I still have lots to share from our trip to Norway!  I wanted to include the renowned Trollstigen (you can hardly visit the region without seeing this iconic zigzag road), but the harsh lighting kept my photos out of “wow” territory. There's no real entertaining photostory here, but we did…

Exploring Norway is a new scenic wonder around every corner.  Just when we thought we had been wow’d enough for one day, something else fell across our path that renewed the amazement.  This particular day, we had already visited an adorable church and hiked a spectacular glacier (that story's coming…

Instagram post 2198498208114905767_820753812 #NoRegrets. We got so lost trying to find one of our campgrounds in #Norway. In fact, we ended up going through two, 8km tunnels.. in the wrong direction! But everything turned out in the end. Because of our delay, our arrival was timed with this pack of cuties coming down the grassy path. I hopped out of the car, and they were so curious about my big lens that they all stared at me - and it made for the perfect pose for my picture. ... Do you love #goats as much as I do? . . #FavoritesFriday - one of the elite top photos from 2018
Instagram post 2193716594314868839_820753812 #NoRegrets. We were out to the #BryceAmphitheater early each day and late enough to catch #sunset every evening. Let me tell you, the #Utah desert gets cold fast, especially in the winter. But every moment gazing on that #fantasticallandscape was more than worth a few numb fingers. I already have a list of shots and trails for our next visit! ...

Instagram post 2173089588548242129_820753812 #NoRegrets. We climbed up #waterfalls and peeked under mossy logs. The #PacificNorthwest is such a beautiful place, and I never get bored! Even if the hike is a little crazy and the company even more so! ... Who do you like hiking with? . . #FavoritesFriday - one of the elite top photos from 2018
Instagram post 2167817869973700931_820753812 #NoRegrets. We drove everywhere in #Norway! It's such a #beautifulcountry, and we couldn't help but stop every hundred yards or so to take more photos. This meant we didn't get to drive quite as far north as we originally wanted, but what we did see was worth every moment. Besides, we can't see it all in one trip; we need an excuse to go back! ...

Instagram post 2163034534336406723_820753812 #NoRegrets. Venturing down to the river that runs in front of #Zion's Watchman, I found I quite liked the view of the closer rock face. While everyone else was focused on the iconic formation, I couldn't help shooting everything in all directions. #ZionNP is too beautiful not to! ...

Instagram post 2157644481233626220_820753812 #NoRegrets. After we arrived in #Norway, we were stranded for a bit in #Kyrping waiting for a friend's luggage. Fortunately, the spot was spectacularly beautiful, and we had so many #seagulls to keep us company. One even decided to dive-bomb me repeatedly as I walked to the end of the pier. The water there was also perfectly still, so I had fun photographing the mirrored images. ... Have you ever been stuck somewhere because the airline lost your bag?

Instagram post 2142613268351348015_820753812 #NoRegrets. After a long day of hiking near #MountAdams, we ventured down into the valley to capture some #fallcolors. It was a beautiful day, and the lighting was simply superb. It was more than worth the extra hour or so before returning home, and it wound up being the highlight of the day! ...

Instagram post 2137360970259832427_820753812 #NoRegrets. I simply love #fallcolors, and I almost completely missed them due to my busy busy life. But even the drive out to this hike near #MtAdams was awash in reds and golds, so I quickly forgot my to-do list. I'm glad we stopped on the way in, as the lighting was better than when we left, and this tiny copse of trees was perfect to photograph. ... Which is your favorite season?
