Good old Nashville is the star of today's post - specifically, that gorgeous skyline they got there!  It's my favorite spot to visit in town, and I try and go here every time I get to Nashville.  A trip somehow seems incomplete without it.  Here are 6 HDR photos taken during a stunning sunset!

I lucked into an amazing sunset at Lime Kiln Point State Park on San Juan Island, Washington - amazing clouds and superb color.  It was a real stunner.  Click on in and see all 4 pics!

Sunsets are heard to beat in Oregon!  I saw so many beautiful ones that I feel like this could become an Oregon sunset blog!  LOL  Hope you enjoy this collection of pics!

I love Oregon - there is just so much beauty there.  It's almost hard to digest it all.  It seems at every turn, there is something else more beautiful than what you just saw.  I spent some time there recently, and one evening a beach walk turned into a full-on sunset adventure.  Here are 15 photos that show you just how beautiful that evening really was!

I caught an incredible golden hour recently at Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach, Oregon.  It was one of those times when everything just worked out perfectly.  Here are 10 photos that prove it!

As photographers, we are ever hopeful and optimistic about the light.  We hope and pray for good things to happen in the atmosphere, so we can capture it and share it.  Usually it ends up being ok, but now and then you get a really amazing display of Earth's beauty.  I was lucky enough to have that happen to me recently while in Bandon, Oregon.  Here are 14 pics that show you just how awesome this sunset really was!

I caught some absolutely fabulous light on a trip to Minneapolis a while back.  I shot above and below their Stone Arch Bridge and had a heck of a good time doing it. Check out this baker's dozen pics and enjoy!

How awesome is the Brooklyn Bridge?  Pretty awesome!  Here's a collection of shots from a photo outing I had there one evening last year.  It started around sunset and kept on going into blue hour.  Hopefully I can return to NYC later this year and shoot it again - there's a lot of things to aim the camera at there!  (Hey Jim, that's pretty obvious! LOL)  

I love sunset, and when you get a stellar one it's even more fun!  I caught this one way back in 2012, but never got around to processing or sharing any of the pics until now.  Read my thoughts on being so far behind, why I am ok with it, and see some pretty pics too!

I love signs and graffiti - and sunset, 'natch! - and caught all 3 on a recent outing here in Austin.  It's great to travel and shoot in various spots around the world, but it's also great to shoot interesting things near home.  It's easier to get there, too LOL!

On my recent trip to Copenhagen, I had hopes for good shooting, but the weather forecast did not look promising.  Couple that with a missed connection in London, and I was sure that my first day there was going to be a bust.  But sometimes Mother Nature (and travel complications) work out for the best!  I ended up shooting a fabulous sunset - and here are 22 photos (count 'em!) to illustrate just how great it was.  Have a look!

My family and I spent a recent week in Abiquiu, NM - in this wonderful casita perched high on a hill with a commanding view of the surrounding countryside.  It was beautiful, and of course I took a lot of photos.  Today's post has 14 pics that I took on the evening we arrived, so dive on in and enjoy the sunset and the pics!

When you find yourself in a fabulous city like New York, and it's sunset, and you have your camera with you - it's time to fire away!  (hey Jim, that's obvious!)

But sometimes you get home and think about the shots you didn't take.  That's ok, and it does happen.  But it's also rewarding when you decide to change your habits and do something you never really do, and it works out great.  Here's 6 pics from Central Park where I changed things up and it worked out great.  Have a look!

San Francisco is a lovely city, and a great one for photography.  Today's post is a little tour of a few spots that I have photographed there on my travels.  A little bit of this and that, if you will.  Take a look and enjoy the tour!

Ah, Las Vegas - you are a photographic wonderland!  There really is a lot to shoot there, if you can handle being there for more than 24 hours!  I spent 3 days there recently, and came home with 1500 photos.  So yeah, I guess I did ok.  :-)

Take a look at these highlights of the trip, and let me know what you think of Sin City!

It's hard to beat a great sunset.  We all know that.  But when you are in France and you get a great sunset?  Well, that's something to write home about!  Or in this case, write a blog post about.  :-)  

Here's a few pics to enjoy - and I sure hope you enjoy them.  I definitely enjoyed being there and taking them!

Do you ever go back and re-process photos that you have previously shared? I do that sometimes, and find that it's a great creative exercise.  But recently, I HAD to go back and re-create an old photo for a client, and it took me forever to make it look like how it looked when I first processed it, about 5 years ago.  And so I learned a lot in the process - and I am sharing those learnings and my observations in today's post.  Have a look!

Sometimes you find yourself in absolutely the wrong place when the sunset decides to get all awesome.  It's a real drag, but hey what can you do about it?  Well, I'll tell you what I do.  I shoot like crazy.  What if it's the best sunset you've seen in ages?  You can't just pack it up and go home.  Take the shot - you never regret it!

Do you ever find yourself in the wrong spot when the light gets awesome?  Yeah, me too.  So I do what any sane person would do - RUN and find a good spot!  Luckily, I didn't get hit by any of the bewildered Parisian drivers!

Here's a collection of shots from a FABULOUS sunset I shot recently in Montpellier, France.  Although I was tired from no sleep on the flight over, I just could NOT resist getting out and exploring a bit.  Then to get rewarded with such great light - well, let's just say I was pretty dang happy!
