Give the gift of photography this holiday season!

This sunset took place at Arroyo Burro beach in Santa Barbara in Dec. 2013 -- perhaps the most spectacular sunset I've seen in my 21 years in Southern California. BUY IT

It's that time of year: you need to find an easy hassle-free gift for that certain someone that can be easily purchased over the internet.

My prints can be purchased as ready-to-hang. All you have to do is pick out the image you want and select a size.

I offer two easy choices:

•Ready-to-hang metal prints are actually printed on aluminum with rounded corners. Here's a video showing what they look like. An 8 x 12 print is $70 and 12 x 18 is $95.

•Ready-to-hang thin wraps are printed on photo paper and then wrapped around gator board. Here's a video. An 8 x 12 print is $70 and 12 x 18 is $95.

Shipping to addresses in the lower 48 typically costs $17 for three-to-five days, $24 for FedEx two-day delivery and $33 for overnight delivery.

To purchase a print, click on the link below each photo, then select "Wall Art" and then pick either the "Thin Wrap" or "Metal option."

That's it! Below are some more photos that I think make good gifts along with some information about where they were taken.

Jackson Lake from a kayak

A few photos I took in July during an early morning paddle on Jackson Lake in Grand Teton National Park. I had forgotten to process these -- the top of which I really like.

Skyscrapers in Los Angeles

Shot most of these for Zocalo Public Square to use for banners and promotion of their recent set of stories asking if L.A. is still a city of big dreams. They were looking mostly for skyline pics but also some that showed the old and new in L.A. Fun exercise to shoot -- and interesting to see how they used some of the new pics as well as older ones.
