Still absolutely guts me that there’s a small but vocal group of humans who think all wolves should be eradicated. Humans suck. Thanks for this great video Richard Bernabe

Anytime you hear about all the “green” energy projects happening in the California and Nevada desert, know that they are destroying special ecosystems like this. Solar panels belong on buildings and over parking lots, not on previously wild landscapes.

I love it when Walmart gets my order wrong 🥰 place where animal shouldn’t be

Here's a collection of cactus photos I captured this year in Death Valley. 🌵💕

There are two kinds of people- folks who stand back at the luggage claim belt, knowing we can all see what’s coming if we do that, and the rest of y’all savages. 😂

It was a blast chatting with Mali Davies on his excellent podcast. We covered A LOT of ground, and I think he did an awesome job with the production. Thanks for having me on! Sithee! ;)

Very lucky and privileged to have an image in one of the best awards books out there. It is an absolutely beautiful collection with so much inspiration inside. Great to see some friendly names in there too.

Just 6 days until we re-open for entries!

We are in love with these elegant images from Waldemar von Niessen, which were entered into our perennial competition last year. P.S. we re-open for Year 4 on April 15th. Anyone else as nervous as we are about that!?
Thanks for these great photos, Waldemar!

Bold light and color help carry these two images entered last year by Zachary Fontes.
What do you think about them?
Nice work Zackary!
