This picture is a macro view taken through a large glass blown sphere with dozens of air pockets. I would go as far as saying that the angle of the picture created shows us how unique the close up world can be. Photo taken March 2011.

A Canadian goose peers at me on a bright winter day. This picture was taken from my car with a 100-400mm lens, on a sunny but extremely cold day. The river provided a wonderful contrast for the background. I would have missed the opportunity if I alighted from my car before taking the shot.

This picture has the fingers of my sister-in-law. It was taken in Diwali. She and my mum were making Rangoli, which is a tradition of coloring the floor with colored powder.
