"A Fiery Tapestry", Los Glaciares National Park, Patagonia, Argentina
There are certain moments that etch themselves into memory. On this cold and unforgettable dawn, I witnessed the jagged Fiz Roy peak awash in the warmth of the morning sunlight, shrouded by low hanging clouds. Along a rushing creek,the bushes and grass were covered in sparkling hoarfrost, while the entire landscape burst into a vibrant display of the most stunning fall colors I had ever seen. In all my years visiting Patagonia, I had never before encountered such a breathtaking spectacle of nature's beauty.

《火红的织锦》，巴塔哥尼亚，阿根廷冰川国家公园。
有些时刻会深刻地留在记忆中。在这个难忘的黎明，我看到高耸的菲兹罗伊风沐浴在火红的晨光中， 被低垂的腰带云层所环绕。一条湍急的小溪指向山脉，冰霜挂满了树枝和草叶，整个场景都绽放出我所见过的最绚烂的秋色。 在我多年来拍摄巴塔哥尼亚的经历中，我从未遇到过如此梦幻的自然美景。

"Blue Icy Spires", Chilean fjords
Seracs are stunning natural formations of glacial ice, composed of massive blocks or jagged pinnacles that result from the intersection of deep crevasses on a glacier. These imposing and dangerous structures are both impressive and beautiful to behold.

"Larch Madness", Lake O'Hara, Yoho National Park, Canada
During the fleeting autumn season, lasting only a few weeks, a remarkable transformation takes place among the larch trees nestled high in the mountains. Their needles, once a lush green, are suddenly ablaze with vibrant, almost translucent hues of yellow and orange, setting the hillsides and crystal-clear mountain lakes ablaze with a fiery golden glow. The resulting landscape is an awe-inspiring, all-encompassing beauty that can only be truly appreciated while standing atop a hill, gazing out at the stunning amphitheater of pristine lakes and colorful larch forest, all set against a backdrop of majestic mountains, rugged cliffs, and an explosive sunset.

《金色山谷》，加拿大幽鹤国家公园欧哈拉湖。

"Red Hat", Swiss Alps
Before sunrise, a remarkable sight occurred as an orographic "cap cloud" hovering over a snow-covered mountain transitioned into a vivid red hue. These unique clouds are formed by the cooling and condensation of moist air forced up and over the mountain peak and slopes, shaped by horizontal upper-level winds into distinctive dome-like formations. The sudden change in color, and the juxtaposition of the brilliant red hue against the snowy mountain peak, was truly a breathtaking spectacle to behold.

《红帽子》，瑞士阿尔卑斯山
黎明时分，雪山顶上的帽状云变成了鲜红的色彩。 当潮湿的空气遇到山坡和山峰被迫上升后，温度下降，水汽凝结，导致山顶出现云雾。 山顶的水平方向的风把这些云层塑造成扁平的圆顶形的帽状云。

"The Eyes of the Dragon", Spain
Behold this remarkable sea stack along the coast of Spain, with its intricate formation resembling that of a dragon, complete with eyes that pierce through the mist. A true marvel of nature and a sight that will leave you in awe.

For this stunning scene to come alive, everything must align perfectly. The month must be precise for the sun to rise in the correct position, enabling its golden rays to seep through the sea stack. The tide's height must be exact, just enough to stimulate wave action in the foreground - a foot higher would make it unsafe to approach; a foot lower and the waves cease to be. Additionally, a faint mist must be present to scatter sunlight into brilliant, radiant beams. This breathtaking spectacle only truly unfolds when these elements harmoniously coincide.

《龙之眼》，西班牙海岸
这座位于西班牙海岸线上的非凡海蚀柱形态错综复杂，仿佛是一条巨龙，眼神犀利异常。它是大自然的真正奇观，一道让你惊叹不已的景象。 这张作品来之不易：首先月份必须合适，这样初升的太阳才能到达合适的位置，让金色的阳光穿透岩石上的洞；潮汐必须达到恰好的高度以使前景充满浪花 - 高一尺则无法安全到达，低一尺则前景的浪太少或无浪； 空气中必须有一些雾气，这样才能把将阳光散射成灿烂的光束。只有当这些元素和谐地汇合在一起的时候这个令人屏息的奇观才真正展现出来。

"Dazzling Horizon", Spain
Despite the cloudy and rainy weather, the sky began to burst with the most vivid and intense colors I had ever seen. In order to capture the moment, I had to venture close to the water's edge, repeatedly getting pummeled by the relentless waves. Given the risks, I decided against using my Phase One/Alpa combo, opting instead to rely on the reliable and versatile Canon EOS R5 for this particular shot.

《灿烂的地平线》，西班牙海岸
一整天都是阴雨。日落时分，天空突然燃烧成了我见过的最灿烂的晚霞之一。为了拍摄这张作品，我得非常靠近海水，海浪一波波打湿了我和我的相机。 这个场景用飞思和阿尔帕组合太冒险了，但佳能R5很适合这种情况。

"Hope in the Horizon", Spain
We woke up early and made our way to a well-known spot to capture the sunrise. However, upon arriving, I found that the location didn't quite live up to its reputation, and I didn't even feel inspired enough to take my camera out of my backpack. As we drove back along the main road, we were met with a spectacular display of colors in the sky, including a vibrant full rainbow. We had missed the show completely.

But there was no time to dwell on our disappointment. I quickly opened up the satellite map on my phone and randomly selected a nearby coastal area that seemed to hold some potential. After some brisk hiking, we stumbled upon a mesmerizing landscape of unusual rocks and arches. Although the sky had turned gloomy, a sliver of warm colors appeared on the horizon, and it ended up being our most productive day of the entire trip, as we discovered a multitude of uniquely beautiful locations.

《天边的希望》，西班牙海岸
一个充满了怪石和拱门的奇特之地。

This is an amazing rock formation in the coast of Spain. It took a lot to get this image – the knowledge of tides, the ability to find the right composition in a maze of chaotic rocks, and the technical skills to capture the dynamic of ocean.

《蛟龙饮水》，西班牙海岸
这是西班牙海边的神奇的礁石。要拍到这张作品需要同时满足很多条件： 合适的潮位，能在乱石堆中找到合适构图的眼光，还有能抓到大海动感的摄影技术。

"Mirage", Spain
I have never been a big fan of long exposure photography since I really enjoy capturing the actions, the power, and the dynamic of water. However, do it right, long exposure can create an eternal and dreaming feeling. It is a good tool in the hands of landscape photographers, as long as it is not overused or misused.

《东海仙岛》，西班牙海岸
我个人并不特别喜欢长曝光摄影，因为我爱捕捉水的动感和力量。但在合适的场景下，长曝光能营造出一种梦幻和永恒的感觉。 长曝光应该成为风光摄影师手中一个工具，前提是不滥用。

"Grand Finale", Grand Canyon National Park, USA
I have been using my Canon R5 with a lightning trigger to capture some stunning lightning strikes. However, I am not completely satisfied with the image quality of R5. Don’t get me wrong. R5 is one of the best 35mm digital systems out there, but if you are spoiled by the image quality of a digital back, it will be hard to look the other way. Unfortunately, at this moment, there are no triggers work with my Phase One IQ 4150.

I was chasing thunderstorms in the southwest of USA. When I saw this epic scene - the Grand Canyon, the awesome rainbow, the beautiful afternoon light, the non-stopping lightning bolts, and the storm – I knew that I had to “get the shot” in the highest quality. I need a new and unconventional way to make this image. I set up a medium format system (Alpa 12 STC Camera, Phase One IQ4150 Digital Back, Rhodenstock HR 50mm Lens) and a 35mm system (Canon EOS R5, Canon RF 15-35mm F2.8L IS USM) side by side, on two tripods, pointing to the same location. A Kase Armour CPL filter and a 6-stop ND filter, as well as a Lightning Trigger was used on the Canon system. The Phase One system was used to capture the ground (two images stitched together). The Canon system recorded the sky and the lightning actions. I then combined the sky from the Canon (need to resize it to match the Phase One image, of course) and the ground from the Phase One system to make this image. The lightning portion was a result of stacking several images to show more than one lightning strikes.

《盛大压轴》，大峡谷国家公园
我一直在使用带有闪电触发器的佳能 R5 相机来拍摄闪电。不过我对R5的画质并不完全满意。虽然R5 是目前最好的135数码系统之一， 但一旦习惯了数码后背的顶级画质后就很难回头了。 可惜目前没有哪个闪电触发器能触发数码后背。

前些天我在美国西南各地追逐雷暴。那天下午，当我看到这个史诗般的场景 - 雄伟的大峡谷、壮观的彩虹、美丽的午后光线、持续不断的闪电、和暴风雨时 - 我知道我必须以最好的画质来拍到眼前这个场景。这张作品是我的一个全新的、非常规尝试。 我把一个中画幅系统（阿尔帕 12 STC 相机、飞思 IQ4150 数码后背、 罗顿斯德 HR 50mm 镜头）和一个 135 系统（佳能 EOS R5相机、佳能 RF 15-35mm F2.8L IS USM镜头）用两个脚架并排架起来，拍摄同一个位置。 在佳能系统上使用了 卡色铠甲 CPL 滤镜和 6 档 ND 滤镜，以及闪电触发器。飞思后背用于拍摄地面（两张图像拼接成宽幅）。 佳能系统则记录了天空和闪电。然后，我将佳能拍的天空（当然需要调整其大小以匹配飞思的图像）和飞思系统拍的地面 拼接起来制作这张图像。闪电部分是叠加数张图像的结果。

"Strange Forest", Mono Lake, California, USA
These delicate and intricate sand formations by the lake are quite small. The camera has to be placed very close to the subject to get this imeage. A total of ten images were take for focus-stacking purpose.

"Aproaching Morning Storm", Uath, USA
I was leading a tour in the southwest, and our group were shooting some fantastic ground cracks this morning. When I saw a storm was approaching, and we jumped into action. I need a HR23mm lens to get the wide-angle shot, but I left it in my truck! I only had an HR 32mm lens with me. Well, when you stitch two vertical images (using the shift movement) of HR 32, you will get almost the exact same view of HR 23mm, with more megapixels of course! I discussed this topic here .

《沙漠风暴》，美国犹他州
我在美国西南带一个摄影团。这天清晨在拍摄一些精彩的地裂时候，远处的暴风雨在向我们逼近。 我发现我需要HR 23这枚超广角镜头，但那天早上我把它留在车里了，手头只有HR 32镜头。没关系，我在《顶级风光摄影器材》一文里提到， 把HR 32通过移轴动作竖拍得到两张拼接后，结果和HR23几乎完全一样，而且像素更高。

"An Epic Show", Los Glaciares National Park, Patagonia, Argentina
It had been cloudy all morning and as we stood there, the rain began to fall. While some people in the group were disappointed, I had a feeling that something magical might happen. Suddenly, my wish came true - the sun pierced through the clouds, casting a beam of light over Fitz Roy and creating a stunning rainbow in the sky. It was an epic scene, one of the greatest I had ever witnessed. I told everyone in my group to mount a CPL filter in front the lens, as a polarizer can make the colors of the rainbow more intense and much brighter when it been rotated at certain angle.

《绝世光影》，巴塔哥尼亚，阿根廷冰川国家公园
整个早上都是阴天，然后下起了雨。有人有点失望，我说很可能有彩虹呢。突然间我的愿望成真， 阳光刺破云层洒向山间，一道彩虹神奇般地出现在菲兹罗伊峰上。这是我见过的最美的场景之一了。 我赶快让大家都装上偏振镜 - 偏振镜在合适的角度可以让彩虹更加突出，

Nevertheless, I successfully captured the striking forms and surreal hues of lenticular clouds hovering above this extraordinary terrain.

《疯狂日落》，冰岛
在冰岛高地的鲜绿的苔藓、黑色火山和彩色山的上空，我看到了一个疯狂的日落。 在貌似外星地貌的上空，这些荚状云的色彩和形状实在是难以置信。 狂风卷起黑沙和碎石，人想站起来都非常难，更别说拍片或做任何事了。 但是我还是努力拍下了这难忘的场景。

《海边清晨》，美国俄勒冈海岸
不要让所谓“坏天气”来干扰你的拍摄计划。不要只会拍日出日落！ 这样的雾气弥漫的阴雨天其实是拍摄有气氛作品的最好天气。

"Boiling Potion", Oregon Coast, USA
I made this very different take of a classic Oregon scenery. A seemingly bottomless sinkhole constantly swallows the blue/green seawater. It looks like a pot of boiling magic potion. A CPL was used to remove the strong glare on the surface of the water so the viewers can see the green sea anemones. An ND filter was also used to make the swirls in the image possible.

《沸腾的魔水》，美国俄勒冈海岸
一个经典场景的新诠释。这个看起来如无底洞一般的海洞里，蓝绿色的海水看起来如西方神话故事里的沸腾魔水。 我用了一片CPL来消除水面反光，这样可以看清楚水下绿色海葵。另外一片ND滤镜用来延长曝光时间，让水面的泡沫变成一个个漩涡。

"Middle Earth Sunrise", Hunts Mesa, USA
Stood on top of Hunts Mesa, I saw a sandstorm was rolling through the Monument Valley beneath me. The rising sun casted some beautiful, soft, glowing light onto the endless mesas. It was yet another memorable morning.

《中土日出》，美国纪念碑谷
清晨，我站在纪念碑谷的后山上，看到沙尘暴从远方涌入脚下的山谷。 刚刚升起的太阳把美丽温暖又柔和的光撒在一座座山峰上。这又是一个难以忘怀的清晨。

"A Sudden Glory", Death Valley National Park, USA
Over the last decade, I have been trying to capture an image from this spot many times, but I never had one that I am completely satisfied with. On this day, the weather forecast app showed a very promising outlook. However, at the sunset time, dark clouds filled the western sky. Then, all the sudden, the sky exploded. The best show lasted less than a minute and I was only able to snap three images. However, it could not be any better!

《霎那辉煌》，美国加州死谷国家公园
在过去的十年里，我多次来到这个点拍摄，但从来没有得到一张真正满意的作品。 这一天，天气预报软件给出的预测非常让人期待，可到了日落时分，西边的乌云却越来越厚。 我依然来到拍摄点等待。突然，满天红云猛烈地爆发和燃烧。最好的时刻持续了不到一分钟。 我只有时间拍三张，但这足够了。

All the fantastic colors come together in one place.

《秋色织锦》，美国犹他州北部
犹他州的秋色绝不只是白桦树的金黄或枫树的鲜红。这里的棉白杨和各种灌木覆盖了大地山坡，形成了如梦如幻的红黄橙紫等柔美色彩。

"Autumn Kaleidoscope", Southern Utah, USA
Most people probably do not know that Utah is one of the best places to see fall colors. Here a cascade of brilliant colors comes from maple, oak, aspen, evergreen, and other shrubs explodes in front of me. What an incredible show!

"The Perfect Storm", Toroweap Point, Grand Canyon National Park, USA

At the sunset time, in the most remote section of the Grand Canyon, I stood on the edge of the cliff, waiting for the incredibly powerful summer storm moving towards me. Everything came together perfectly. Everything was how it should be - the most stunning view of the entire Grand Canyon, the perfect cumulonimbus cloud formation, the beautiful rainbow, the powerful microburst downpour, the best golden light, and most importantly, the storm was moving towards me and strong wind was blowing towards me (pushing me away from the edge of the cliff), so I could safely capture it up close while staying dry.

A few minutes after capturing this image, hail, rain, powerful wind, sand and stones blown up by the wind in the air, and non-stopping lightning strikes arrived. I had to run for my life. It was an experience that I would never forget.

《完美风暴》，美国大峡谷国家公园
日落时分，在这个大峡谷国家公园最遥远的角落，我站在万丈悬崖边，等着这个超强的雷暴顺着峡谷向我扑来。 一切都如同我期待的那样完美 - 整个大峡谷最壮观的视角、完美的积雨云形状、美丽的彩虹、强劲的微爆流、最美的日落光线。 最重要的是，这个雷暴是从远方顺着峡谷向我扑来，这样我才能等到它非常近的时候才拍摄 - 因为大雨尚未到达，而且前方微爆流 导致的大风是从我面前往身后吹，把我往悬崖后面推。虽然还是有一些风险，但我还是能靠近悬崖拍下全景。如果是旋风或风从我身后来， 我绝不可能站在离边缘那么近的地方。如果它从远方向画面外移动自然不可能如此壮观。如果它是从我身后来， 那此刻我只能找地方逃命，而不可能在悬崖边拍摄了。

拍下这副作品几分钟后，我四周狂风肆虐，飞沙走石，暴雨和冰雹狂砸，电闪雷鸣不断，我不得不从悬崖边缘逃离，躲到安全地方。这是一次永生难忘的经历。

"Last Strikes", Grand Canyon National Park, USA

As the last ray of sunlight shone down, a powerful downpour drenched the Grand Canyon while lightning bolts struck its towering walls, all at the same time. It was truly an incredible day to witness the forces of nature at play.

《残照》，美国大峡谷国家公园
日落前最后的阳光穿过西边云层之间的缝隙照亮了峡谷。眼前浓厚的积雨云下，暴雨和闪电落在峡谷之间。这真是难以置信的一天。

"Look to the Glory", Utah, USA

The fascinating mud cracks form a leading line toward the jagged blue mesa.

The huge Dixie fire of 2021 in California filled the sky of the entire western USA with smoke for many weeks. I was extremely disappointed when I was trying to shoot Mr. Rainier and the Glacier National Park, as I could hardly see the maintains. However, all was not lost. During my storm-chasing trip in the southwest, I was treated with beautiful light beams during almost every sunrise and sunset, thanks to the smokes in the sky.

《远山的辉煌》，美国犹他州
地面奇妙的龟裂形成了一条指向远方蓝色方山的引导线。

2021年巨大的美国加州迪克西山火让整个美国西部的天空充满烟雾。当我去雷尼尔山国家公园和冰川国家公园拍摄的时候，我非常失望，因为连山都很难看到。 但是单纯从风光摄影角度来说，烟雾并不完全是坏事。在美西南追逐闪电之旅中，因为天空中的大量烟雾，几乎每一个日落和日出我都能看到平时梦寐以求的这些光柱。

"A Beautiful Morning in Spring", Oregon Coast

The spring of 2021 witnessed an extraordinary profusion of lupine flowers along the rugged Oregon Coast. That year, I dedicated several weeks, from May to June, to traversing nearly every mile of the coastline. One enchanting morning stood out, gracing me with a mesmerizing ocean mist, a vibrant sunrise, and a sea of flourishing lupine blossoms.

《美丽的春晨》，美国俄勒冈州海岸

"Fiery Needles", the Needles District, Canyonlands National Park, Utah

In this April morning, in the remote Needles district, Canyonlands National Park, the clouds burned to vivid red, and the soaring needles reflected the fiery colors of the eastern sky. This is one of the most remote locations in the US southwest. We drove on the famous Elephant Hill trail, one of the most technically challenged 4x4 road in the US, for hours before reaching this location.

《燃烧的针峰》，美国犹他州峡谷地国家公园针峰区
四月的一个清晨，日出前光线染红了天上的彩云和直刺云霄的针锋群。 峡谷地国家公园针峰区是美国西部最偏远的地点之一， 我和伙伴们开着皮卡，驶过一条美国最艰难的4x4越野路之一，才到达这个地方。
