Sabino Canyon Trail - Lonesome Cactus - . .
Can't believe it's already been 2 years and some months since I last posted. But here I am again, posting once more on Instagram. I honestly thought to myself that I had already given up on my photography, but I guess my recent hike with my cousin who visited from out of town inspired me to post once more. In fact he was actually the one who noticed this 'Lonesome Cactus' just standing there up in the mountain by itself. So we took a few minutes to stop and take this beauty of a shot. That day in our hike made me realize what I loved so much about photography, or landscape photography in general. It's the adventure that makes it fun and the people who you share those moments with is what makes it worthwhile. So to those who see's this photo, I hope you enjoy it just as much as I do. . .

Highway 89 Page, Arizona - Between Canyons - . .
Man has it been a long time since I posted a photo, buy hey, Im going it. This was an unexpected road trip that my wife and I made to Utah. We started driving late at night after my work and just went from there. Yes the photo is not in Utah. This was taken when we were heading home from Zion. We actually passed this spot while driving and I told my wife we had to go back since to me the lighting just looked perfect. I made the U-turn and went back. Since I was driving I had to make my wife take the photo from the sun roof of the Car. She took a burst of shots and I thought this photo looked the best. I do hope you all like this photo we managed to take while driving. . .

Sabino Canyon, Arizona - 7 Falls - . .
I know I havent posted in a while but here's a photo I recently took when we went up to 7 Falls. My Cousin and his family visited us this week and we all decided to hike up Sabino Canyon since they wanted to see 7 Falls. It was a fun hike despite the cold weather and the 5 super cold rivers that we had to cross. When we made it up to the top, I decided to climb a little higher and found this sweet spot where the waterfall created a little beach and I set up my tripod low to the ground near the water. I've hiked 7 Falls numerous of times but this time was different since I had my whole family with me. And that made it a lot more special and fun. I hope you guys end up liking this photo, and please leave me some feedback. . .

Mount Lemmon, Arizona - Sunset Couples - . .
The story behind this photo is a little funny honestly. These two Couple, Natalie and Her Boyfriend, were enjoying a nice beautiful winter sunset looking over Tucson when I just happened to be there taking landscape shots. As they were getting up to leave, I awkwardly asked them if I could take their photo and if they could do something sweet as a couple to pose. And to my surprise they agreed and posed for me. After taking their shot I got to show them their photo and they loved it. I'm hoping to go visit their home state up in Seattle soon, which I think would be a great adventure! Meeting new people Like this, for me, if such an awesome feeling because You get to make friends with everyone even though you've only met them☺️ . .
