I'm off to the greatest mountains on Earth again, but this time it's a whole new ballgame. I'll be there in the heart of WINTER and am hoping to get some truly unique images and have some incredible adventures. Departing February 1st, 2009! Happy New Year to everyone and may it be an adventurous and rewarding year for all!

Welcome to the new website! I've added lots of new images and have started a new TRAVEL JOURNAL that I hope will give an added dimension to the images I show you here. You'll find new images from recent trips to Samoa (South Pacific) as well as the Seychelles off the coast of Africa. I will also be adding previously unreleased images from the Himalayas and South America. I am in the process of editing video I've taken in the Himalayas and South America and will be adding the videos to the TRAVEL JOURNAL soon. Thanks for checking out the site and if you have suggestions or other things you'd like to see, I'd love to hear from you!

It was just announced that my image 'Timeless' won the $10,000 Grand Prize in the Outdoor Photographer/Canon "Iconic 100 Places" contest this year. The image will be published in the November 2008 issue of Outdoor Photographer Magazine.

The 100 finalists in the 2008 International Conservation Photography Invitational have been announced and 5 of my images are among the 100. They will be on display at the Seattle Museum of History and Industry this month. The finalists were in the 'Landscape' and 'Indigenous Cultures' categories and can be seen here: Art Wolfe's ICP Awards
