I believe this picture shows the beauty of a Norwegian winter. The picture is shot outside the city Bodø, in the northern part of Norway during the last sunrays of the season. After this, we don't see the sun for months. This picture relate to the theme "nature" because it shows how beautiful nature can be, even with human interference.

The picture was taken using my Kodak LS443 in Jan 2004, during the Chinese New Year at the Tien Hou Temple in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I like the colour of this photo. Photo taken by Engchoon Lee (Malaysia) - Travel/Vacation

I really like this image because it's a drama about a small tree. What usually lives on a mountain, lives here between two buildings. Only the painted wall gives the tree its everyday needs. Yellow is the light, blue is the water, and the grey of the sidewalk is the soil. Cruel isn't it? Photo taken by Dan Samoila (Romania) - Artistic/Creative

I caught this picture while my kids were feeding the swans at Round Pond, August 2004. The pond is in front of Kensington Palace in London. Their necks formed a perfect heart for Valentine's day. I couldn't believe I caught them at just the perfect moment. Photo taken by Cindy Laughrea (United States) - Animals/Pets

This is the south branch of the Moose River, in NY's Adirondack Park near Old Forge, New York. The photo was taken in August 2004, but because it was shot in infrared, the leaves appear white like snow. Photo taken by Andy Williams (United States) - Travel/Vacation

I liked the strong colors of these Fire Station doors in red. Taken in Yonkers, New York, January 2005 -- my first photo taken in the New Year. Photo taken by Jeff Sanders (United States) - Artistic/Creative

I took this picture in the summer of 2002 while snorkling in Cancun, Mexico. The turtle got so close and stayed around me for a long time -- at one point I thought he was going to swim into me. I love the way the fish are catching a ride, and in return are cleaning the algae off the turtles shell. Photo taken by Glenn Marks (United Kingdom) - Animals/Pets

This picture is special to me because it reminds me of the trip my wife and I took to NYC for Christmas 2002. It also reminds me of the freedoms I am granted and the rights I have as a citizen of the United States of America. Photo taken by Matthew Upton (United States) - Travel/Vacation

I took this picture on a construction site near where I am living in China. I walk past this person everyday, and since I'm a foreigner they all stare at me. One day I took my camera and they were really amused. I like taking photos of the people on the streets -- and think I captured a good expression on this photo. Photo taken by Saad Akhtar (China) - People/Family/Friends

Big horn rams on a mountain near Empire, Colorado posed for a portrait. I had to scramble up a mountainside to get close enough. They were calm and curious as long as I stayed below their position. This image was captured in May 2004. These animals love the mountain slopes of Colorado. Photo taken by Richard H. Hahn (United States) - Animals/Pets

This was a picture I took for a photography course at Bowling Green State University in Ohio -- it was a reflection assignment. To create the reflection, I held a Hollywood poster below her face to get the reflection in the glasses. Then I did a few touch ups with Photoshop and some cropping. I won an award for my class with this picture. Hope you enjoy! Photo taken by Melina Papantoniou (United States) - Travel/Vacation

A closeup of the burners in my furnace. I thought they looked like a jet fighter or some kind of sci-fi hardware with the blue flames shooting out of the ends. I used my digital camera to capture the picture, and used NeatImage and lots of spot editting to clean up hot pixels and the noisy areas. Curve and Level adjustments brought additional details out of the shadows. Photo taken by David S. April (United States) - Artistic/Creative
