PHOTOS

Here is a random sample of my photos. Visit my galleries for many more.


<p>Fields near Obersdorf create an abstract intersecting pattern.</p>
<p>Scenery along a trail toward Crusc and other peaks in the Dolomites.</p>
<p>If I'm not mistaken, this is elephant is fairly old. The sunken temples are one sign it's lived quite a few decades, as is its slightly weathered appearance. (Please let me know if you can tell me more about this one's age and gender!)<br /></p>
<p>A view of the fast-changing rainy season weather, somewhere in the Timorese central highlands.</p>
<p>Children playing along Dili's waterfront after the daily rainstorm.</p>
<p>An old house perches on an even older wall.</p>
<p>A woman and her dog take in the dramatic waters while crossing the Maria Kristina zubia (bridge) in Donostia. The Urumea river flows into the Bay of Biscay just beyond those buildings, and on this winter day winds off the Atlantic were driving waves well upstream. <br /></p>
<p>A couple cut through a glistening Marienplatz, Munich.</p>
