An american classic car sitting in front of an old building with a hand made flag on it. You just don't get more American than that!

My 9 year old daughter and now hiking/photography partner on her very first mountain top! She loved it!!

This is my 9 year old daughter and hiking/photography partner. This was on her first photography trip. I love this photo in black and white.

I saw a spider web in my yard all covered in dew. I got my macro lens out and took a few shots before i realized the spider was inside watching me!! Creepy!!!

This little daisy was in my back yard and it just looked perfect. I had to pull out the camera with the 50mm macro lens and get up close and personal! I love the fact that it is basically just 3 color

I found this great birch tree grove in the white mountains of New Hampshire and the fall colors were popping!

This was taken on a recent photography trip to Acadia National Park, ME and was one of the classic photos that I wanted to capture. Timing was perfect and a foggy sunrise was a great canvas.

Birch grove in Acadia National Park, Maine on a recent trip. This is one of my favorite photos!!

A red bus cruises through the finely macadamized embassy road of New Delhi.

A fast approaching metro, first bellows a mighty siren. The wires, lines, poles, the track and a digital clock adds to the cosmopolitanism of the approaching metro.

Commuters waiting for the next metro form a beeline. At rush hours, people move about fast like honey bees.

A pigeon rests for a while on one of the few high rise buildings in central Delhi. The area is lush green and home to the high and mighty in national politics of India.

This mighty tree overlooks thousands of slow moving vehicles every day on the High roads of Kashmir cut through the arduous Pir Panjal range of Lower Himalayas.

A Metro Rail worker, tired after work, is looking at his reflection on the marble wall. He is sitting lonely in a corridor at the Mandi House Metro Station, New Delhi.

Got up in the morning to find this amazing skyline from my window bringing a new beginning, a new day, a new perspective and a new ray of hope.
