Sleepy Hollow was taken on a spectacularly foggy morning in the Val d'Orcia region of Tuscany, Italy. The evening prior to this was rainy and warm. When the rain stopped later that night, I knew there would be a high potential for fog the next day. In the morning, we drove in the darkness to this spot and as the light of dawn arrived, we saw incredible fog in all the valleys surrounding us. This image was made using a telephoto lens, which isolated these trees in the frame. The mood was spooky and surreal, and reminded me of Sleepy Hollow.
Today, I often travel with the sole purpose of exploring and putting my own photographic touch on these places. I enjoy traveling to both popular destinations, and those off the beaten path. I shoot primarily landscapes, cityscapes and the details in between.

About author:
My interest in photography began long before I ever picked up a camera. As a kid, I remember reading National Geographic magazines and dreaming of seeing the places featured. The photographs transported me to these locations and brought the stories to life. Later in life, I had my first opportunity to travel abroad. I took photos of everything, and in my mind each one was going to be amazing! Upon arriving home, I discovered that the photos were blurry, noisy, lacking detail and otherwise uninteresting. This was the catalyst to my photographic journey. I never again wanted to come home from my travels to be let down by lackluster photos. With that in mind, I dedicated countless hours to researching and learning photography.Today, I often travel with the sole purpose of exploring and putting my own photographic touch on these places. I enjoy traveling to both popular destinations, and those off the beaten path. I shoot primarily landscapes, cityscapes and the details in between.
