Dileep, those are some interesting critters. I've been to plenty of beaches and have never seen an array of colour and hidden treasures like that before. Fabulous pics.

Sharod, loved the affect on the photos. Great pics.

Ravi, beautiful bird shots, as usual. The bottom one is my favorite, it looks like an artists rendition.

Dileep, I've been enjoying your beautiful photos and am hoping you me be able to help me with a little advice, since you are in Seattle. We have a 9 hour layover at the Seattle Airport flying home from our Alaskan cruise. I am an avid amateur photographer and would love to spend some time trying to get some shots during our layover. Any advice on how to spend 9 hours and still get back to the airport in time for our continuing long day of flying en route back to Mississippi?

I love dragonflies. Unfortunately the ones we have in Texas aren't particularly attractive - no pretty colors.

I was sitting about 10 feet away. He sat for a LONG time on my hummingbird decoration that sits beside my koi pond/water garden.

Just my Canon SX40HS. It's what I do all my shooting with.

Sharod, fab photos of the dragonfly. Amazing.


Shootr, now I'm hungry for something sweet.
