Bright, Saturated Day at the Golden Gate Bridge

Picture perfect clear blue sky type of day! Wandered into a different side of the Presidio and saw this perspective and view of the Golden Gate Bridge so of course, this had to be captured (through the fence). Love the mix of the greenery and the scenic mountain backdrop of the North Bay.

The Breathtakingly Refreshing Lan Su Chinese Garden

The Lan Su Chinese Garden may be a small, hidden spot in Chinatown but the beauty of the space is astonishing. This picture was taken early summer, but the colors of the trees offer a mixture of a fresh spring and a rustic autumn vibe.

Radiating Light and Sunset Colored Clouds Imagery

We all need a little extra light in our lives.

While flying for a couple hours, I watched the sunny afternoon sky slowly transition into sunset and then darkness as we jumped through different time zones.

When I looked outside the plane, I noticed the clear, yellow-orange sunset and soft clouds across the sky and had to capture it immediately. It resembled the colors and natural aspects of the anime Your Name. Your Name has some of the best visual imagery of clouds and streams of radiating lights and I was inspired to use those same colorful effects here. While creating this image, I used the sunset photo as the backdrop and added in various layers to show streams of light (inspired by Perfume's Tokyo Girl MV), sunlight, clouds, sparkles and other reflections. I also added in some human aspects to this by having multiple versions of myself stepping on clouds and creating sharp reflections on the clouds.

The Canvas of Clouds Spread Across the Sky

Looked outside the window and saw these spectacular altocumulus clouds aligning so perfectly with each other a couple of hours before sunset. The stream of yellow lighting also added texture and various hues to the clouds. It's always a treat when you get such awe-inspiring aerial views of the sky from above!

The Majestic Eiffel Tower at the Paris Hotel

Not the real Eiffel Tower in Paris, France but still worthy of admiration and a picture in Las Vegas! After a nice stroll around the crowded streets at the strip, I decided to capture this golden structure and all its glory. A quick subtle pink filter gives it a nice, soft pastel vibe. 

Night Light Streams of Reflections at Cuyahoga River

Sunlight becomes sunset. Sunset becomes twilight. Twilight becomes dusk and as we got closer to pure darkness, I had to capture this view of Cleveland Memorial Shoreway in Cleveland. The lights glimmered so magnificently and the clear skies made the reflections even more vibrant. So many different colored lights adorned this bridge making it one of the coolest bridge photos.
