In the red, eroded badlands behind Leo Palace, you'll also find this light-colored rock. The stain of the red soil is exposed when the rocks crack and break.

Documenting life and exploration on Guam
Waiting for the moment
I struggled to capture the beauty of this February evening at Adelup. Pressing the shutter repeatedly, I tried to freeze the gentle waves and reflected light.
Reviewing old favorites
I returned several days in a row to photograph this juvenile Yellow bittern fallen from the nest. This was my favorite image from the October 2021 session.
Devotional project complete
I have just completed my audio devotionals project, featuring 90-second messages highlighting Biblical principles and pointing listeners to Jesus Christ.
Sphagneticola trilobata
I found this trailing daisy wrapped tightly around a fallen tree in Umatac this afternoon. Their contrasting colors and textures quickly caught my attention.
Back on the Fonte River
This is our first time at this location since the typhoon. On our last attempt, we turned back because of rain. Downed trees have made it a difficult hike.
Favorites from 2023
While my photography plans for 2023 were interrupted by Typhoon Mawar, I still managed to capture ten images I am happy with. Thank you for visiting!
All the ingredients
Guam's jungle is chaotic and beautiful. I'm always trying to minimize the chaos, while capturing the beauty. This 2023 honorable mention almost does it.
A single bloom
Invasive and ubiquitous on Guam, I rarely photograph Chain of Love, but this fallen bloom was situated so uniquely it became a 2023 honorable mention.
