Ian Gaston Photography

Thanks for looking!

Nope, it’s a photograph :)

Exactly, that’s why I enjoy fooling around with perspective when photographing tafoni

Thanks! It was originally right side up.

Thanks so much Armand!

Appreciate that!

An busy section of coastal tafoni shot during a stormy day. I felt that rotating the image had more of a visual impact.

Breath the Alps… captured at the Mt Pelvoux, France

Thank you kindly. I was immediately drawn to this rock and the tide happened to be just at the right height. In other words…mostly luck :)

Congrats Christoph!

Thanks a bunch Christoph! Just a matter of luck for this one

Thanks Armand 🙏

Some light breaking through in Yosemite Valley

What drama! These are beautiful

Thank you kindly Rumyana

Thank you!

The irony is that I typically approach photography as if I’m shooting film. I have to admit though, that I enjoy the digital benefits with scenes like this. Thank you Jonathan

Thanks! Patience is a key factor.

This sandstone was beautiful enough on its own but I wanted to wait for the tide to come in to tell more of a story of how it was formed. After about 150 exposures, I landed on this one.

I’m glad you see that as well Bob! Thank you

Never saw it like that but you’re right!

Thank you Bob, I’m glad that first thought came to mind

Thank you kindly Christoph!

3 limpets caught in a swirling sandstone vortex

Glad you see the face Paul ;)

It does now that you mention it! Thank you Marv, I lucked out with the soft light

Thanks Sophie…the deader the better :)

A beautifully weathered Eucalyptus stump with some very unique grain structure. I’ve revisited this particular stump a handful of times and there is always something new to discover.

Nice, I can see that!

Thanks so much :)
