Last year at this time plans were being made for our trip out West - not only to have a family reunion in British Columbia - but then to spend two weeks touring around the Pacific Northwest. Our trip to Washington State exceeded all expectations and we have memories and images that will be remembered fondly for a long time.
I had contacted Kathy Storring - editor at Grand Magazine and informed her of the trip and where we would be going. Grand has a section called Destinations - a travel piece - and she expressed possible interest in featuring my photos and an article for the magazine. On our return I shared some images with Kathy and it was confirmed that article would be a go. It got pushed back a couple of times - but for good reason - as the timing of the article is better suited to the subject of the piece. All in all, I am very happy with the layout and it is very satisfying to finally see images and works on paper.
To view at the the article and images please follow this link to my website - the .pdf takes a bit of time to load - so be patient.

The Desktop Inspiration for this month is an homage to our trip last year. Shot at Rialto Beach - just before sunset with an iconic sea stack in the frame as well. Rialto Beach is great as it is easy to get to and you get the benifit of the sunset without the concern of a long walk through a dark rainforest to get back to your vehicle. I would love the sunset at ShiShi beach as well - but the only way really to enjoy the sunset there is to be camping as there is an hour long walk back to the parking lot.
