MARCH - The same oak tree as the January photo, this image is the result of a year of photos taken from the same spot. In 2020 I set out to do a "4 seasons" series of photos of this tree, intending to simply print each individual photo. When I had all the images, I played with layering them in Photoshop, and this was the result. To me it captures the transition from winter into spring very well.

JUNE - This is Lake Almanor with Mt. Lassen in the background behind Dave in his kayak. I took this shot from the tip of Rocky Point during a summer camping trip. I took another version after Dave drifted out of the scene, but I like the one with him in it because it makes me jealous that I wasn't the one out there fishing in this moment.

JULY - This is Gem Lake in the Caribou Wilderness near Lassen National Park. This is a special image to me because it was captured on a backpack trip the year before the Dixie Fire decimated this area.

AUGUST - This is a shot from my 2022 trip to Alaska. I was in hip waders in the Brooks River during the salmon run, and this bear was charging straight for a school of salmon that was between me and the bear. This trip, and moments like this one especially, were absolutely incredible to experience.

NOVEMBER - The Milky Way and Highway 395, taken in Lassen County. I envisioned this shot a couple years ago, but finally made it happen in 2023. The hardest part was scouting out a spot that had the "395" sign, and also was on a stretch of highway that pointed southwest enough to line up with the Milky Way. the lights in this image are from a passing semi truck, headed south on the highway.
