I like the American look... :-) Photo taken by Evy Johansen (Denmark) - Humor

I took this over Memorial Day Weekend '04. What a humbling sight of our founding fathers. Their determination and vison for America is what has kept America the longest running democracy in the world. One of the great historical places to visit in all of America.

This picture was taken during the July 4th fesitivities in 2003, and I think it encompasses the tradition that is July 4th. It is still a timeless event for the entire family that every generation shares and enjoys. Photo taken by Nicole de Brabant (United States) - Holidays/Events

I saw this technique done in a photo club by a very special artist. This is one of my attempts, and I was happy with the way it turned out! Photo taken by Diana Clark (United States) - Artistic/Creative

This is a picture of my beautiful two and a half year old daughter. She actually stood still and posed for me -- which in itself -- is a miracle :-) Photo taken by Victoria Fadden (United States) - People/Family/Friends

It is amazing to me to see the details in the grasshopper's eyes. The camera lens can capture details that your eyes miss. Photo taken by Mary Ann Melton (United States) - Animals/Pets

Walking the beach on Cape Cod, I ran across two young boys playing in the surf and thought the effect of them in silhouette would make a nice photo. Taken with Kodak LS443. Photo taken by James P. Malone, Sr. (United States) - Travel/Vacation

I took this picture on a trip to Arches National Park in Moab, Utah. I am from the east coast and I had never seen anything quite like the rock formations and mountains out west. This picture is of a rock formation named Park Avenue. Photo taken by Erik Unger (United States) - Travel/Vacation

The two faces of these binoculars are at a point overlooking Lake George. They remind me of pokerfaces of two diplomats getting together for "The Summit." Photo taken by Helmut J. Albrecht (United States) - Artistic/Creative

I took this picture while some friends and I were shopping in the Hamptons, Long Island this last summer. Although the shop had some great things, I found this guy named Kiwi to be much more interesing and extremely photogenic. This is one of the shop owners beloved pets and he obviously loves the customers just as much. Even the ones that stick cameras in his face. He posed for so many and it was hard to pick just one to send. I like this shot because it makes me smile and I hope it does the same for you. Photo taken by R.L. Ferraioli (United States) - Animals/Pets

Old sports equipment was the inspiration for this photo. Photo taken by Thomas S. Pipia (United States) - Artistic/Creative

I shot this picture near the beach of Herzelia City. The girls standing position looks like a part of the statue and composition is beutiful. You don`t see a pose like this everyday. Photo taken by Nir Friedman (Israel) - Artistic/Creative

None of my relatives wanted to come with me to watch that I would not be stepped on while I am flat on the ground taking the picture (They were too shy). Insulted to the dept of my bones I had no other choice but to go there all alone at night. The tower is one of the two "Izraeli" Towers located in Tel Aviv. A real work of art that honors the city of Tel Aviv and "put it on the map". Photo taken by Amiram N. Plesser (Israel) - Artistic/Creative

The most important thing in my life is my three-year old baby boy. One afternoon, I went to the beach with him. This "shooting" took place in Luquillo, Puerto Rico. I began to take pictures of him. And suddenly I was amazed because I captured through the camera lens ... the great interaction between the island's beautiful nature and my baby. This is my favorite picture because when people see it ...they can understand why my baby is the sunflower of my life. Enjoy! Photo taken by Crystal Tello (Puerto Rico) - Artistic/Creative

Taken Jan 2004 in Omaha Texas, this is the Union Pacific Challenger on it's journey to the Super Bowl. Impression emerging from a fog. I wasn't pleased with the weather (ipooring rain, fog, etc.) however the resulting photo was incredible. An example of why you should snap away as you never know what you might get. It represents the art of American manufacturing, percerverance, and the their repective power. More important what does it mean to you? Photo taken by Kyle Farris (United States) - Artistic/Creative

This picture was taken on a beautiful evening and the weather was excellent. I think the long wait to capture the Golden Gate at dusk paid off. Photo taken by Radha Krishnan (United States) - Travel/Vacation

I took this picture at the 02' Tour De France at Les Deux Alpe while we were on vacation. This picture is special to me because you can see how exhausted the rider is and how focused the rider is on getting the drink. The rider is on the last climb of the day after being in the saddle for six hours Photo taken by Scott Steward (United States) - Travel/Vacation

The end of the day is a peaceful time, particularly on the weekend at the beach. This boy is in between colorful beach umbrellas -- enjoying the last hour of the day! Photo taken by Peter Anderson (United States) - People/Family/Friends
