Samuel P. Taylor State Park

About a month ago my girlfriend and I camped for a couple nights in the redwoods at Samuel P. Taylor State Park in Northern California. The trees were beautiful and it was great to get outside.

Below are some of my favorite images from the weekend. All the pictures were created using a Canon EOS R5 and an RF 15-35mm lens or EF 70-200mm lens. The pictures were edited in Adobe Lightroom Classic.

San Simeon, California

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.

Woolsey Fire, Malibu, California

Last week I drove to Malibu, California at sunset to photograph some of destruction of the recent Woolsey Fire in Southern California. The fire burned to the coast. I started photographing along the PCH until I stumbled upon a small community of houses where I came across several houses that got burned down. It was an incredible experience that makes you consider all the things it’s easy to take for granted.

All the photographs were taken with a Canon 7D Mark II along with a 24-70mm lens. The photos were predominantly edited using Adobe Lightroom in combination with Nik Color Efex Pro.
