Isolated beauty on the shores of Maui.	Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle, or 'Honu' in Hawaiian.	High in the Empire Mountains in cowboy country.
The tranquil waters of the tributary.	The incredible fade of nature - some of the best sunsets I've ever seen!	Summer days outside the beautiful town of Wanaka, in the Otago district of New Zealand's south island.
Breathtaking sunset above a sea of clouds on Acatenango's 3,976m summit, amidst volcanic eruptions from the nearby Volcano Fuego.	One of the many lovely views hiking the Liverpool Track in Mt. Aspiring National Park, on New Zealand's south island.	The beautiful lake of Wanaka town, in the Otago district of New Zealand's south island.
Lovely views on the Liverpool Track through Mt. Aspiring National Park, New Zealand's south island.	Rainbows and valleys on the famous Routeburn Track, south island, New Zealand.	A Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle (aka 'Honu'), resting at sunset near the harbor of Kailua-Kona, Hawaii.
Unending beauty on the Routeburn Track through Fiordland National Park, south island, New Zealand.	Sweeping views of the glorious Rees Dart Track, south island, New Zealand	Vulcan Acatenango casting its immense shadow over the valley floor with a full moon.
Jaw-dropping vistas on the Liverpool Track through Mt. Aspiring National Park, south island, New Zealand.	A gorgeous sunset as usual on the shores of Maui, Hawaii.	Valley vista on the Routeburn Track through Fiordland National Park, south island, New Zealand.
Roadtrip sights along the remote northern shores of Maui.	The perfect beach, with excellent surf - Playa Grande, just across the river from Tamarindo, Costa Rica.	A beautiful little gem of a waterfall, just outside of Dominicalito, Costa Rica.
