On Assignment with National Geographic Photographer Stephen Alvarez and the Nokia Lumia 1020

Welcome to a journey like no other. A ten-day photo assignment covering vast distances, iconic panoramas, and wildly unpredictable conditions with only one piece of equipment - the Nokia Lumia 1020 smartphone.

See highlights from this exhausting and exhilarating expedition through the American West. Shooting from wind-tossed planes, dangling off ropes, and scrambling up rock pinnacles to capture action and landscapes before dawn until well after those spectacular sunsets.
