Nor-Cal Flow is a project spanning the course of three collections, which will showcase the amazing water features that Northern California has to offer.

Every summer, the entire state endures difficult wildfire seasons, with some of the most breathtaking areas in California being destroyed in the process.  In 2021 alone, one third of Lassen National Park has burned, all of Lake Tahoe was at risk of burning, and many other lesser known areas were also at risk; thousands of people have been displaced and/or lost their homes.

Forty percent of the places captured in this first collection have burned, potentially making these images the last of their kind, and they will never be the same in our lifetimes.

I have strived to capture the beauty of these places, frozen in time, and 20% of all the profits from all three collections will be donated to the California Wildfire Relief Fund.

Nor-Cal Flow Volume I

Although this image does not show the daytime colors that can be found at Summit Lake in Lassen National Park, it does show the beauty in a different light. With Lassen having nearly no light pollution, astrophotography is just a must. Summit lake is usually perfectly calm, which makes for incredible reflections like this one. But unfortunately, the trees that are on the south side of the lake, which are shown in this image, are now charred black sticks. They will no longer look like the beautiful pines they once were. But now they provide new beauty, beauty that I cannot wait to capture under the Milky Way again.
