France, Through the Centuries

I'll be arriving in France soon, and I can't wait. There is something very comforting about some of these places where time seems to stand still through the ages. Notre Dame on the Seine is one of these places. I take photos every time I go...

The Rainbow After the Storm

All that's missing from this one is a unicorn. This is one reason I am excited about genetic engineering. I think that some odd-ball researcher is going to make a real unicorn one day... and everyone (well, MOST everyone) will love it. Hey future-unicorn-genetic-engineer, please contact me after you successfully bring one of these to term so I can take the first photo. That would be very cool.

The Rest of the India Story

So, I took the photo below from across a slow-moving river. After shooting, I explored a bit more as the sun was setting, then returned to the same spot, rotating the camera about 45 degrees to the right. This is what I saw.

In the distance, you can see how it is a layer of smoke in the air. This is where families come from all over the Agra area to burn the bodies of recently deceased loved ones. They then throw some ashes in the river to begin the cycle again. Indians come from all over the area to visit this river, see the Taj Mahal, and visit other local temples. It's a very peaceful place... I hope this photo helps to describe the general feeling of the place.

Forever Skies

The beautiful and endless skies of Iceland are a constant source of inspiration. Have you ever seen that movie, "What Dreams May Come"? Do you remember how it had these flowing, impressionist scenes? Iceland is kind of like that all the time! I wonder if the people that live there get used to it over time... I can't say for sure. But I was keenly aware of every hue and color in the sky throughout the roadtrip.

If you recall, I also used to double-major in Geophysics, so I am into the geology of all these places. But, I end up getting frustrated when I can't recognize different formations. Like, for example, that wonderful mountain-plateau there on the left... not sure how that was made. It's different than all the other bits of these glacier-carved fjords. Anyway, I'm sure that one of the clever people in this audience can tell me what it is! :)

The Ultimate Carnival

I've been to Disney World many many times, but this is my first time as a grown-up to Disneyland. I always feel strange, by the way, calling myself a grown-up!

Disneyland has two parks on the premises. This one is from California Adventures, the second and newer park. Towards the backside, there is this perfect street, full of carnival-like activities. As most of you know, I'm a big fan of graphic design, so it was great fun to look at the delicious details in all of these signs.
