Alaska is a place of beauty. This is actually one of the best times of year to visit, as the bugs aren’t out in force. The landscape is rugged, the glaciers are majestic, and the wildlife…well…wild.








Here are more highlights from Samantha’s travels around our country. She likes shooting something that is cool to start with, but then has a hint of life to it. In these, you’ll notice some interesting architecture, pretty vistas, and at least a peek of people.








We saw Samantha’s photos from New Mexico, now for a trip south of the border. She enjoyed seeing the sights of Chichén Itzá, Día de Muertos decorations, and even the beautiful surroundings as she flew away.










Samantha has traveled to New Mexico several times during the last several years. Her in-laws lived at the edge of a canyon overlooking the Rio Grande with national forest on the other side. The views are stunning, even in mountainous deserts aren’t your thing.









Samantha’s travels recently brought her to the Austin, TX area. While there, she was able to explore McKinney Falls State Park. She found beautiful old trees covered in ball moss, an ancient rock shelter, and water features running low during the winter.









It’s that time of year when we all wish it was a little warmer. Even better, we wish we were at the water! Here are some more of Samantha’s travel shots with water features from Michigan to Mexico and places in between!









Samantha has not been perusing photography as much as Meredith lately. That doesn’t mean she hasn’t been shooting away, though! Her family has been traveling a lot, so stay tuned for pictures from her travels. One thing she likes to capture is cool trees and their close up details. As you can tell, she’s a sucker for some Spanish moss and driftwood. Check out these beauties from south Georgia all the way to Wyoming!
