Nubble Lighthouse Magic Hour || Lightroom Only
Occasionally I like to showcase the power of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom by processing one of my images using only Lightroom. Seeing as I haven’t done such a post in a while, I thought it was about time to do another! This image comes from the Nubble Light (aka Cape Neddick Lighthouse) in York, Maine. I wasn’t intending to visit this location on this particular day – I happened to have a meeting not far away...
Sakura Flow || Lightroom Only

The photo was taken in a section of the moat around the...
Lightroom Only || Mt Fuji On Lake Saiko

Although the view of Mt. Fuji is partially obstructed at Saiko, the natural beauty and serenity of the lake made up for it....

I’ve got lots of places I want to visit and photograph, and can’t wait to share those photos with you! In the meantime, I’m looking back through old images and considering the editing process while I...
Tokyo From The Ikebukuro Sunshine Tower
Although it doesn’t snow a whole lot in Tokyo, it can get very cold. As a landscape and travel photographer, that poses a problem. There’s not a lot of motivation to get outside with my camera, but there’s also not much to photograph indoors. Thankfully, Tokyo has a solution – tall buildings with observation decks. During the winter, the air over Tokyo is relatively clear, so the views from these buildings can be spectacular. Additionally,...
