Pisa Baptistery

This is a very old shot I took in Pisa, Italy at night.  The exposure, if my memory serves me correctly, was close to a minute.  Although the sky looked pretty much black to me, the film picked up the true color of the sky if our eyes were more sensitive.

Grand Prismatic Spring

If you are ever visiting Yellowstone National Park you will likely see the Grand Prismatic Spring.  It must be one of the easiest things to get a good picture of.  God created the amazing artwork and you just have to take a picture of it.

After the Fire

After spending a few days at Yellowstone National Park the kids were getting geysered (sp?) out so I set off on a whirlwind tour of the Norris Geyser Basin by myself.  On my hike to the basin I passed through this area burnt by the fire.  It was quite eerie walking through it but the sky was incredibly blue  which made it a great day for pictures.

Sailboat and Liftspan

I love the blues in this picture.  Take notice of the snow on the hills in the background.

Five Boats – Salamanca, Spain

I took this shot while I was in Salamanca, Spain way back in 1991.  It was early spring so the boats hadn’t been cleaned out yet for the summer tourists to use.

Crosspoles

This is a photograph of a horse rounding the turn setting up for jumping a set of crosspoles.  I like this one because of the basically monochrome browns of the horses hooves and the sand contrasting against the freshly painted bright white and blue poles.

Fencepost – Kalamalka Lake

My family and I went for a bit of a drive last weekend up the valley to see the beautiful fall colors.  It was a good thing we did because the next day the temperature dropped to -10 C and now all the leaves are brown.  This photo is for my wife.  She just loves pictures with rows of various colors kind of like this one.

Flying Solo

I took this photo while waiting rather impatiently for the Great Fountain Geyser to erupt in Yellowstone Park.  After all the waiting for the geyser, I think I actually like this shot better than any of the geyser shots.

Greenwood Firehall #2

I think this is one of the coolest buildings I have seen around this area.  How can you beat a bright red building against a sky like this?

Windy Day in the Okanagan

This photograph was taken on a very windy spring day from Waterfront Park in Kelowna on Okanagan Lake.  I had to use neutral density filters to allow for a long enough exposure to catch the trees looking windblown.  I love the rich colors.
