I like this shot because of the contrast between the “fishbird” and his simple equipment and technique and the fishermen and their methods. My bets are on the bird for getting the biggest haul. This photo was taken in the bay at Sayulita Mexico.

Mexican Beetle
It is hard to take a bad photo of an original Volkswagen Beetle. They have at least as much character as any other car out there. I am probably influenced because I grew up in the era of Herbie the Love Bug. In fact one of my childhood memories is of actually seeing a bug painted in Herbie colors on the way home from seeing “Herbie Rides Again” in the theater in about 1975. Now I’m just babbling…
Cattails on a Frosty Morning
I found these cattails (along with the machine) while out for a photo-drive this morning. I really like the colors and the amazing lighting.
Reach
This one was also taken in Puerto Vallarta at our hotel while I was waiting for my wife to email the kids. I never mind waiting when I have my camera along. That’s when I often find stuff to shoot.
Solitude
I took this with my 300mm telephoto. This windsurfer was way out there all by himself enjoying some great wind. He was really flying.
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.
Another View of the Same Scene
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.
