Umbrella Girl
In April 2015 my dream come true and I have been able to visit the country of my dreams, Japan! This photo was taken while wondering the streets of Kyoto, it was raining a lot and all i could see was the sea of colourful umbrellas, until I spotted this girl. There was something about her that made me want to press the shutter. I liked her grace and peacfull look. The moment after I made this photo, I knew that I had captured something special. It has become my faviorite from entire holiday…
Icy Shapes

The Big Wave
This wave is situated right near the CBD of Sydney. Some describe it as the most dangerous wave in Australia, due to it breaking on barnacle covered rocks only a few feet deep and only ten metres from the cliff face. If you fall off you could find yourself in a life and death situation. This photo was taken 300 feet directly above the wave from a helicopter, just as the surfer is pulling under the lip of the barrel.
I always thought hippos were vegetarian!
Lucky timing! The oxpecker was originally sitting on hippo’s head. I could see the hippo was going into a huge yawn (threat display?) and the oxpecker had to vacate it’s perch. When I snapped the pic, the oxpecker appeared on the verge of being inhaled and was perfectly positioned between the massive gaping jaws of the hippo. The oxpecker also appears to be screeching in terror and back-pedaling to avoid being a snack!

The Road
Tree of Life
Incredibly beautiful and extremely remote. Koehn Lake, Mojave Desert, California. Aerial Image.
Tebinquiche
The colorful place ( pink sky ) and the lake of stagnant salt would , by itself , a beautiful picture . However , the junction of the beautiful countryside with some tourists (who were also there to record the color of the day) , meant that I found a very interesting and peculiar enquadramente.
When Conditions Are Right
Giant waves converge and jump together along the napali coast of Kauai. An early season northwest swell and the position of the autumn sun made this shot possible, but what really makes it special to me is the bird flying in the corner of the frame. This little moment of life adds balance to the image and reminds me that the mundane often make the spectacular.
