Death Valley National Park / May 10, 2023 by John Lazo

Over spring break I camped in Death Valley National Park for four nights. The park was one of the largest I’ve been to (only Yellowstone was comparable in size). It was great to get outside and explore the desert. I even experienced some snowfall at the higher elevations, which was pretty incredible. Below are some of my favorite photos from the trip. All the pictures were made on a Canon R5 using either an RF 15-35mm lens or an EF 70-200 mm lens. These were all edited in Adobe Lightroom Classic.

Joshua Tree National Park / January 30, 2023 by John Lazo

At the start of the new year I camped in Joshua Tree National Park for a few days with my girlfriend. It was chilly, especially with the wind, but great to be outside and enjoy nature. I recently purchased the Canon RF 15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM lens, so it was an awesome opportunity to experiment with it. I was particularly impressed with its detail in the middle ground, especially at f/11.

Below are some of my favorite images from a great start to the new year. All the pictures were made with a Canon EOS R5 using either a 15-35mm or 70-200mm lens.

Lakeside, Oregon, Grand Canyon National Park, & Flagstaff, Arizona / October 24, 2021 by John Lazo

In early September, my sister and I took a road trip to Lakeside, Oregon for a week. Then we headed out to the Grand Canyon for three days. We camped on the East Rim for two nights and then camped on the South Rim for the final night. Finally, we spent a couple more days visiting my girlfriend in Flagstaff, Arizona. The experience was awesome, and was such a great way to end the summer.
