Just feeling like some green today ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am wishing, I could be back here right now! Fun times running around in the forest getting attacked by swarms of mosquitos. It's always nice seeing a landscape come to life once the sun touches it. This picture was taken in around Index City, WA when I was driving between Colchuck Lake to Mount Rainer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @ig_shotz_le @ig_color @earth_shotz #earth_shotz @moods_in_fram #moods_in_frame @creative_ace #creative_ace @Washingtonexplored #washingtonexplored #westbysouthwest #cascadiaexplored @washingtontrails #washingtontrails

Volcano Mount St.Helens ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was seeking for shooting wildflowers from Johnston Ridge Observatory but I was bad planning from me. It was too early in May. The Johnston Ridge Observatory was still closed. So I scouted out to find another composition. I have found this with the huge three rivers (I think it called Toutle River if I am not wrong) as leading guide to the Volcano Mount St. Helens. I am hoping you do like it. 🌋 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @Washingtonexplored #washington #Oregon #Washingtonexplored @nationalparklife @nationalparklife @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored @iglongexposures #Washingtonexplored @igworld_global @natureonly #St_Helens #washingtonhikes @noriegaphotography #westbysouthwest @marcadamus #special_shots

Cottonwood Canyon ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A field of wildflowers fill the slops in Albion Basin at Alta Ski Area in Little Cottonwood Canyon, Uath as the first rays of sunlight bathe Twin peaks and Mt Superior after crazy weather. All the seasons, I have seen them in that day. It was rainy, windy and calm to get Rainbow 🌈😂. 🌹HAPPY EID🌹 🌹كل عام وانتم بالف خير 🌹 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @nationalparklife #utah #SLC #majestic_earth #photography #landscape_captures #landscape @majestic_earth_ #bestofinstagram #instagood #utahdotcom #werutah #travelphotography @worldtravelscapes #utahgram #utahspots #nationalparklife @nationalparklife @utahspots #unrealutah #hike_utah @werutah #splendid_earth #cascadiaexplored @igworld_global #utahtravelers @utahisrad #utahisrad

Canyonlands ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One of my favorite experience was going canyoneering with my friend John. I would like to thank him for teaching me. Especially to learn gear names like Harness and ATC and how to use them. I remember looking down the first rappel, it was an exciting and scary feeling 😱. After the third one I went through it. There were 7 rappels total. When I was down between the walls I got an extraordinary feeling that these walls are an amazing untouched by humans 😍. Also, I remembered, on the fifth rappel we get stuck over one hour because a knot in the rope got stuck in the anchor. So John decided to climb up to fix it and he did💪. While I was helping him, I scratched my Apple Watch ⌚️😩, but the most important thing is we got out safely. When we finished, we rewarded ourselves by doing BBQ and we used my moms homemade spices for the chicken. After that, John got addicted to her spices 😉😂. Lastly, I would like to thank John. He left a big mark on my heart. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @milesmorganphotography @nationalparklife #utah #majestic_earth #photography #landscape_captures #landscape @majestic_earth_ #bestofinstagram #instagood @utahdotcom @werutah #travelphotography @worldtravelscapes @utahgram #utahspots #werutah @nationalparklife @nationalparklife @utahspots @unrealutah @hike_utah @werutah @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored @igworld_global @utahtravelers @natureonly @milesmorganphotography #caynonlandsnationalpark

Court of the Patriarchs - Zion National Park ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Court of the Patriarchs is a set of sandstone cliffs in Zion National Park. They are named for biblical figures Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. That one in the middle called Isaac peak. It was one of my successful trips in my life. It was a clear early October sunset. It was a magical feeling as the sun started slowly lightened the top of the rocks while I was freezing insid the Virgin River .... but It's worth the pain 😂 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @nationalparklife #utah #majestic_earth #longexpoelite #photography #landscape_captures #landscape @majestic_earth_ #bestofinstagram #instagood @utahdotcom @werutah #travelphotography @worldtravelscapes @utahgram #utahspots #werutah @nationalparklife @nationalparklife @utahspots @unrealutah @hike_utah @werutah @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored @igworld_global @utahtravelers @natureonly #zion @noriegaphotography @shainblumphotography #special_shots @longexposure_shots #longexposure_shots #zionnationalpark

Arch Rock ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have enjoyed sneaking out into the Indian Sands Trail while exploring the Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor on the Oregon coast. In 2014, I have found those an awesome view, but the weather wasn’t great. Thus, I have decided to visit it again after three years. So here we go, I get what I want. hopeful that you enjoy it. ⛰🌊~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures #coast #🌊 #sunrise @Washingtonexplored #washington #Oregon #Washingtonexplored @nationalparklife @nationalparklife @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored @iglongexposures @igworld_global @natureonly #longexposure_shots #arabpx @westbysouthwest #westbysouthwest

Reflection of Colchuck Lake ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the past summer when I was able to backpack through the Enchantments of Washington State to see the great reflections of Dragontail Peak at Colchuck Lake. It was a long drive around 13 hours driving to reach the trail. Also, followed by 8 miles round trip and the elevation gain is 2300ft. It is rated as difficult trail accounting to #Alltrails . Besides of that, you should have a northwest forest pass. I highly recommend the visit. One of the most beautiful spots in the whole of the Pacific Northwest region and the Cascade mountain range in the state of Washington is the Alpine Lakes Wilderness, which includes many breathtaking landscapes full of lakes, alpine passes, trees and all of that comes into view in a spot like Colchuck Lake. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @Washingtonexplored #Washington #Washingtonexplored @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored @iglongexposures @igworld_global #longexposure_shots #Nightimages #nightsshooterz #astrophoto #photopills #nightshooters #nightpics #longexpoelite #westbysouthwest

Holy Spirit ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It had been a long and adventurous day with many miles driven and hiked. I'd visited Panther Creek Falls, Falls Creek Falls and tried to make it to McClellan falls, but I said, I have to stop for Spirit Falls first. This was one of the most challenging hikes I have done. The Spirit Falls in the Columbia River Gorge on the Washington Side in Washington. Hard to attain with no real trail and a very steep ascent is necessary to get down. It was 105 degrees outside, but I still wanted to see this magical place. Love the crazy aquamarine blueish spectacular waterfall. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @Washingtonexplored #washington #Oregon #Washingtonexplored @nationalparklife @nationalparklife @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored #cascadiaexplored @iglongexposures @igworld_global @natureonly #Panther #Creek #Falls #arabpx #spiritfalls #spirit_falls

River Through Zion ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This was one of the better sunsets that I get. I was fortunate to even have photographed it. While most people line up on the bridge to photograph the iconic watchman and virgin river at sunset, I decided to try a different approach and a new composition. I parked alongside the road and scrambled down to the river crossing one of the many foot bridges there. I stopped at a spot where the river curved, but I found the water to be a little lackluster in terms of rapids and movement. So I began heading down river and of course just moments before the sky was about to explode. I would find a small opening and scramble down only to find there was no composition there. Finally, with the light just beginning to fire up in orange hues, I found myself climbing over fallen trees hoping not to break a leg or drop my camera. after that, I found a great tiny waterfalls I have decided to add it to my composition. I have seen a big rock in the middle of the river. I carefully made my way into the river above the rock and set up my camera. I was in the zone, I couldn't move because of how awesome the light was getting. It was nice to have photographed this icon in solitude, away from the masses, and to see this incredible display of light. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ مبارك عليكم الشهر جعلنا الله من صوامه وقوامه #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @splendid_earth @splendid_shotz #splendid_shotz @nationalparklife #utah #majestic_earth #photography #landscape_captures #landscape @majestic_earth_ #bestofinstagram #instagood @utahdotcom @werutah #travelphotography @worldtravelscapes @utahgram #utahspots #werutah @nationalparklife @nationalparklife @utahspots @unrealutah @hike_utah @werutah @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored @igworld_global @utahtravelers @natureonly #zion #zionnationalpark @chipphillipsphoto

Sierra Nevada Mountains ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One of my favorite places in California is The Owens River in Eastern Sierra. It has a special and different recreation area than all of California. I love this area. I hope you like it. 🤗 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @nationalparklife #majestic_earth #photography #landscape_captures #landscape @majestic_earth_ #bestofinstagram #instagood #travelphotography @worldtravelscapes #utahspots @nationalparklife @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored @igworld_global @natureonly #Sierra #Owens_River @ryandyar @marcadamus @shainblumphotography

Panther Creek Falls ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Taken while visiting Panther Creek Falls last spring. I fell in love with Panther falls through photographs and have always wanted to check it out. It’s a fairly small waterfall, but visually it is one of the most unique I have ever seen. There is no developed route to the base of the falls and the "path" which leads there is quite sketchy, not very easy, and starts with a rope, but so worth it. When I got there, it was hard to find a new composition, so I decided to hike up and scout it again. I was satisfied when I found this composition. To take this shot, I had to jump to a rock in the middle of the river but the water current was strong. I felt that the water was so strong I couldn’t do it alone. Then I saw @the_vandergram and thankfully he gave a hand and I jumped to the rock and he handed me my gear. Another difficult challenge was needing to place my camera an inch above the water. The problem is that the water spray was so bad that it was impossible to keep my lens clean and take the exposures at the same time. Luckily, @the_vandergram helped me out again. Hope you all enjoy, and thanks for taking time to look. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures #oregonexplored @Washingtonexplored #washington #Oregon #Washingtonexplored @nationalparkgeek @nationalparklife @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored @iglongexposures @igworld_global @natureonly #Panther #Creek #Falls @shainblumphotography @ryandyar @marcadamus @westbysouthwest #westbysouthwest

Reflection Canyon ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Reflection Canyon; located in a remote side of Lake Powell, Reflection Canyon is less known until it was made famous by photographer Michael Melford on NG. This place has always been on the top of my list. This March, together with my friends, we started to discover this mysterious area. The hiking was not easy at all, which started with around 50-mile dirt road along Hole-in-the-Rock Rd and followed by a approximately 20 miles round trip hiking, without any established trail or landmarks. After around 6 hrs of hiking, we finally arrived at this amazing place, and the overcast sky cleared up as a reward for us. The reflection of the blue sky and amazing clouds on the greenish-blue water best explained the meaning of Reflection Canyon. Hope you all enjoy the dreamy scene captured in this photo:) Tip before you go there: you should consider the water wisely. I carried four liters of water and that wasn't enough for me, but thank God the night before we hiked in it rained, so we could filter water as we hiked. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @nationalparklife #utah #majestic_earth #photography #landscape_captures #landscape @majestic_earth_ #bestofinstagram #instagood @utahdotcom @werutah #travelphotography @worldtravelscapes @utahgram #utahspots @werutah @nationalparklife @nationalparklife @utahspots @unrealutah @hike_utah @werutah @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored @igworld_global @utahtravelers @natureonly @tracyleephotos @marcadamus @shainblumphotography #alltrails @alltrails

Embracing Nature ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On my way to Lake Tipsoo! I saw this plant along the hiking. I never saw this plant before. They have a very beautiful green leaves. Maybe because they only grow on high mountain. I was drawn to the way the leaves intertwined with each other; it seemed almost as if one was supporting all the others, and that if any one was removed, the whole system would fail. I named it "Embracing nature". I have found so many names for this planet known (Corn lily, Veratrum and Indian poke). It is very toxic, and can even kill a human if ingested in large quantities, but it is really pretty. I hope you like the picture.

Falls Creek Falls ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Falls Creek Falls in the Columbia Gorge, on the Washington side, near Carson. These falls are pretty amazing, and the trail leading up to it is just as wonderful. It's about 2 miles I believe from the trailhead that lead to this spot. Earlier in the day I visited Spirit Falls but I haven’t finish it yet. what an amazing waterfalls! I wish to visit it again.

Frozen Donut Falls ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Last Saturday, @rossthompson.photo and I hiked to Donut Falls in Big Cottonwood Canyon, UT. Donut Falls is a small cave that partially freezes over each winter. Among the dozen other perspectives of this falls, I tried to get my own to include the swirling water motion. The weather was freaking cold, especially after I dipped half of my body in the freezing water. When I was done, I could barely feel by legs. In that moment it felt like Paraplegia (lower paralysis). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #DonutFalls #Big_Cottonwood #utah #majestic_earth #photography #landscape_captures #landscape @majestic_earth_ #bestofinstagram #instagood @utahdotcom @werutah #travelphotography @worldtravelscapes @utahgram #utahspots @werutah @nationalparklife @nationalparklife @utahspots @shainblumphotography @unrealutah @hike_utah @werutah @splendid_earth @cascadiaexplored @iglongexposures @igworld_global @utahtravelers @natureonly @milesmorganphotography @noriegaphotography

Another Planet on the Earth ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The White Pocket is an isolated place, hard-to-reach patch of sandstone hidden within the desert expanse of Vermillion Cliffs National Monument near the Arizona/Utah border. The entire area is covered in a gray rocky layer, sometimes only a few centimeters thick, above the red sandstone where the formations heave and drip that makes the entire landscape look like as if it was covered with icing sugar. In some spots the stone layers are completely twisted, just like an enormous marble cake." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #WhitePocket #photography #landscape #travelphotography #landscape_captures @shainblumphotography @ig_shotz_le @ig_color @nationalparkgeek @milesmorganphotography #nationalparkgeek @Arizonaroamers #Arizonaroamers #Arizona #arabpx #arizonacollctive #westbysouthwest #arizonahiking #igsouthwest #arizonalife #creative_ace #earth_shot #moods_in_frame #natureonly @natureonly @earth_shotz #earth_shotz #moods_in_frame #saudisinusa

The Green Jungle ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here's a moody image from the Olympic National Park; more specifically the Hoh Rainforest. This one comes from a summer trip a few months back. there is no surprise as so many photographers in the PNW have similar types of images in their galleries. I didn't get a chance to really explore the rainforests of the Olympic Peninsula, but I made sure I would at least get one or two images I liked during my visit. It is definitely a place which I hope to explore more in depth, getting off trail and finding solitude in these magical forests. I feel all the place there is like black and white but just add green and yellow colors. There is no more colors, but definitely outstanding rainforest. Hope you guys enjoy this one!
