PHOTOS OF THE DAY!
This was my amazing view on October 25th, 2015. I was up on the Lucerne, Switzerland old wall tower for about 2 hours waiting for the sunset. I was really blessed with an almost perfect evening, it wasn’t too cold, there wasn’t too much haze in the air, there was mostly blue sky with feathery clouds mixed in, and then the blazing orange sunset over Mount Pilatus. I took about 400 photos in that 2 hours, so I will be posting more from that day on this website, so I hope you come back to check them out. I also wrote more about this evening in this portfolio post, Lucerne Switzerland Sunset View From Tower

“You don’t take a photograph,
you make it.”
“ You’ve got to push yourself harder. You’ve got to start looking for pictures nobody else could take. You’ve got to take the tools you have and probe deeper.”
“Which of my photographs is my favorite?
The one I’m going to take tomorrow.”
