In Spring, 2024, I took a road trip throughout Savannah, Georgia and Charleston, South Carolina. Alongside me, was a trusty bicycle, an iPhone 15 Pro Max and a vivid sense of wonderment. Below is a small collection of images to highlight the architecture, nature and sport in the area - all images were captured in Apple ProRAW.

Southeast Alaska’s Inside Passage is teeming with wildlife, glaciers and natural beauty. And adjacent British Columbia, specifically Alert Bay and Haida Gwaii, are remarkable places to interact with First Nations People and learn about their rich heritage and culture. For three weeks in the fall, I was teaching photography aboard the National Geographic Sea Bird throughout those regions. Below are a few images that I made along the journey.
WWII Veteran, Clarence Smoker is known as the “Hero of Cologne” from the documented fight where his Pershing tank destroyed a German Panther tank. His story is featured in a book called “Spearhead.” Clarence came to Washington, D.C. thinking he was signing copies of the book. Little did he know, that the U.S. Army would award him a Bronze Star in a surprise ceremony almost 75 years after the original battle.
