A brutal seven-hour climb through mud and dense forest to reach the Muhoza family. Silverbacks erupting into a fight with our group caught in the middle. Photographing Charles, the legendary Umubano silverback. Three weeks ago in Rwanda's Volcanoes National Park delivered some of the most intense wildlife encounters of my career.

Sometimes the best photography happens when you least expect it. During a conference weekend in Las Vegas, I found myself with camera in hand as the desert sun painted the Bellagio fountain in pure gold.
