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.

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.

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?

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.

This surreal frame was taken at the edge of a mountain top a little before sunset at Avalabetta, a little known hilltop near Bangalore. The rolling hillocks and the large strips of greenery in the distance formed the hazy outline of a distant backdrop against a spectacular ledge. The golden sunrays added to the drama giving the ledge and this image a silver lining.

This is taken in the Pushkar fair ground in Rajasthan, India. Pushkar is famous for its rich cultural heritage and an excellent opportunity for photograhy. If you came to visit India you must come to Rajasthan. It is a grand place to capture the people of various strata of life. It was my first ever visit to Pushkar. Pushkar fair is the largest camel fair in the world. I love here the selling of animals and this man is standing all the night to guard the herd of camels in the vast fair ground.
