This photo is special to me because it was the first time I met Ana Rodriguez, former Miss Texas 2011. She is a wonderful soul. We took this photo in a field in Augusta, Georgia, last November. We wanted to portray a woman who was in an emotional disarray yet maintained elegance.

This is Chris, the butterfly expert at the Franklin Park Conservatory in Columbus OH. It was opening day of the butterfly house, and he was releasing newly hatched butterflies into the tropical house, while giving a history and answering questions. It was really fun to see them flying all over!

Simple one point perspective. Yesterday afternoon I was exploring NYC. I saw the woman sitting on the stairs enjoying the sunset, then the kid moved in to take a photo and I thought "that might make a good shot" and so I took it. Taken in NYC looking across the water towards NJ, after a dreary and rainy day.

This photo represents the desire for knowledge, the desire to light. With this image i want to show internal structure of the human. This photo was taken in the first Canadian underground tunnel for trains in Brockville in last june. I could not choose different theme, just artistic/creative. Because this is about hidden game, this picture does not shows anything concrete, this picture allows you to come up with what you want to see

It's an almost bizzare landscape on ground level. But viewed from above it looks like something out of the movie 'Avatar'. Singapore's Gardens By The Bay is one of my favourite places - a sprawling lush garden with two gigantic glasshouses in the very heart of the city. Every city should have one.

I took this picture in Nuuanu valley during a photoshoot for my photography class. This picture is special to me because it captures the nature and beauty around my school. The reason why I choose to attend this school is because of it's beautiful and peaceful landscapes that often help me relax and pause to enjoy life even during my most stressful moments of school. This relates to the theme of Nature because it highlights nature's natural beauty by highlighting the tree's texture and colors.

I went for a trip and on the way through the nature I met a wooden view-tower. My best animal friend was following me all the way but when I started to climb the stairs she stopped and sat down realising that it is too steep and high for her to go up. As if she was saying, I can't go further but I will wait for you. Or maybe she was happy she can rest for a while:) I made this picture to remember the precious little moment. And the day I'm submitting this photo is special, it is her 10th birthday:) Strá~ný vrch u Merboltic, Czech Republic Shot on film Kodak Portra 160

The General - he's become quite popular on my photo assignments. Actually, he's become more popular than my other photos without him! I always get asked.... "Great landscape! But where's The General!" I love this shot because it really displays how regal he is - his personality. High up, looking out as if he has accomplished something mighty. This was taken at Convict Lake, not far from Mammoth area in CA.

Because it stopped me first thing in the morning and made me take a breath I may not have taken on my own. I happened to just glance over on a bridge I travel on my way to work over the Savannah River and pulled over. It has nature written all over it. Morning sun, morning mist...

This picture was taken with an photo journalistic approach. The moment could not have been taken at a more perfect time. The sun was just about to set, creating a lens flare that adds ideal geometry. I took this when I went on a trip to Poland to visit my family. This exact location was in the Krakow Main Square. It relates to the theme because a small girl is feeding pigeons while four boys watch.
