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.

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".

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.

The colour RED and heavy ornaments defines a traditional Indian married women, even her feet and toe talks the same story.

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.

a picturesque wintermorning

For the first time in history of the Brevard Zoo located in Melbourne, Florida two giraffes were born in the same month. This 10 day old baby is being tended and loved on one of her first outings joining the herd.

Milky way above waterville NH. I looked at the small resort underneath the milky way and it felt like the galaxy was watching over our little planet. Interesting feeling, thought I ought to share.

I visited the Grand Canyon for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I was there for a sunset storm and again for a lovely sunrise. I must return!

I took the picture on one of my favourite nights with my friends It was a lovely sunset in the background I took it last weekend at the golf course at lamhill glasgow

For every journey you take in life you will be faced with two different wings. The right wing and left wing. In each wing there are unique characteristics that define life. For every love there's anger for every destiny there's fear, for every pride there's humility. But for both wings there's always hope, hope brings joy. This picture set in London shows that life always gives you different chances you just have to set your head up high and look forward. Because at the end of the road you will be rewarded. To rise and fly you must wear both wings.

This photo is one of the paramount in my collection. I took it almost a year ago, when I realized that I have to begin taking photography 'seriously'. It was my first photo session..

Well this photo was an experiment of mine that I shot in sepia a year or two ago.

Monoliths holds a significant event in the history of Meghalaya. The importance and rich historical background of these Monoliths are of great importance to the people in Meghalaya. It is a memorial wherein the past the ashes of the dead people were deposited in the cenotaphs. There is also a legendary story, where it is believed that the monoliths were known as the resting stones for the tribal community after their daily cultivation from their fields. There are a number of ancient monoliths and table stones, which commemorating memorable events. The largest cluster of monoliths is found in Nartiang village, Jaintia Hills. Also another wonderful site was Mawphlang or ‘sacred forest’ where you will able to see Monoliths.

Actually all nature shots are special to me. I love nature! I took this in late November , near a suburb from where I live in Chicago, Il .

its about sharing responsibility of a girl with a unknown person

This was clicked at the famous "Gateway of India" in Mumbai. We went here very early on a rainy morning. The very simple and innocent act of feeding the pigeons got my girls thrilled. This picture captures that joy and innocence - writ large on their faces against the backdrop of a famous monument.

A lone spectator reflects on art displays at the Milwaukee Art Museum.

Let the rain come down and wash away my tears
Let it fill my soul and drown my fears
Let it shatter the walls for a new sun
A new day has come

Since this week can Feline independent cycling. Now she can go cycling together with her older brother.

I shot this picture when I was in a little town in Poland called Zakopane. There are a lot of horses in this village to take rides with tourists. Because of the hard work and cold temperature they create a lot af steam.
