Last year, we hiked the lakes trail, but didn’t make it past the first one, Heather Lake. For this years gallery>> I was determined to see them all Emerald, Aster, and the otherworldly Pear Lake. Getting there came at a cost, as illustrated by the photo above, where my hiking companions Ted and Erica trod towards a valley in shadow. By the time we made it out, it was pitch black. You are seeing these pics because they hung in there! Big up!

I’m just back from a ten day shoot in Utah, DPing for a new Chris Peters project. All our footage was shot on the 5d Mark II, and so were these stills>>

Images from two hikes up Sandstone Peak.

I wish i could tell you where this hike is, but I’ve been sworn to secrecy. Why? It has the best swimming holes you have ever seen.
