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.

Where America’s day begins and my island-home in the Pacific since July of 2015.
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.
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.
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.
2023 honorable mentions
I usually publish a “best of the year” post in December. Not all of my favorites can be included. This bittern is the first of my 2023 honorable mentions.
Emerald Valley lone tree
We spent part of Labor Day in the Emerald Valley near Piti. The landscape has changed since Typhoon Mawar came and went. Now this tree stands alone.
Many happy returns
This little waterfall on the Fonte River has been one of our favorite places in recent years. My son and I just had the chance to visit that area again.
