don’t know. With all the crazy weather and so many folks struggling to get back to normal in the Northeast, I just had to go through my arsenal of photos and find a more peaceful time when I was there. One early summer evening in Maine, when I was sitting on the harbor in Boothbay, enjoying the stillness of the unseasonably cool night, I took this photo. It’s nothing special. I just remember the peace I found just sitting there alone. I was actually freezing, while people back home in Phoenix, were unseasonable hot, smelting in the desert. A few days later in Maine it became unseasonably hot in the 90′s. We decided to cut our trip short because it became too hot in Maine. A 105 degrees in Phoenix feels better than 90 degrees in Maine. Go figure!

Most of us just want things to be normal. I wish for folks that our struggling with the cold and their losses, will soon find their normal again. Things always come back around. I guess that’s hard to believe when you’re sitting in the midst of a crisis. But it will happen.. in time!
