Yosemite North Dome

Here’s a shot of North Dome in Yosemite I’ve always liked but never posted. I processed it back when I started with Color Efex Pro 4, which changed a lot for my photography.

Color Efex Pro 4 is one of my favorite photo editing programs in the Nik Collection. A software collection that gives you quick and easy control of photo manipulation without any advanced photo editing knowledge.

The Hong Kong International Airport

On my last adventure, I stopped by Hong Kong International Airport. I heard it was cool and was excited to see it. However, I wasn’t too comfortable pulling out my tripod and shooting the interiors of an airport. It might have gotten me some unwanted attention. So, using my stealth photography abilities, I was able…

Kintai-kyo of Japan

I stayed right near Kintai-kyo bridge in Iwakuni, and the night I shot it they had it lit up with blue lights. It’s an arch bridge built purely out of fitted wood with no nails.

Shanghai Lights

Shanghai, China, is a pretty awesome place. I wasn’t expecting it to be as cool as it was. The whole time I was there, I couldn’t stop thinking about how it reminded me of Blade Runner. It was pouring rain the whole time, causing the wet streets to reflect all the neon Congee signs, which…

This gorge is a natural wonder formed by volcanic eruptions and erosion. There are several great spots to take photos, from up…

Kawabata Street in Fukuoka Japan

This photo shows Kawabata Street in the downtown area of Fukuoka Japan. It’s close to Canal City in the Nakasu district. The Kawabata Street is a row of various shops under a dome roof. If you like exploring some Japanese stores and culture this is a good spot.

Manai Falls at the Takachiho Gorge

Takachiho Gorge really surprised me once I saw it in person. It’s a bit remote, but renting a rowboat to shoot Manai Falls between the old lava walls was well worth the drive.
