Spring/Summer 2017 Photography

From Chicago to San Francisco. A little bit of everything.

Solar Eclipse and Everything Else

Two major highlights of this year for me were the two trips I took to Tetons. One of them was, of course, for photographing the total solar eclipse. Needless to say, it did not disappoint. But apart from those two trips, I did extensive traveling. Both, by myself and for work. That gave plenty of opportunities to photograph landscapes. Here are a few of those pictures. You can see a lot more of them on my Instagram and 500px pages.

I have grouped these pictures by their general locations. And there are three sets. First, a few from California. Then a few from around here in Colorado. And finally a bunch from Wyoming and Montana.
