From towering icebergs and sculpted sea ice to quiet town scenes and everyday life in Ilulissat, these photos capture the light and landscape of Greenland in late August 2025.

This gallery is just a taste of the places, people, and moments that made this trip so memorable.

Stargazing is a fun way to connect with the universe. You feel grounded and no longer so big in the world. It also helps me feel connected with family members who have passed on and a sense of love I have for them. I am reminded just how little we understand of this world, but am blown away by the discoveries.

Who doesn’t enjoy a beautiful sunset. My favorite is blue and golden hour at the coast. It’s all about the way it lights up the mountains and the waves. I often capture my best work in these moments.

I simply love living near the coast, enjoying fresh ocean breezes and being in the shade of large trees. As a person who values these special places and the conservation of these properties, I am so thankful to have this opportunity to enjoy these lands with gorgeous views.

Many couples have opted to have their elopement or wedding pictures taken at Hug Point. Back in 2018, I photographed this cute couple Julia and Hank as part of the Let's Go Workshop. The way they looked at each other madly in love was what made this workshop unforgettable.

On the night of December 18, 1975, the vacated Playland Pier (known as the Barbary Coast for the previous few years before it went out of business) mysteriously burned down. It was the end of an era and forever changed the face of Coeur d'Alene's waterfront and City Beach.

Playland Pier offered a number of rides and attractions including (over it's tenure) a Merry-go-round, Ferris Wheel, bumper cars, miniature train, small roller coaster called the Hey-Day, revolving swing ride, Loop-o-plane and a penny arcade. Between Coeur d'Alene's history as a tourist and vacation destination and with the opening of Farragut Naval Training Station, Playland Pier became a hugely popular place.

My grandparents loved Disneyland and Disney World. Here are some image that I found in my grandparents slides that show Disneyworld back in 1975
