You have to be at the right place at the right time. That’s the mantra of a photographer. This photograph proves it. Taken in Monument Valley, Arizona in May, 1999 (yes, it was taken with film). I’ve taken a lot of photographs that I really love, but this one is my favorite of all. Driving through Monument Valley was spectacular and we happened to stop at this location. I think there was a sign that said we weren’t supposed to be there, but it was worth the stop. 502 views as of December 31, 2009 / 50 favorites as of January 28, 2010 / Featured in: / ! #1 ARTISTS OF REDBUBBLE !/June, 2009 / STYLE!

Assorted bunnies, turkeys, and deer visit our yard (Rockland County, New York) regularly. This little bunny noticed me and stood extremely still, didn’t move a whisker. I happily captured the moment before he dashed into the bushes. Nikon D60 / Nikkor lens 70-300mm / 300mm focal length / 1/500 / f.5.6 Featured in Top Shelf Wildlife and Nature Art – Nov 18, 2009 / Featured in Rising Stars – Dec 8, 2009
Antelope Canyon in Northern Arizona is a product of wind, sand, water, debris, and lots of time. Wind blows sand into the canyon from above where it filters down from layer to layer, ripple to ripple like the grains in an hour glass. The colors are primarily a firey orange and a moody purple. This shot is natural light, nature scene setting in the camera, and only minimal clairity and recovery done in Elements. The etherial quality of the light makes you forget there are another 90 or so people wandering through the canyon with you. Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18 Featured in Rising Stars 11/15/09
The great abandoned observatory on Kaylan Dire as stood empty since well before the Great Expansion. / It was built to observe the movement of ships beyond the Rim. / At the time humanity was just starting to explore the galaxy after the war with the Plutonians. They knew there were races beyond the Rim, they had on but were not really sure of their intentions. / They had been visited by no less than six different species of beings, but the war really left them very wary. I included this image because my great, great, grandsire was stationed here for 234 years, I have always being intrigued by the vids and pics of the planet he left at home. / Now I’m able to see for myself the beauty he captured firsthand. There was an old movie of the same name, I must have seen it 300 times.
Thought this scene was very tranquil whilst walking through the churchyard of Walberton village. Then I added the post production which made it quite eerie looking with a misty look to it Canon EOS450D; ISO100; 55mm; f/5.6; 1/160sec

Dragos Prime is about the only planet in the Andromeda Galaxy where one can find real leviathan’s, as a sentient race. / We know of the great leviathans of the deep found in the oceans of old Earth, at least we know the great whales of that world were called that by some. / But on Dragos they were found to grow to immense proportions, and over the centuries became learned to live with other races. / The Ru have used them for thousands of years, both in the oceans as vessels and as living ships traveling between star systems. / The one we see here is an old one that as melded with a seamount, here she will spend her last few centuries helping to warn others of her race of the seamounts danger.
