Snowboken

After a week of freezing temperatures, ice floes drifted down the Hudson. As Midtown and Downtown Manhattan lit up at sunset, a lone tugboat cut through the ice, turning an already great scene into something even better.

Winter Storm Hernando — the Blizzard of 2026 — buried Hoboken under 20.5 inches of snow, turning gritty streets into simpler, timeless scenes.

Yosemite changed how I see the outdoors. I first visited in 2011 and have been back at least six times since — most recently in April 2026 — drawn by its granite walls, iconic views, and landscapes that keeps pulling you back.

I often head into a landscape with a clear vision of the image I want to make. When the light is changing, it’s easy to get locked in on capturing that moment. But it’s just as important to stop and look around, and behind you, because you never know what you might be missing.
