Love my new 5D MkIII.  Got this shot within about 30 minutes of turning it on.  My 13 year old daughter is #9.

Sometimes we all feel a little de-saturated . Smith Madrone Winery, check out the size of the Olive trees on the left. They were left un-pruned for many years before the present winery was established. It is located at the top of Spring Mountain and we had tail gate picnic after our tasting

Truchard Vineyard - awesome setting to have a picnic - guess we should have brought our sandwiches there

I love panoramas and the iPhone is pretty good at it. The best camera is always the one you have with you and when cross country skiing it makes sense it is an iPhone

Couldn't believe there was a rainbow around BigBen - almost as good as "look it's a double rainbow"

Literally was driving from our factory to the airport in the middle of nowhere Upstate New York and this scene was so bright and vibrant it caused me to pull over and take a picture - a lady then stopped her car and said "yeh I saw that as well amazing"

Interesting experiment - upgraded my iPhone 4S to IOS6.0, used panorama mode and processed with Camera+ and Aperture's NR - I was pleasantly surprised at the result.

As many people know the Florida Keys has some of the world's most amazing sunsets and they even make the bridges on Highway 1 look good.  This shot was taken from the patio at the Sunset Grill in Marathon.

Flaggers Folly - One of he original railway bridges into the lower Florida Keys.  This was built in the early 1900s and then a road deck added on the top in the 1930s.  It wasn't replaced until 1972.

High Falls in Rochester.  The source of the horsepower for the mills of the 1800s fed by Brown's Race and an area of incredible wealth of technology and industrial history

More of the 4th.  Gotta love bridges with fireworks - downtown Rochester

The Erie Canal is a very interesting engineering and historical accomplishment.  Part of the canal actually crossed the Genesee River on an Aquaduct which was then converted into a rail bridge for a subway.  It is now a street artists entertainment

The Red Fort in Delhi is amazing but it can be super crowded with tourists of all walks.  Some areas due to vandalism are out of bounds and "behind to ropes"

The Moghul King was imprisoned by his son in Agra Fort.  He spent his days looking across to his wife's memorial - the Taj Mahal

The nooks and crannies in India are amazing.  This brass door at the Red Fort in Delhi was a point of endles curiosity for tourists as it led to a private mosque of one of the Moghul rulers in India.  It took me two or three trips back to the door to shoot it without ten people trying to peer through the crack past the lock.

Another of my visit to the Taj Mahal in Agra India.  This one does show how huge it site feels when you are on the ground looking at this grand monument.  Spectacular site.

A view of the Taj Mahal from the unfinished foundation of the Black Taj Mahal.  I actually had no idea how big the complex was until I was there and it was Trey Ratcliff's web site front page that made me think to go to the other side of the river.

I have become fascinated at what you see in airports and it is often camera (at least iPhone) worthy. This is hanging around at Rochester Intl NY

Downtown Dallas lighting. Apparently at one time the hotel said "Mizuno" in lights. I shot this in a super hurry out of my car window

We went for Sunday breakfast at a McKinney classic - Bill Smith's cafe, and this bike was parked out front with no cars going by and the moody clouds it looked like an iPhone moment
