A silver car slides aggressively through a turn on a dirt road. Trees line the background. — First National Rally (2)
Competed in the L2WD class of the 2025 Rally in the Hundred Acre Wood. Placed decently well but still a lot of work to do. Having a great co-driver for the event made such a difference. River City Rally build great cars. Photo courtesy of David Cosseboom. Can't wait for the next event!

A white Subaru WRX drifts on a sweeping turn, on a field of ice and snow. Trees line the background, and it's overcast. Snow clouds are kicked up from the back of the car. — Ice Driving (x2)
Another shot from the final day of the event. I'm always amazed at the spots the photographers are willing to put themselves in, because their ability to get shots like these are a fantastic part of the event. All credit to them for this one - I'm just showing it off since I was driving!

A white Subaru WRX drifts around a sweeping corner on a frozen lake. Massive snow is kicked up behind it. — Ice Driving
Traveled to northern Wisconsin for the chance to get some experience with performance driving on snow and ice. One of the coolest experiences I've done. Photo is courtesy of the event photographers - they do amazing work!

A lone flamingo feeds in a small pool in a desert. All around are salt flats, white and dusty with a blue sky above. — Salt Flat Flamingo
Visited the salt flats in the northern desert of Chile. Wild flamingos galore, apparently they feed on a form of shrimp that manages to live in these small bodies of water. The sun is so powerful here that I felt myself burning already - surreal that these birds just shrug it off.

An otherworldly photo, with mounds of dirt that raise like spikes. The dirt is red and looks like Mars. — Mars-esque
The “Valley of Death”, which apparently is similar in terrain to Mars. When we got here, we knew we had to try climbing the hills so we ditched the truck and gave it a go. I don’t know if I’ve been anywhere else on earth like this, stunning beauty especially with the way the shadows cast.

Waves in a small cove, with a small pier on the right. Expansive blue skies above with a few clouds. — Hangaroa
My wife has long wanted to visit here, and on our travels around South America we were able to find a way to fit it in. The small town that’s here on the island is quaint and functional - and perhaps most importantly, has a few fun bars. (We’ll get to the cultural stuff in a day, it’s been a long bit of traveling)

A closed up storefront that’s covered in street art of a mouse in a trenchcoat. — Mouse Street Art
The shadows and colors on this made me double back for a photo. I wish I knew the artist - what a cool style!

Striking black cliffs with patches of ice and snow line a channel of water. The sky is gray and the reflection of the mountains is visible in the water. — Channel Reflections
We took a scenic detour through this channel and it didn’t disappoint. Some of the most stunning cliffs I have ever seen.

A striking blue glacier floats in Antarctic waters. The glacier has a series of ridges cut into it. — Resisting the obvious joke
Finally made it to continent seven, and the views don't disappoint. If anything they're hard to capture in photos! The sheer silence of the area is deafening, cut by random penguin calls and sounds of distant avalanches and iceberg shifts. Utterly magical.

A woman poses next to the railing of a ship. Over the water, the misty remains of some buildings can be just barely seen. The photo is black and white. — Arriving at Deception Island
A nifty photo of my wife as we finish dropping anchor in the harbor. We’ll use zodiac boats to get to shore.

Me dressed in black holding a blue coat, posing in front of some old rusting oil tanks. The ground is silty and soft, and stretches into the distance around me. Two penguins walk nearby. The sky above is blue with clouds. — Deception Island Landscape
A photo of myself that I wound up liking. It feels somewhat trippy to look at: the texture of the ground, the rusting remains of the old whaling station, and the two penguins to the left (one is not beheaded, it’s just scratching itself).
