KODAK MOMENT of the Day

This picture is special to me because this is the last time my best friend and I would be able to enjoy the sunrise while duck hunting. Due to the fact we will be heading to college next winter. So through this picture I tried capturing the true beauty of hunting on the rice fields.

Just a like bit of joy on the beach.

This photo was taken on a wintery January day at the Grounds For Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ. This is one of my favorite places to visit anytime of the year.

Cardinals keep the winter bright with their red color.

Young novices from myanmar on winter morning.

this picture reminds me of great day had in the snow and that winter is finally here. This was taken from a photoshoot i did in at the start of the year along these little country paths by a river.

I like the reflections of my friends in the ornament!

We were spending the evening going to Radio City Music Hall to see The Christmas Spectacular, a tradition in our family. It isn't Christmas until you've seen the Christmas Spectacular and the Tree at Rockefeller Center!

This picture is special as it is my first pinhole photograph and i cant wait to make many more. I made it on Monday 7th Oct and I took it in university in cardiff. There wasnt a theme i just wanted to capture as much as i could as an experiment.

Christmas Market at the museumn Vienna.

The holidays are always brighter through the eyes of a child.

My longest and dearest friend asked me to take pictures of her first born. Baby Hope was born on December the 16th, 2015 at 11:10 in the morning.

I live with several cats who get involved with Christmas decorating...Uno claims the box as hers after I remove the contents. Christmas preparation takes a little longer in my case...but they are family!

At a family meet on a festive evening. At kolkata , India

A lovely private light display on a pier facing the bridge; is makes the season bright especially as one crosses the bridge coming into town.

There is nothing more magical than capturing that MOMENT.. seeing Christmas through the eyes of a child.

My sons first christmas pictures. 2012.

An iridescent Christmas ornament, converted to black and white. We had a box of Christmas ornaments sitting on the kitchen table, and I noticed how the light from the window shone upon the ornaments, so I grabbed my camera and set up an artistic shot of a common holiday symbol.

I was heading home from work, sunset was 30 min away so I decided to stick around. This is January in Calif. Malibu (Happy, free is what I see)

In Feb, 2016 we decided to go snowshoeing after a snowstorm. The snow was soft and deep - perfect for snowshoes. The photo was taken in the National Park in Prince Edward Island, Canada

Colorful display of fireworks at Stanley Quarter Park in New Britain, CT.

After spending 5 days in New Orleans it was time for my husband to take a break and relax.

My niece caught a great selfie with her new cat Lilly. Taken February 2015.

Probing for tiny prey left by receding waves, a small shorebird ceaselessly searches for food along the shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean located in Ormond Beach, Florida.

Wild deer that come to the yard everyday for food and water.

I was at a dance rehearsal with this talented dancer. She is so comitted and such a beautiful dancer. Such a joy to watch her perform and able to take the photo at the right moment with the other dancers behind her.

Water logging is a common issue in mumbai during the monsoon :) Even the huge trucks cant move to a distance, but with a great team work and humanity we can also achieve immortality.

My son Zach and his pony Flash. We got him from an auction and he follows my son around. They are so cute together. You never know that when someone else throws an animal away another person finds a best friend.

I was just enjoying a beautiful sunset on the third of december with low temperatures, mist and lovely clouds

Lovely view from the John Hancock building!

As evening approached, a troop of monkeys led by its leader jumped across these vast spaces between tall steep boulders at a temple near Hampi. I froze this moment in a picture when one monkey was still in air. What gave it the courage to take such a leap of faith? Was it confidence in himself or blind faith in his leader?
 

The church steeple's lights vs. the beautiful light of the full moon make for a lovely 'competition' of forms and light.

Lake Gosau, Austria

It was taken in Srinagar

I took this picture on the 31 may 2014, my Grandson was amazed with the icebergs, as he said, "this is the best day of my life".

Taken in the Sahara Dessert in Morocco.

People gathering to watch the sunset behind me as i was setting up to shoot the sunset ( as they say always look behind u )

This picture was taken on the 4th March on Voluteer Beach in the Falkland Islands, where nature is still in charge. The king penguins were on our nice white sand beach, (yes it is sand and not snow). The moonlight was great and apart from me and my grand daughter there were no one else around except penguins.

After seeing the results of this magnificent sunrise I photographed, the first thought that came to me was; hour glass!!

This photo is so special because it is Lenard Knight's lifes work. It is a beautiful and inspiring place. He build this mountain in the middle of the desert for 30 years to tell his message that God is Love! The photo is of my granddaughter and her friend.

When your team wins their first county title and it's your birthday...

On a winterday in Januari 2017 I came across this man who was walking around with his horse.

Gibraltar, Interaction between people and animals.    It seems as if the monkey demands a payment for passage.  

Sunrise from the surf at Manly Beach, Australia.

I took this picture at Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe Resort located 20 minutes from Reno, Nevada.

This was taken in January 2016 on the island of Bonaire.  Now that the snow and sub-zero temperatures have arrived, this photo brings back fond memories of warmer weather.
