KODAK MOMENT of the Day

This picture of my son's baseball team was taken on a warm August (2012) afternoon as the boys waited for a tournament game to end before their next game. The photo is not posed and evokes a sense of boyhood summer fun that spans generations.

The vibrant colors of this fire hydrant caught my eye in Cartagena, Colombia.

Snapped this guy on a pink hollyhock. I think the background contrasts nicely with the bee's colors and the pollen drops just pop out of the shot.

In early 2013 I traveled through India. In Bhopal I saw these guy cruising through the streets of the Slum. They asked me to take some pictures of them

Rupert (top) is owned by my youngest daughter & is from a litter sired by Chase (middle). Chase is owned by my oldest daughter. Gus (bottom) is my second golden. What a great breed! The photo was taken at Buck Lake, Ontario. We have a cottage there. The whole family looks forward to visiting, especially the Golden's. Even though we have a special toy for each Golden, they are somewhat like human children. Everyone wants the same toy. They also share tennis balls & bones.

this picture was taken in Abu Dhabi, Famous Etihad tower. I really like the architecture of the building and also POV . As i was travel to Abu Dhabi so thought that it will suite in travel category. UAE is famous for its architecture and worth to see all the beautiful buildings.

There's nothing quite like the combination of kids and summertime!! While photographing this sweet little one, she found a puddle and proceeded to jump across it & around it & and finally & in it. It reminded me of when I was young and couldn't resist a good puddle!

Melbourne Florida Jan 2013 Macaws are pure entertainment.

Beautiful summer evening sky.

This is a night shot of the amusement pier at Ocean City, MD. I tried to capture the energy and excitement of the rides on a summer night.

This ray seems to be trying to "round up" some of the fish. Taken at Kansas City aquarium.

The Light of our lives. She just brings joy to us every day.

The photograph is captured in Ganga Sagar Mela this year, a pilgrimage destination of thousands of devotees in India. The place is located in south of Bengal and after a holy dip in the Ganges, the devotees dry their clothes on the beach against the wild salty winds.

Two burrowing owls keeping watch.

A dragonfly basks under the warm light of the morning sun.

The rising sun gives quiet solace to a beach strolling couple.

The parked school buses were so 'fetching' in their colorful lineup and patterns. Just drew the eye and the memories right into the lens.

I love the muted pink flowers in the background, just gives the cone flowers a nice contrast to them.

Where is Spiderman?

A friend tipped me off to the location of a fox den at the Great Swamp NWR in NJ. The little fox kits are a joy to watch forage and play. Camera: Nikon D300 Exposure: ISO 1000, 1/15, f5.6 Lens: Nikon 80-400 VR @ 400mm Flash: Nikon SB910 + Better Beamer

I have a hummingbird feeder without any place to sit on, outside my balcony. This little one came and was very thirsty so, it would take a few sips and then hover away from the feeder. Then come back in for more food. Allowed me to capture this.

This picture was taken on August 30, 2015, during a field trip of a Photography Club from San German, Puerto Rico.These sunflowers are grown at Finca El Girasol, in Guanica, PR. It marks my first opportunity to take pictures at a sunflower farm, and that bee seemed to gently pose for me.

The Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA) Wild for Wildlife photo contest Grand Prize Winner: Lemurs can't ring in on Jeopardy. Lemurs have an all-or-none handgrip. This maximizes grip strength, which is perfect for arboreal locomotion (although ring-tailed lemurs spend more time on the ground).

The Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA) Wild for Wildlife photo contest first runner up winner: So this is a photo representing our orangutans. We had 'fun staff' photos taken and I snapped this picture of our Primate World keepers imitating each of the orangutans performing a behavior that they do in their natural behavior show! It's been a hit at our zoo!

My beautiful granddaughter took I. 2014,special to me because she is my first granddaughter.She was just visiting for the day.Love it,should be in a commercial se photographs well

This friendly little guy came up to me and showed me how he could hang upside down, and eat a mulberry. The simplest animals can amaze you.

This photo was taken by my late grandfather in October 1988. He had access to the roof and was allowed to get real close to the edge to take this wonder fall like shadow spectacle of the former twin towers in NYC.

This Barn Swallow as enjoying a lovely day at the Oceanside Marine Nature Study Area on Long Island, NY

I would have to say that because of this picture i got interested in photography, to be able to capture all the beauty that's around us. This was taken in Thailand, in the island of Ko Pagnan, while I was on holidays in 2009. This view, this picture, the feelings felt while at it, made my trip worth it. The picture has not been manipulated other than resizing.

I have a plot at a community garden, where these 2 amazing carrots met! It was love at first sight.

Nevada is a beauty and such a sweetheart. This photo reminds me of a character from an old fairytale. With a vintage feel to it.

just like horses,picture taken in Little Catalina ,Nfld April/2013

The weather forecast for the evening (May 26. 2015) in Trondheim, Norway was promising with a lot of dramatic clouds. I was, however, a little bit anxious on location if it was going to start raining. We could see some lightning in the distance. To clear the equipment from the shooting location takes a good 25 minutes and I didn't want anything to get wet. But we were ok. Roger is a natural talent in front of the camera and It is a treat to portrait him.

Bright, beautiful, tasteful, thank you Nature!

I took this picture while visiting a Hindu temple in Pondicherry, India. I had been photographing two cats wrestling in one of the narrow lanes behind the temple when suddenly one of the cats climbed onto the colourful Gopura and sat completely still with its eyes fixed on me. We must have been observing each other for a good ten minutes and I thought I had got some pretty decent shots. The temple cat, probably bored of me by then, turned its back and crouched, as if about to pounce on an invisible prey. I knew something was going to happen, so I got my camera ready and was rewarded with this spectacular leap of faith!

I captured this image with my Nikon D800 and Tamrom 60mm f2 Lens. This flower has such color and detail. It's almost a flower within a flower.

An Indian Rhino couple shares a moment of intimacy at the Lal Suhanra National Park. The two were brought in from Nepal in 1982, though have yet to produce an offspring. The rhinos are usually apart and grazing far away from the viewing area. However, at this particular time, they not only came closer to us, but shared this beautiful moment.

I photographed this picture when I went on a short hike in Georgia forest. The title of the picture came from when I was walking on this narrow path to the lake. The path had leaves all over it and every step felt like I was walking on a soft bed.

Just happened by this motorcycle flat-track race and wasn't sure if I would like it ... four hours later, I wasn't wondering anymore! Fun!!!!

I like this picture that I took when I was in Australia and I love koalas. It's an animal so it goes in the animal/pet theme.

I love San Francisco. So many things to photograph and this gets on top as my favorite. Taken with Kodak SLR/n on a long exposure.

As I was walking to my local library, I saw this man with a very positive facial expression, and I decided to ask him if I could take a portrait of him. I experimented different angles, and the one that I decided was his best angle was in his chest, right under his heart.

Because it's beautiful fall colors taken at the gatineau park were it's a tradition to go every Thanksgiving with the family.

I was photographing wildflowers in my yard when I looked up and saw my cat, Tiger, in the window. I quickly snapped a photo and captured the reflected wildflowers too.

We were taking pictures of the leaves on campus of my high school for my digital photography class. I took this picture of leaves with sunlight coming through.

I had just gotten my camera and was playing around with the settings. His face is just so natural.

I took this picture when I noticed that the leaves were starting to change into vibrant reds and oranges. It was a beautiful day and I was inspired. The different layers of leaves give dimension and depth which I seek when taking photos. This also symbolizes that nature is in depth and complex. It is the greatest of all designs.

Tiger and Sugar relaxing together.

I love the warm sunsets that the Nevada skies provide.

1) this picture is special to me ,cause, shyness of a grown up girl and eyes telling something. 2)I took it in Bangladesh, in my home town-sylhet. dated taken 6/10/2002. 3) cause, different types of Human being as people Living around us.

I took this in my front yard because it was a very nice day and taking photos of nature interests me.

Driving around with friends we got lost and found this beautiful,quiet road.

Grandpa,I do want to go hiking with you but then I will take my hugrabbit with me!

While gardening I noticed a small frog had taken shelter at the top of a small plastic pipe I used to stake a tomato. I quickly grabbed my camera and a close up filter. Wilmington, NC . Nature theme chosen for the outdoor subject matter.

This photo shows what Ohio is like perfectly. It's a gloomy day, cast over a decaying barn. Perfection.

I love taking pictures of legs. Today, the weather made it even prettier to do so as the reflections bounced and all of a sudden feet were pottering about everywhere. I took this picture on a leisurely stroll with a friend through our cold and wet city, London. There is a lovely balance of sharp and blurred lines, and a mix of shapes.
