KODAK MOMENT of the Day

This is a rare shot of what is called a "Veil of Eggs" that was laid by a Goosefish at the New England Aquarium in Boston, MA. The veil is 56 feet in length, weighs approximately 25 pounds and is estimated to contain more than 1 million eggs.

This was taken while I was on a nature hike. I passed by a clearing dotted by bushes and grass — the wind moved them ever so slightly, and my eye picked up a flash of red. I looked closer, and snap!

Shot on the Shenandoah river on a warm summer day. This image takes me back to my boyhood when I spent many a happy hour with a fishing pole in my hand.

Nose-to-nose with one of our young rabbits. Taken March 2010 in Kingsville, OH.

I like the colors and texture of this photo. Also I like the face on the front egg. This photo was taken on Easter 2010 in Williston, Vermont.

I clicked this picture while on the way to my Delhi tour.

While visiting a raptor recovery preserve, I noticed this not-so-friendly guy peering at me through a cage. I quickly snapped this shot and left him alone.

Taken while on a hike in Yellowstone National Park.

I took this close shot of a sleeping baby rhino in September 2010. It has a hot and humid day and he was napping next to his mother in a shady spot on the sand.

During the daytime this dead tree is nothing, yet as the night approaches, it becomes a home for migrating birds. What a lovely sight!

This is a shot through the sunroof of my car during a spring rainstorm. The vibrant, wet seemed harbingers of spring.

My son has always been a creative soul...and loves to paint. When I took this picture it just screamed for color. So I adjusted the photograph to include both color and black and white -- which adds such depth and art to a simple photograph.

When it's feeding time, it seems these Koi try to see how much they can get, and beat the others to it.

I love visiting the farm this time of year to see all the new foals. This was taken at Birch Creek Farm in Cream Ridge, N.J.

This was taken to document our son's nursery. Every picture is very special to me, but I love this one because it captures the playfulness and love that we share!

Spring rain on the window made a nice, soft back drop for the Orchid.

A close-up of a pond where bubbles appeared after a rainstorm.

We have a gorgeous wildflower field that only blooms for a couple weeks in the spring. I checked it almost daily until I thought it was just right for a picture with my daughter.

A photo of a pink Calla Lily. I edited the image in Topaz (Adjust 4) to add a watercolor effect.

We spent the day visiting a friend at the lake, and enjoyed lots of fish, birds and of course frogs! I love the expression on my daughter's face after she picked up this frog :-)

These are hula-hoops of different colors. I see that they are popular again!

A photo of my sunshine -- my grandson Cameron.

A close-up of the Dahlia's petals.

This is a friend's adorable baby girl - I love when babies become so expressive. This little lady is going to have one great, BIG, beautiful personality! :)

An insect pollinator has so many choices in performing its valuable service of ensuring flowers of the same species are pollinated. Spring is here!

This is a picture of my daughter's friend pitching, taken during a softball tourney. As the game progressed, it started to get stormy out. I just love the way it looks with the ball in her hand.

The glow of pink evening light accentuates the skill of airshow pilots as they perform in tight formation with aerial maneuvers. This event was featured at the New Smyrna Skyfest located at the airport at New Smyrna Beach, Florida.

This nest was tucked into the pear tree in our backyard. I love the vibrant colors of the eggs.

I captured this image of my niece, Melanie, one summer afternoon. I love her eyes and how relaxed she is just laying in the grass. :)

This photograph was taken by one of my 6th grade students in our photography club at school.

Detail of an old Scottish cottage with a pretty window box.

I like this photo because it gives me a feeling of peace.

Every element of this shot just seemed to come together. But it was her looking at her daddy's empty boots that speaks volumes...without saying a word!

On Veteran's Day I came across this mounted U.S. Park Police officer, quietly standing vigil in Arlington National Cemetery.

In the northern climes, the ice breakup on the lakes is the sure sign of the arrival of spring and the renewal that comes with it.

Love the blue and yellow iris flowers and how they looked like they were dancing in the garden.

Taken on our front porch. A flower is a treasure to a little girl.

Ahhh...it's nice just to hang out in the backyard and relax.

Taken at Lyn's Water Front, Denmark.

I wanted to get creative with a pool shot and my lovely daughter was kind enough to model for me.

Taken in Frederick, MD last August. I used a wide-angle close-up.

Shot at the Arlington county fair at night. This was a time exposure on a tripod. August, 2010.

Helsinki's Samba Carnival is an event celebrated once every year on Helsinki Day, June 12th. Many colorful events are held on this special day and the Samba carnival is one of the most spectacular of those colorful events.

This photo is very special because it has all the element that I like in a picture. Shot at Shakespeare Park in Montgomery, AL

This is a picture of my daughter taken at grandmas pool. It was a big year for her because she no longer required floaties! You can see the excitement on her face as she goes to do another cannonball!

This is of my 4 year old grandson, who just loves tractors. It was taken at the Virginia State Fair. When I saw the big tractor wheel, I asked him if he would get inside the rim so I could take a picture. He crawled in, posed himself, and gave the greatest smile! It was adorable!

Picture taken at an event last year, and the evening festivities included a fireworks show. I snapped this with a American flag that just happened to be in front of the fireworks. I love it!

This shot was taken at the Heart of NC Criterium in Asheboro, North Carolina. I used a slow shutter speed on these racers, to try to capture a feeling of their speed.

Calm water in the Lyme Regis Harbour, England, is great for boat reflections. I captured this one of a visiting boat in late august :)

This was such a fun photo to take because of all the creative elements in play.

This was taken one afternoon at Fletcher's Cove, on the Potomac River in Washington, DC. The reflections and colors caught my eye.
