Ice Age ( 冰河時代 )

Mendenhall Glacier Ice Cave. Juneau, Alaska.

Geared with helmet and ice-trekkers, my friends and I set out on an unguided day-long adventure, going through strenuous and steep terrain on a rainy and windy day to explore ice caves carved by water stream on this ever-shifting landscape of Mendenhall Glacier. While the second half of the hike was a bit brutal due to bad weather condition, exploring this glacier cave was truly an exhilarating and memorable experience! Standing here, everything looked so blue...but there was definitely nothing to feel blue about that day!

Color Palette ( 彩色板 )

Intimate View of Wheat Fields. Palouse, Washington.

While wider views of the rolling hills were mesmerizing to look at, I also wanted to capture some close-up views of these seemingly manicured wheat fields during my visit. As the sun rose, the constantly changing interplay of lights and shadows painted these hills with different hues and rendered it with an abstract feel that you see here!

Updates: This picture was a finalist in the Outdoor Photographer's Shot with Tamron Landscape Photo Contest 2015 and was featured on the October 2015 issue of Outdoor Photographer magazine.

Corazon ( 夕醉心湖 )

Heart Shaped Lake with Mount Shasta in the Background. Mount Shasta, CA.

This is definitely one of my favorite views around Mount Shasta. The hike was a bit steep but not too difficult. However, hiking back in the dark was quite a challenge as there was no actual trail to follow for a big portion of the hike. Nevertheless, the view here is definitely worth the trouble! :-)

Farm Ville ( 金麥拂曉 )

Wheat Fields of Palouse. Palouse, Washington.

This is the place where the famous Windows XP wallpaper was taken! I enjoyed a beautiful morning watching the sun casting lights and shadows on these rolling hills. The texture on these seemingly manicured wheat fields is amazingly beautiful!

Winter Escapade ( 冰峭寒影 )

Frozen Waterfall Along a River Canyon. Alberta, Canada.

Winter was pretty much non-existent in California the past season, so it was quite delightful to experience the cold winter breeze when we were up there in Alberta. Although it was also relatively warmer for that time of the year during our visit, it did drop to -18C on our last morning there! We spent some time hiking and exploring, and this was one of the places we visited. The river is fed by glacier melt water, thus giving the frozen waterfall a cool blue tone you see here.

Spring Purple Carpet ( 花紅滿山春 )

Wild Owl's Clovers Covering the Slope of the Hill ( 貓头鹰三叶草 ). Livermore, CA.

Spring has sprung! It's wild flowers season again! My friends and I explored the East Bay hills nearby and found these flowers covering an entire facade of the hill. Apparently, this flower is native to California and are blooming in many places now! What we like about this particular bunch was how the setting sun lit the flowers, putting a radiant glow rim light on them!

Have a wonderful Spring season, everyone!

Updates: This picture won the Pashadelic Photo of the Month "Wildflowers" Contest in May 2015.

Breaking Dawn ( 紅日破曉 )

First Burning Sunrise of 2015! San Francisco, CA.

Although I have been shooting sunrises and sunsets for a while, seeing a dramatic one is few and far between. This morning was one of those lucky days! Minutes before sunrise, the whole sky lit up with colors! It was so intense, it felt as if the entire surrounding was painted red!
