Here is a photo of an old run down train station not to far from me. I must of driven by this station a million times always wanting to stop to take a photo. Finally, I did. I think it makes a neat photo. Even though the train still uses these tracks, the train station [...]
You can find this great restaurant in Jamaica at the Sandals Whitehouse Resort. This photo was taken with my Nikon D70 with an f/6.3 at 25mm focal length on a bright sunny Jamaican day! What captured my attention was the bright colors in this building especially the orange!
A bridge in Oak Creek Canyon (Arizona) highlights the size of the rock formations in that part of the west. The various layers in the rock represent different geological periods, and help add visual appeal to the photo.

This is another photo taken while in San Antonio. I used the trees as a frame for the unique building in the background. Once up close, I was able to see more of the buildings detail. I never realized how interesting taking photos of architecture was until I took a photography class to [...]
This photo was taken in San Antonio, Texas at the Alamo. I used Photoshop to crop the sides of this photo and turned it to black and white to give it a more dramatic look. The Alamo (San Antonio de Valero Mission) is a former mission and fortress compound, now a museum, in [...]
