United States / Clay
Beech Ridge
Beech Ridge sits in the Town of Clay, United States, and lends itself to a focused, minimal composition built around gentle ridge lines, tree cover, and layered horizons.

China / Huazhou
丛林穿越
In Huazhou, China, 丛林穿越 offers a versatile setting for cityscape and travel photography. The results depend less on the landmark itself and more on how you work the surrounding streets, edges, and viewpoints.

Egypt / Mallawī
Small Aten Temple
Set on the Amarna plain near Mallawī, Egypt, the Small Aten Temple is a low, linear archaeological footprint framed by desert slopes and vast sky. It rewards patient, pared-back framing more than spectacle: raking light brings out mudbrick textures, long lenses compress the escarpment behind the ruins, and a single figure can anchor scale without...
