Two months later and I finally have some down time to organize and edit photos. WOOT! During these past couple of months, I traveled to southeastern Alaska, Greenland, Iceland, and then Nome, Alaska. During that time, I led a total of five workshops on behalf of Backcountry Journeys.

I now get a two week break to play catchup and share what I captured during my adventures. In the meantime, here is a sneak peek from my Greenland expedition.

It was a beautiful night out on the water, photographing sail boats and icebergs. Thick fog rolled in making the night appear mystical and eerie. The only thing missing were the songs of the sirens. Insteady, silence filled the air between us. Standing on a sail boat, I watched as the other boat drifted in front of the setting sun. A warm glow illuminated behind the sihouett of the boat creating a magical scene you would expect to find in a dream.

Several images later and this became one of my favorite scenes from my Greenland workshop.

Recently (June 1-8), I led an Alaskan Wildlife Safari photography workshop on behalf of Backcountry Journeys along the Kenai Peninsula. During the trip, we spent two days on a boat photographing marine wildlife, went on two bear excursions, and made a couple stops along the coast to photograph bald eagles. It was an exciting adventure!

We did have a few days where it was hot and sunny, making for poor photography conditions, but other than that, the trip was great with an abundant of wildlife. It felt so good to get back to Alaska and spend some time with bears.

Currently, I'm back home for a couple weeks editing photos and preparing for my next trip. In July, I'll be returning to Alaska, but this time, I'll be leading a liveaboard photography workshop, spending a week on a boat exploring different areas in southeast Alaska. For the time being...edit, edit, and more editing...

All images below were photographed with a Canon R5 Mark II and 100-500mm lens.

During a recent trip to Alaska, I led a wildlife photography workshop photographing different animals along the Kenai Peninsula. One of the places we visited was Lake Clark National Park where we saw this young bear clamming along the coast at low tide. It was a cold and cloudy morning in Alaska. The wind was blowing and the bear was hungry. Working as a bear guide, I led my crew out into the sand flats to get closer to the bear. Once we were a little more than 100 yards from the bear, we patiently waited as the bear worked its way towards us. We then managed to snap several photos before moving on in search of other bears. The images in this video were photos I took with my Canon R5 Mark II and 100-500mm lens.

As I led a bird photography workshop in Mindo Valley, Ecuador, we visited multiple sites that had a bunch of hummingbird feeders. Several species of hummingbirds would come and feed as we photographed them. These birds were habituated. There were many times while photographing them I would have one sit on my shoulder, my hand, and even my camera gear. It was always a precious moment having a tiny bird perched on you. During one of our stops, I decided to experiment with capturing shots of the birds with both my Canon 15-35mm lens and my Canon 100mm macro lens while holding a small feeder in my hand. It was a lot harder than it looked. Having a tripod would have been ideal. After several minutes of photographing these birds in a frozen position, my arms became tired.

I had a great time with these little birds. The abundance of hummingbirds at these sites provided several opportunities to experience with different angles and ideas. If you ever get a chance to visit Ecuador, I highly recommend going on a birding adventure in Mindo Valley. It is a birder’s paradise.

During my recent trip to Ecuador, I decided to experiment with shooting hummingbirds with my Canon 100mm macro lens. I wanted to test the waters to see if I could capture close-up, detailed images of the birds while they were feeding.

Several shots later, these images were the ones that made the cut. I love the vibrant details in their iridescent feathers. It's like seeing close-up photographs of tiny fairies dancing in the jungle. Next year, when I return to Ecuador to lead another bird photography workshop on behalf of Backcountry Journeys, I plan on capturing more shots showcasing the bird's intricate patterns.

One of the things I love about the Galapagos Islands is what lies beneath the surface. There are SO many hidden gems living in the sea. These images were photographed while leading a photography workshop in the Galapagos Islands (May 2026), on behalf of Backcountry Journeys. Shot with a Canon R5 and 15-35mm lens in an Ikilite underwater housing.

Meet the world's largest venomous snake, the king cobra!

Photographed during an expedition to India. This particular snake was rescued and relocated away from human activity. My goal was to document the rescue, but I just missed the opportunity. However, I still got the chance to capture some nice images of this beauty upon being released back into the wild. Gorgeous animal! I can confirm, they are a little more intimidating when you're down on the ground with no barrier between you and the snake. Considering there is no anti-venom for this species, one bite would mean death. One day I do plan on returning to India to once again try to document a cobra rescue.
