On August 16th, 2025, I filmed this huge herd of elk in North Bend, Washington, during a calm summer evening as the sun was setting over the Cascade Mountains.

'Mossy Mess'

I couldnt have chosen a rainier day but I decided to go out and photograph anyway! I love these trees that are overhanging the cliff where the falls flow beneath at this park.

'Big Yawn'
Earlier this month I captured a group of Harbor Seals sleeping on some rocks that were just barely covered by the tide near Dune Peninsula, Washington. Seals are one of my favorite animals so I'm glad to have finally gotten some cool shots of them.

Got this photo just as the eagle was returning from an unsuccessful flight looking for fish in the ocean waves below. It was using this huge seastack as a landing spot to take breaks.

The coast was SOOO windy today and yesterday. I came to check out the beach since we are in King Tide season and I went wave hunting. This was at Cape Kiwanda, WA.

Close up with a Great Blue Heron! While I was photographing it was absolutely feasting on fish. I must have watched it catch and eat two dozen fish at least within 10 minutes!

I love watching the clouds over Rainier. Here's a little more experimentation with video and timelapses. This was taken a little while back in the summer just as I was leaving the national park. #rainier #timelapse #nationalpark

Happy Halloween! Here is a photo I took during my visit to Ruby Beach last week. The tide and waves were the highest I've ever seen at this spot and were large enough waves to be seriously dangerous. Howling winds, crashing waves, eerie sea stacks. I'd say thats pretty spooky!
