Im back at it after the break. It was a crazy year. Lots of cool projects coming down the pipe this year. Nothing better than working with motivated creators and artists to deliver bar raising visuals. I really don’t celebrate New Year as the calendar switches to January for many reasons I used to think were common sense. One of the things I changed long ago for my habits was treating each day as special as any holiday, calendar designated day or any other day. I just think every day is a precious gift and it matters how you celebrate and embrace each individual day broken down into moments. This will take the pressure off living in the future while staying present but still working your life plan to achieve your goals and milestones. Looking forward to see all that you guys deliver this year and can’t wait to see what all you creators bring to IG and other channels. Did anyone make resolutions? If so wanna share? #bealpha . . . . . . . . . . . #artistsoninstagram #travelstoke #travel #sonyalpha #alphacollective #sonyimages #hiking #losangeles #lastory #beautifuldestinations #aov #pnw #awesome_photographers #createcommune #exploretocreate

Amazing what a little love can do. The Indonesian government invested 12K into this run down village to give it some life. Kampung Pelangi, a small village in Indonesia, has transformed itself into a stunning display of bright colours and whimsical designs, a massive improvement. Not only did color transformed the look of this village… The energy of the people there were very welcoming and I was fortunate to fly my drone with a couple local children who were aspiring drone pilots.
Exploring in a cave with these rays shining down on me is a feeling that is hard to describe. The best way I can is “touched by God”. As we all travel this planet to explore and discover mind-blowing places ... some locations can’t be put into words.
My last trip to Indonesia was exactly what I needed to push my work to the next level. Textured landscapes, epic waterfalls and warm hearted locals that will always hold a place in my heart. Has any place on our beautiful planet ever affected you like this?
I often question what’s real and what’s not on social media… I see some killer images and then wonder 🤔 “was that person actually standing there”? Is that dive into a freezing cold glacier lake real? Was that sunset using filters? Does that person always use a tripod? Whenever possible I usually prefer to shoot handheld and get as raw of an image as possible. For this shot it was more fun bracing on rocks holding my breath at 1/60 of a shutter hoping to get a clear image 😂 This was shot using @sonyalpha a7rIII - I used a circular polarizer until the light faded then removed it for some last few shots ... the light was setting fast and I didn’t have time to get my tripod anyway. I used the 100-400GM lens for compression. I’ve barely edited this photo I brightened it a little, added a small amount of warmth toned down the shadows a little then played around with the tone curve to get what I needed for highlights and shadows. Camera Settings 100mm F13 1/60 sec ISO 200.
If you ever need clarity in a situation... change your perspective. Tegalalang rice fields. Indonesia from above.
Here’s an fun one… Our dreams tend to escalate in weirdness as the night goes on… that explains a lot 😂 This was shot in the desert at the bottom of Bromo mountain Indonesia. We managed to grab a few shots of the model before getting some drone footage but then one of the jeeps got stuck and we had to dig it out. It took a couple hours or so....kinda killed the shoot schedule... The thing about these travel adventures always be prepared for the unexpected. What’s one of the weirdest things thats happened to you on one of your trips? Shot using @sonyalpha A7rIII 21mm F7.1 1/250sec ISO 100. Thanks @sithasithatha and @pratamaaggist for being helping with this one.

This morning was a 330 AM call time with a 1.5 hour drive. My driver slept in. After trying multiple times to call to wake him up —- I was unsuccessful. Luckily in a panic I called another driver to head to this temple. I didn’t want to miss the sunrise. Borobudur temple is actually really busy this early with many photographers from around he world. I wanted to catch the same sunrise and see what I could get for shots. Luckily I brought my @sonyalpha 100-400mm GM lens to shoot over everyone’s heads. Always bring a zoom lens with you. Have you ever had a crazy time trying to get a shot? If so please share in the comments .....This is a shot from top of the temple to the roadway leading up to the temple. Shot using Sony a7rIII 137mm F5.0 1/100sec ISO 640. Edited in @lightroom
