Flowers on Angel’s Rest trail. A very popular hiking spot in the beautiful Columbia Gorge. It was a damp rainy day in the middle of summer. That’s why you see water droplets on the flower. I liked this flower for the striking colors. Shot with Nikon D80 with Nikon 18-200mm VR lens. No modifications besides cropping.
Dog Mountain trail in the beautiful Columbia Gorge. I like this photo for the contrast the between foreground and the background. Shot with Nikon D80 and 35mm F/2.0D lens.
Portland downtown with Hawthorne Bridge on Willamette river in the foreground. Shot from Marquam Bridge druing Portland Bridge Pedal cycling event in summer 2005. Shot with Nikon Coolpix 4500 point-and-shoot camera.
Isha handed the ‘Harry Potter’ glasses to Shriya and I asked her to make faces and she did! The photo you see here is verbatim as it came out of the camera, no changes necessary. The Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens is a bargain! Shot with Nikon D90 and Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens.
Wall graffiti in Temple Bar are in Dublin, Ireland. This blue and yellow graffiti on a building corner almost looked like it was glowing under the sodium vapor lights. I was able to get a sharp picture at 1/8s shutter speed with the 18-200mm VR lens. It’s very rare to get a sharp picture at such a slow shutter speed. I was just lucky. I have used ‘high key’ filter to enhance the effect of blue paint.
This ram family was resting along the Lake Minnewanka loop road near Two Jack Lake in Banff National Park, Canada. Shot with Nikon D90 with Nikon 18-200mm VR.
This monster truck is sitting on the Columbia Icefields. We took a tour of the icefield while visiting Banff and Jasper National Parks in Canada. Shot with Nikon D90 and Nikon 10-24mm lens. Boosted tonal contrast for extra punch to the image.
Iconic Glacier National Park photo. Very popular tourist spot. Sad part for me was that there was absolutely no snow left on the mountain peaks by this time in Summer. Shot with Nikon D90 with Nikon 10-24mm lens. Brilliance/Warmth filter used to enhance warm colors.
A dead tree in Glacier National Park on the Going-to-the-Sun-Road. This photo has been enhanced with adjustments to color, white balance and ‘low key’ filter. Shot with Nikon D90 with Nikon 18-200mm VR lens. Shot from a moving vehicle in bright day light.
Sunset at the Flathead Lake. We were taking a cruise in the lake while this photo was taken with Nikon D90 and Nikon 18-200mm VR lens. I have used a Brilliance/Warmth filter to enhance the orange glow in the sky and also done some retouching to adjust the color of the sky.
