Be sure to drop by my newly updated webstore! https://raphotog.com/store Welcome to Grand Teton Photography. In today's Video we are coming to you from Grand Teton National Park. My son and I decided we would take a hike to the Hidden falls as well as the Cascade Canyon. We were quite surprised at the scenery on the trail as well as the beauty and magnificence in Cascade Canyon. On the hike to Inspiration Point we realized we were close to what is called Cascade Canyon and just had to hike the additional mileage to get there. I am happy I had my camera along with us because there were a few beautiful images to capture along the way. I think you will enjoy this video to the hidden falls and Cascade Canyon. You can also purchase prints at www.raphotog.com Thank you everyone. See you in the next one. #landscapephotography #grandtetonnationalpark #NPS #robertanthonyphotography

Welcome to my Mammoth Hot Springs Yellowstone National Park video. In today's video from Yellowstone, we are visiting the Mammoth Hot Springs area. The Canary Springs overlook is a great spot to do some Landscape Photography. Particularly sunrise photography. As the sun comes up over the mountains to the east, it lights up the steam rising off of Canary Springs making for some very colorful, beautiful landscape photography in the park. Yellowstone National park has an endless supply of landscape photography opportunity. Today, as I photography the sunrise over Canary Spring, one of many spring formations inside the Mammoth Springs area, you will be treated to a couple of beautiful photographs that I was able to capture while visiting the Mammoth area with my son Levi. Join us as we hike around and visit the north side of Yellowstone National Park, the Mammoth Hot Springs area for some beautiful Sunrise and Landscape Photography. #landscapephotography #mammothhotsprings #yellowstonenationalpark #vanlife

In Today's Glacier National Park Video we are visiting Bowman Lake for an surreal Sunrise Photography Session. Joelle and I were staying at the Apgar Campground and some of my exhaustive research led me to the Bowman Lake portion of the park. The drive to the part of Glacier National to get to Bowman lake is particularly rough at about the last 8 miles. It was, for us, extremely worth it. You can buy any of the 3 photos in this video at my store under "Glacier" at https://raphotog.com/store

Please consider supporting me by purchasing prints from my website at https://raphotog.com/store Today we will be hiking the subway in zion national park. I was able to score a last minute permit for the Subway hike in Zion National Park. I wanted to finally photograph this epic hike down the long 10 mile trail. It was a beautiful hike. Sadly, I was not able to start the hike to the Subway until about noon, the hottest part of the day at Zion National park in the beginning of June. I did make it all the way to the Subway. Basically, you just follow the river all the way there. The river you walk along emanates right from the Subway itself. If I were to do it all over again, I would just follow the river. I didn't take enough water on this hike, so that was a huge mistake. I also learned that the special glow you find at the subway, making it extra special for photography, happens only in April and October. Given I will be there again in October, I may just make that hike all the way out there again. This time, I'll take a dry bag so that I can swim across to the water falls behind the spring which feeds this epic hiking destination. It makes for some really cool landscape photography. That's for dang sure. Please drop by my website to see more images that you can always purchase metal landscape prints from. https://www.raphotog.com Til next time. rob #vanlife #landscapephotography #thesubway #zion

Please consider supporting my by purchasing prints from my online store at https://raphotog.com/store In today's video we are going to Visit Theodore Roosevelt National Park for some Landscape Photography. In this video, I am visiting and staying at the North Unit and found some beautiful locations that I could not only shoot the Milky Way, but also some lovely sunset photos. Theodore Roosevelt loved this park. In particular, he loved the North Unit section of the park. If I am not mistaken, he lived out his final days up there. I really enjoyed the area. It's quaint, quiet, and not very busy. I think you would enjoy it up there should you choose to visit.

From a Great Free Camping Site on the Grand Canyon at the Jacob Lake Fire tower, I decided to spend a few days at the Grand Canyon Relaxing. Relaxing is not something I am very good at. The campsite was really great with bathroom as well as a fire tower to climb. It was a beautiful place to spend a few days on the north rim of the Grand Canyon. I tend to keep myself busy, all day, every day, even while trying to live the vanlife on the road. After my visit to the Marble Canyon Overlook, I made my way to the north rim of the Grand Canyon and spent some time in the Kaibab National Forest just Relaxing. Very hard for me to do, for sure! In this Grand Canyon Video, from the Kaibab National Forest, I invite you to join me for some climbing at the Jacob Lake Fire tower as well as some awesome Milky Way Photography. I know you will really enjoy your time spent here. Be sure to hang around to the end and check out the beautiful milky way photograph I was able to capture as yet another example of the wonderful landscape photography I was able to achieve from the Grand Canyon North Rim area known as Jacob Lake in the Kaibab National Forest. You can purchase the milky way landscape photo over the trees presented at the end of this video by visiting my website at https://realrob.net/store/p/overthetrees #vanlife #landscapephotography #grandcanyonnationalpark #northrim #milkyway

Please consider supporting my by purchasing prints from my adventures at my online store. https://raphotog.com/store In this Relaxing Music for Deep Sleep and stress Relief, I am going to take you 10,000 Miles across America through the eyes of my drone. This video is about a 45 minute run that you can simply listen to, watch without sound, or watch and listen both at the same time. It's meant to be completely therapeutic for those of us who are struggling with horrible stress, life anxiety and other such madness. Using my Mavic Air 2, I shot hours and hours of epic video footage while on my last vanlife road trip. I thought I would combine my absolute love of beautiful music with this epic video travel footage from my drone to give to you a video you can use to relax, unwind, listen to, simply watch, or even use to go to sleep with. We can all use music and such matter to bring us to a place where we can relax and unwind. In today's world, there's so much vying for our attention and life is just too short. It’s been on my mind lately to make a really long video that is nothing but scenery. If you know me, you know I love me some music. I thought… “A few people in my life enjoy the drone footage I produce.” I then further thought it might be best to have the video suited with relaxing music for deep sleep and stress relief. So with this concept, you can simply listen to the music, or turn off the sound and just loop the video, or you can use both. Sound and Video! #relaxingmusic #musicvideo #dronevideo #mavicair2 It was here that I think I have enough content I could produce beautiful scenic vids…while incorporating the types of music one could go to sleep to, or relax to, or relieve stress to. Music that I love…because, after all, this video is from my heart. 45 plus minutes worth (and I still have a ton more content!) This then is my first attempt at such a feat. You will have about 45 minutes of epic scenery from my most recent 10,000 mile journey across the country. Yes, I literally logged 10, 200 miles on this one. I chose the music myself and of course put all the content to it. For those of you that love music, for those of you that love the epic sights of this country, for those of you who need to step back and take a moment, breath, and let it all go, this…is for you. I love all of you. I hope you enjoy it, be it all at once, or in little bits and pieces.

Please Consider supporting me financial through my photography store at https://raphotog.com/store Visiting Oxbow Bend and doing some Sunrise photography in Grand Teton National park. Recently, a friend of mine came to visit me on part of my camping van trip on the road. We made our way to Grand Teton National park to hike and do some photography. The first order of business was to do some milky way photography, but then to move our way to an early morning photo session at the Oxbow Bend Overlook. A classic spot for landscape photographers in the Grand Teton National park. We were able to enjoy a hot cup of coffee as we waited for the sunrise over the Oxbow Bend area lake...eagerly anticipating it's rise to light the Teton Range beyond the lake with it's lovely warm morning glow. We were not disappointed in the morning sunrise as even some stray clouds make the presence by developing right over the peaks of the mountains adding some much needed texture to the sky for our landscape photography. What a beautiful place. I hope you enjoy this short video which takes you on our journey to photograph the lake with the mountain reflecting in the foreground of the photo. I always make the photos in my videos available to you at my website store for purchase should you wish to buy one of my awesome landscape photos on a metal background. Please enjoy. Love you guys. rob https://www.raphotog.com #vanlife #landscapephotography #oxbowbend #grandtetonnationalpark

Please consider supporting me financially by purchasing a print from one of my many adventures at my online store. https://raphotog.com/store Welcome to my Dodge Caravan Camper Van New Window Cover and Screen Idea video. In today's video I'd like to show you a few little changes I have made to the 2010 Dodge Camper van I travel with. I always like to try and get as much airflow in the van as possible without having to deal with bugs entering the space. I am going to show you in this video my two Roadie products screens, but also how I am going to cover the back windows and use screen across the back vent windows. On top of that, I am also going to show you my new storage platform. I removed the back seats this time and have built a platform across the back of it allowing me to use the entire space for storage. I hope you find this video about airflow and window screens in my campervan helpful. Enjoy.

Please consider supporting me by purchasing prints at my website. https://raphotog.com/store In this Grand Canyon Van Life Adventure video, I'd like to spend a few minutes showing you around my free camp site on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. I took the van out to the Marble Canyon Overlook, a treacherous drive down a 25 mile dirt road. Max speed of about 15 mph made this drive slow and arduous. I didn't at all enjoy the time trekking this drive. However, It was worth it. The van handled it okay and I really enjoyed the epic Grand Canyon views. My favorite thing by far was the constant visits from a family of hummingbirds. Often venturing inside the van and flying around, one even landed on my phone at one point while I was living life at the edge of the canyon. I would have enjoyed staying a little longer...but it just became far too hot to enjoy the stay. I may...and I say may...go out there again...only when the weather is cooler and less likely to be so hot. Enjoy.

Please consider supporting my by shopping in my online Store. Lot's of Robert Anthony Unique art. https://www.raphotog.com/store Welcome to Best Hikes in Grand Teton National Park including some awesome landscape photography tips. Today, as the fall color season is fast approaching, I wanted to make a video that might help you find your way around to a few key spots in the park. There is a lot to do in the Grand Teton Park. If you have never been, certainly it's hard to find exactly where to go and what to do. Since my last visit involved the places I mention in this video, I thought it might help you to be able to watch the vids and gather information that will help you plan your trip to the national park successfully. In this video, I will go over visiting the following stops inside the park. Oxbow Bend Hidden Falls Hermitage Point Colter Bay Cascade Canyon and the wonderfully beautiful Leigh Lake. Obviously, it's pretty insane to attempt to list the actual best hikes in the Tetons. The list would be far larger than 4. However, this list of hikes I have put together in this National Park will give you a good view of what hiking in the Grand Tetons is about. On top of that, I am going to give you some outstanding and Epic photography tips from a landscape photographers perspective. There are both easy and moderately challenging hikes in this video of the Grand Teton Park. If you were to follow my advice, you would be able to experience just about all things Grand Teton over a matter of a couple of days. I hope you enjoy this video documenting my view on a few of the best hikes in the park. If you have any questions, by all means, reach out to me and drop me a note. I'd love to hear from you either in the comments on this Grand Teton Best Hikes video or by email to me at rob@raphotog.com Thanks for watching. #landscapephotography #grandtetonnationalpark #hiking

Please consider supporting me on line at my Photography website. Lot's of beautiful art to purchase. https://www.raphotog.com/store Let's visit Wire Pass to Buckskin Gulch for some serious Landscape Photography! I found out about the Wire Pass Trail entrance recently while on a hike in the Bisti Badlands. I ran into a couple that asked if I had ever been to Buckskin Gulch. I had not and was certainly up for some new locations for Landscape Photography. I arrived at the pass about mid day. It's a really long drive down a rumble dirt road. Never the less, I made it to the Wire Pass trail around noonish so I could begin my hiking into the Buckskin Gulch. I'll tell ya, this was one really special hike. I have not yet seen a slot canyon quite like this one. I can see taking the time to head back here again someday. What a great trail for Landscape Photography #vanlife #landscapephotography #nationalparks #coyotebuttes #buckskingulch

Please consider supporting me by purchasing your one of a kind Robert Anthony piece of art at https://raphotog.com/store Today I am Hiking in Flagstaff AZ. My cousin Todd and I have been spending a number of days together catching up and doing some hiking. Todd moved to Flagstaff a number of years back from Phoenix and it's been years since we been in each other's company. We hung out constantly as kids doing all kinds of things...including hiking in the woods in Northern Michigan. Today I am in AZ with him and we are going to try our hand not only at more hiking the trails in Flagstaff, but also cutting some video and doing some photography.

Please consider supporting me by purchasing your own Robert Anthony art at https://www.raphotog.com/store Today you will find me in the Petrified Forest National Park Arizona. I'm going some photography and hiking in the " forest " per se. It's another stop on my National Park adventure Tours. The petrified logs dotting the landscape are really weird and are making for some great photography in the National park. I spent only a few hours her as they closed early and open late...bummer. #landscapephotography #vanlife #nationalparks #petrifiedforest In any event, I was able to grab a few really great shots of some really cool landscape on the main hiking trail in the Park. I hope you enjoy this short little vid and hike across the petrified forest inside the national park in Arizona!

While I was in White Sands New Mexico, I lost my sunglasses at night doing Photography. It was a real drag because I had just purchased the glasses for my photography road trip. The first stop on this trip was White Sands National Park in New Mexico. When I realized I lost my glasses at night after doing sunset photography, I decided I would head out into the New Mexico dunes known as White Sands (gypsum). While doing so I thought I would do some additional photography using my Samsung Galaxy S9! #vanlife #landscapephotography #nationalparks #nps #whitesands #newmexico

Please consider supporting me by purchasing Robert Anthony Original Art https://www.raphotog.com/store In today's video I am going to be photographing the Bisti Badlands New Mexico. ~ Rumble Version This ended up being my next stop on my 8 week road trip. It's in New Mexico. On the north west side of the state. Bisti Badlands is a protected wilderness. It's a vast expanse of land that contains many very interesting hoodoos and formations. The colors, shadows, and light made for really great photography. I think you will enjoy this stop in New Mexico. If you are ever in that general area, I don't think you can go wrong by visiting the bisti badland wilderness. You can see more about me and about the session as well as purchase photographic metal prints of the images contained in this video at www.realrob.net #vanlife #landscapephotography #nps #bistibadlands #bisti I hope to see you there.

The first stop on my 8 week van life solo travel road trip for photography is Visiting White Sands National Park in New Mexico for some serious photography. I decided to spend the evening visiting the National Park to get some epic sunset photography by doing a lengthy hike into the dunes and the dune fields. Purpose? Snag a beautiful sunset for my landscape photography video channel! I took the Nikon and the Samsung Galaxy s9 out for some evening work. I spent about 4 days in the area doing landscape photography and sunset photography. In this video, I'll take you around the national park and show you some of the sites as well as share a few beautiful photographs I took along the way. I love doing the landscape photography, but more importantly, I really enjoy taking you along for the drive. There are a lot of people who can't really make it to the places I go and I think it's so much fun to share the locations in video. The opportunity for the landscape photography in the national parks is outstanding, in spite of the volume of people. We will work our way through finding photography locations as well as photographing them in spite of the wind that is at times very strong in this particular location. You you like the idea of finding places to visit if you are traveling for retirement, you will find my upcoming series of landscape and hiking videos very inspiring and helpful. I hope you will subscribe, share, and like the video. Most importantly, I'd love to hear your comments. Enjoy and we will see you in the next one. Please visit and shop my website at www.realrob.net Oh, and by the way... The drone footage in this video is ALL captured legally. The drone was never launched nor landed from or on inside of the National Park boundaries and borders. Line of site was never once lost. Per policy memorandum issued June 16, 2014 of Federal law 36 CFR § 1.5, "The NPS has the authority to regulate or prohibit the use of unmanned aircraft from or on lands and waters administered by the NPS. As a result, the compendium closures required by the Policy Memorandum only apply to launching, landing, or operating unmanned aircraft from or on lands and waters administered by the NPS within the boundaries of the park. The closures do not apply to launching, landing, or operating unmanned aircraft from or on non-federally (e.g., private or state) owned lands located within the exterior boundaries of the park. The closures do not apply to the flight of unmanned aircraft in the airspace above a park if the device is launched, landed, and operated from or on lands and waters that are not administered by the NPS.

Please help support me by purchasing Robert Anthony pieces of Art from my webstore at https://raphotog.com/store I hiked The Wave in Arizona. Part of Coyote Buttes North. It is indeed an epic landscape photography spot. The Wave, and it's permitting process is pretty straight forward, although anxiety inducing. I had tried getting a permit to hike the Wave a number of times on line, but was refused every time. Since I was going to be in that part of Arizona for a number of days, I thought I'd simply show up at the daily drawing for wave permits and what do you know...I snagged a permit to hike this epic landscape photography location in Coyote Buttes North...in Arizona. In this short video, I'd like to take you along with me to see what I saw and enjoy a few of the wonderful photographs I was able to snap of this once in a lifetime, epic photography opportunity known as The Wave.

I thought I'd make a new video to go over some updates to my Dodge Caravan Camper Van Conversion. I spent 8 weeks on the road to the west in the Caravan. Before I left, I added a ton of upgrades to the van. Solar, new Jackery 500 batter, an Iceco DC powered fridge, lights, and a slat bed with memory foam mattresses. Another addition is a back kitchen as part of the main conversion. The Dodge does provide a good base platform for a campver van conversion. I think you will find the new additions in this video helpful and useful for ideas and suggestions in your van conversion. Check out the roadie products page at their website and also check out the Iceco freezers and refrigerators if you are planning a van conversion of your own. Drop me a note at my website. www.realrob.net #vanlife #jackery #rodeproducts #campervan #dodgecaravan Until the next one! rob #roadieproducts #bistibadlands #vanlife

Years ago Levi (my son) and I were teaching Ed how to ride a bike. Don't Hit the Stop Sign.jpg He really struggled with the concept. Through a series of ideas, finally, we found success. Levi and I dressed Ed in every kind of imaginable padding. Helmet, face guard from paint balling, water ski vest, elbow pads, knee pads, shin guards, wrist guards, jock strap, plastic jock cup to cover the weiner. He was 7 and deathly afraid…of everything. His utter fear of falling over and skinning a knee or something paralyzed him from doing it. Bike riding that is. Like many kids of his generation (he’s now 17), he was raised in a soft cocoon of protection with a grandmother and mother who didn’t allow him to be exposed to much of anything. One of oh so many Cryzo fests. That was his super hero name for a while. Cryzo. One of oh so many Cryzo fests. That was his super hero name for a while. Cryzo. He was actually afraid of walking on grass at that time, thanks to his grandmother. He was petrified of water, swimming, bike riding, you name it. Of course, I’m one to talk. My kids have some unnatural fears in life due in large part to some of the idiot ways I tried to protect them and worried over them when they were little. Happily, the boys chose service in the military. As a Marine, Jacob has had most fear kicked out of him. And as a Special Forces operative, last I heard from him, jumping out of planes at nearly 20,000 feet, Levi, too, has faced enough stuff to have most fear kicked out of his mind as well. Well, anyway, young Levi and I deduced that if he (Ed) were to take a roll on the bike, fall, and not be able to feel anything, perhaps he might develop some sense of safety. We were right. He did fall and fell hard the first time out with all the padding. He cried, but only for a moment, because he realized after falling, nothing hurt. We need this kind of walk into the areas of life that keep us paranoid and afraid. Padding to tell us we can do it and not die. Too many people miss out in life because they are afraid of something. Afraid of death, afraid of any kind of pain, you name it. It keeps a lot of people at home attempting to avoid the inevitable, as if they are going to, in some way, skirt or trick death. In truth, no matter what you do, no matter how may ways you try and prolong your life or minimize your chances at pain or dying, you will, and I mean WILL die at some point. God is in complete control of that. Not you, not your spouse, not your parent, not your doctor, no one. God turns off the switch on your time on earth. Period. Why not, then, attempt to do your level best to enjoy what you have been given here on this planet for the short period of time you are here? In this video, I elaborate on the story of the Stop Sign. It’s a metaphorical recounting of an episode that took place after Ed began riding his bike without all the padding and protective gear. He was finally able to live semi normally. However, as I discuss in this story, he did fall down again. Please give it a watch and learn how, as I have, that we will become, we will go toward, that upon which we gaze. Whatever it is that we are looking at is where our mind and body takes us. Whatever we are looking at is exactly what we will hit. At times, even against almost impossible odds. Give it a watch.

I haven't been releasing many videos as of late. The last bit of content I was able to gather was, in all places, in the Guadalupe Mountains last November. Since that time, I have been working my rear end off around the flower shop. I thought today I should start a new video about what is happening exactly. Here's the video. Follow me next week to Death Valley. It's going to be a much needed break. Love you guys! www.realrob.net

In today's video, I am rounding out my trip to Texas and the Guadalupe Mountain National Park system. I thought it might be fun to show you some of the upgrades to the van since I last took videos of it. A lot of positive and new changes. I also show you what it's like to stay over night in a Walmart Parking lot. Walmart is very friendly to RV life and Vanlife stop overs. I hope you enjoy it.

On what would be the last of my stops in the September Road Trip Photography tour, Ed and I stopped at Natural Bridges National Monument. We were able to snap a few really great shots, which you will see in this video. I hope you are able to enjoy the photography and the video. Please drop my my website for more photography and to see the images in this video. www.realrob.net

#vanlie A subscriber asked that I pose a video of my camping get up. This is a portion of the 2010 Dodge Caravan Build Out that I started. This is about mid build, but you get the gist. I am going to be posting a new video from my trip to Texas soon as the build for that trip has advanced quite a bit since this time. I hope you find this helpful to you.
