Mammoth Lakes, California by John Lazo

I recently spent a few days in Mammoth Lakes, California with my girlfriend. It was a little warm, but so nice just to be outside and enjoy nature. Here are some of my favorite images from the trip! All the pictures were edited in Adobe Lightroom.

Lakeside, Oregon & California Coast by John Lazo

At the end of August, my sister and I took a road trip to spend a week in Lakeside, Oregon with a family friend. We decided to drive home along the PCH, camping along the Navarro River in Northern California for one night and camping south of Big Sur, California for the next. I absolutely loved the scenery along the way as we traversed down the Pacific Coast.

San Simeon, California by John Lazo

Last Sunday I drove up to San Simeon, California for sunset and stopped at a pullout along the PCH a little south of Hearst Castle. I was excited to get a colorful sunset since the last four or five times I’d gone out to photograph had been incredibly overcast.

Anyway, here’s a few of my favorite images from the evening. They were all made using a Canon 5D Mark IV and a 16-35mm lens. I used Adobe Lightroom and either Nik Color Efex Pro or OnOne Photo Raw to edit them.

All the photographs were created with a Canon 5D Mark IV along with a 16-35mm lens. The pictures were edited using Adobe Lightroom, Nik Color Efex Pro, OnOne Photo Raw 2017, and Adobe Photoshop.
