"Concrete jungle where dreams are made of,
There's nothing you can’t do,
Now you're in New York!!!
These streets will make you feel brand new,
the lights will inspire you,
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York"

I will be posting this photo and other there from now on.

I took this photo of the band Maná at their concert on March 16, 2007, at the Patriot Center in Fairfax, Virginia. I used a Canon SD450 Powershot digital elph camera for the photo. Check out the larger size to really appreciate the details of the shot. Even though this was taken from far away I still think it came out pretty well.

An explosion of lines and colors as a fireworks erupts. Taken on the 4th of July in Florida, 2006. The result of the shot ended up better than I expected after a few attempts at trying to capture fireworks being set off that night.
