Local at the Maya ruins of Tulum

This is the actual Maya Ruins at Tulum. The picture is taken just before this one, and is a local guide observing the last tourists leaving the area just before it gets dark an hour or so later. I actually stole this motive from my girlfriend who was taking a picture of the same with [...]

Sunset in Tulum Mexico

Sunset of the Maya ruins at Tulum, Mexico, facing the land side. I took this during my recent trip to Mexico in early January. Picture was shot using a polarizer filter and all manual settings. Post processing was used to lighten up the ruins a bit and increase contrast. [mappress]

This is actually the first picture I took in 2010, not counting the drunken photos just past midnight. It’s yet another HDR picture, this time in proper [...]

This picture is of a very dear friend of mine in the London tube; her Oyster card was acting up so she had to go get assistance. This is her having to lean ind over and recharge her card. She did it so very elegantly I had to snap a photo of it. This photo [...]

Like this picture a thing I like about London is that it’s vibrant and colour full. Almost like a Cirkus, hence the choice of motive, but unlike a Cirkus I rarely tire of London. My purpose of this quick dash to Regent Street was the Apple Store for some new covers for my iPhone. Got [...]

Main building of Kent & Sussex Hospital in Tunbridge WellsMain building of Kent & Sussex Hospital in Tunbridge Wells

I had the dubious pleasure of being at a British Hospital for the third time in 6 days, nothing to worry about every one involved is fine, minor complications to a minor surgery. But I was shocked, a little bit scared and intrigued by the British hospital system, at least in Kent/West Sussex. Having to [...]

Time Square NY taken from another angle, light post processing.

DC Metro really looks like something space age built in the ’70. It has that nice not to crowed feel that you rarely find in capital metro, like it wasn’t just designed for business, unlike the London Underground, which is all business. Only some of the new stations like the Westminster tube station gives me [...]

A fantastic view of the Mall and city taken at night from the outer reaches of the Mall.
