Photographing cityscapes at night is an exhilarating endeavor that unveils a whole new dimension of urban beauty. As the sun sets and the cityscape transforms into a sea of glittering lights, a magical atmosphere takes hold. The towering skyscrapers, illuminated bridges, and bustling streets create a symphony of colors and reflections. Each building becomes a unique piece of architecture, showcasing its distinct personality against the night sky. The interplay of artificial light sources, from street lamps to neon signs, adds depth and character to the composition. The contrast between the darkened sky and the vibrant cityscape creates a captivating visual spectacle. In San Diego, you have the harbor and the reflections in the water to add an extra dimension to the image.




Photographing our national parks at night is a remarkable experience that allows you to witness the majesty of nature in a completely different light. When the sun sets and darkness descends, the national parks transform into sanctuaries of tranquility and celestial beauty. The vast expanse of the night sky becomes a breathtaking canvas adorned with a tapestry of stars, constellations, and the ethereal glow of the Milky Way. The towering peaks, deep canyons, and serene lakes provide a stunning foreground against this cosmic backdrop. Included in these images are scenes from Arches, Joshua Tree, Yosemite, and Voyageurs national parks along with other locations.
