Today was our first full day in Belize. I noticed this hibiscus outside my hotel room. Photographed on April 8, 2009.

When I noticed this detail on the orchid in our kitchen, I felt that focusing in on it would make for an interesting image. It’s difficult to make novel images of flowers, because they are such popular subjects. Hopefully this one feels at least a little unique. Photographed on February 10, 2009.

Here I’ve tried to capture a sense of the depth created by the foggy forest and falling snow. Photographed on February 10, 2009.

It was snowing when I took the dogs for a walk in the forest the other day. Photographed on February 10, 2009.

I finally jumped on the bandwagon and bought a Canon G10 as my “take everywhere” camera. Here’s one of my first shots with it. Photographed on February 10, 2009.

Here I’ve chosen a large aperture so that I can take advantage of the interesting rainbow highlights created by the out-of-focus droplets. Photographed on February 1, 2009.

Once the sun hits the frost in the morning, it melts into these delicate little droplets. Photographed on February 1, 2009.

Here’s another frost image from the backyard. I included the dead grass in the background to add some more color and enhance the wintery feel. Photographed on February 1, 2009.

We’re still getting frost in the mornings, so yesterday I went and made some macro images in the backyard. Photographed on February 1, 2009.

Here’s one more image from the ice crystals series. Photographed on January 19, 2009.
