Red Leaves
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.
Flower, Hoyt Arboretum
A flower. Family hiking in Spring 2010 in Hoyt Arboretum, Portland, OR. Shot with Nikon D90 and Nikon 10-24mm lens without tripod.
Chicago downtown
A view of a slice of Chicago downtown as seen from the Sears Tower Sky Deck. You can see the Lake Michigan in the background. The apparent curvature on the horizon is not because of the curvature of the earth but the distortion created by the camera lens at a very wide angle. Spring 2004. Chicago, Illinois.
Tulips
Tulips always fascinate me. For the range of colors and beauty. Their short life span makes them even more precious. I like this photo especially for the saturated colors and depth of field. The quality of this photo is not as good because I had scanned the negative with a consumer grade scanner and later lost the negative, so this is only copy I’ve left besides the prints. Shot with Canon EOS Elan IIE and Sigma 28-80mm lens. Spring 1999. Woodburn, Oregon, USA.
