Another panoramic view of Colorado


Here is a different panoramic view of Colorado mountains on a Native American reservation. Look at how low the clouds to the right are hanging!

A panoramic view of Colorado mountains


I photographed this image of distant mountains, a forest, and large areas of green land in Colorado. Nice, isn't it?

Stalks reaching the sky


While exploring Texas, I came across a marshy area that was followed on the journey by these stalks reaching high into the sky. I dropped down low to get this picture from a worm's eye view (as opposed to bird's eye view) to capture the stalks towering high above me. It worked! This image was exhibited as a print at an art show. It was my entry photo into the exhibit. I loved the green-yellow stalks against the blue sky.

Wildflowers in New Mexico

Wildflowers on Mountain in Albuquerque
While hiking up a mountain in Albuquerque, NM in the USA, I photographed these yellow wildflowers as the sunlight shone down on the lush green mountains. These wildflowers were exhibited in an art show with a nature theme. The scene was akin to what is seen on the travel channel on television. The entire landscape was amazing to walk in with crisp, clear, cool mountain air. Can't wait to go hiking again with this view! This piece as a print is an excellent conversation starter. People will ask about where it was photographed. This will lead to the topic of travel!

National Harbor at Night in Maryland

National Harbor at Night in Maryland
I photographed this skyline and waterscape at night in Prince George's County, Maryland right by the new bridge crossing over between Maryland and Virginia. I believe the Potomac River runs right up to it. The contrast of the lights and the reflections on the water against the darkest black sky is amazing! Gorgeous, isn't it?

Beach view visible from mountain in Costa Rica

Beach View from Mountain at Ruins in Costa Rica
As I rode horseback up a mountain nearby a beach in Costa Rica, I stopped at some ruins to photograph the distant view. The waves crashing against the shore were visible; as was the city. From there, it didn't look like there was a lot of sand on this beach. But I assure you, there was while I was below the mountain. The lush greenery was right up against the ruins with the columns and arches. The crumbling facade was reminiscent of a time long ago. Yet the structure stood strong against many a storm. The stone of the ruins was surprisingly bleached white; possibly, from the exposure to strong sunlight at elevation above sea level. The trek down is always easier than the trek up. Even my horse felt the difference as he trotted back down carrying his load, me as a passenger, with ease. He was anxious to gallop, but I held him at bay. He seemed to be anxious to leave the ruins and I couldn't help but wonder; what had his wise eyes seen over the years that I hadn't and never would?
