In the New England area, Lobster boats are a typical sight. This one is a small river off Portsmouth Harbor. This boat was loaded up with traps ready for the trip out to sea.

This old white church was in the morning sun and was so bright and the trees around it being in shadows made this a perfect candidate for black and white. I took this with an old 35mm film camera.

What is more Americana than an old 1940's vintage truck sitting outside a cafe on the water front in New Hampshire.

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.
