A few years ago, Kevin went out to New Mexico on a photography trip with his dad and brothers. The one souvenir they brought home was a big bag of green chile powder that they bought at a roadside spice market. That was my introduction to the flavor and ingredient that I've learned to associate with New Mexico's cuisine. Chiles are New Mexico's largest agricultural crop. The best chiles in the ...
How to Photograph A Lunar Eclipse
Sunset on Sunday night... We pulled off the side of the road at a mountaintop vista in Kneeland, California (population: 244).

Bear Watching, Candied Salmon & One Perfect Sunset: Tofino, British Columbia
Our trip to Tofino, British Columbia started as too many of our trips do -- locked out of an AirBNB apartment. We were traveling with our B.C.-native friends Ryan and Rita. They had picked us up in Victoria and we headed north. Tofino has been called the "jewel of Canada's West Coast" and National Geographic Traveler named it one of the word's best surf towns. Our ...
