I was attracted by the beauty of the thin ice with a maple leaf just dropped on top of the surface. In contrast with the leaves that trapped underneath the ice formed an unusual pattern and colour. This happened during my first visit to the Central Park, New York, USA in January 2016. I think to come across and capture such an ordinary subject is the prerequisite of skills in photography.
My visit to Grand Teton National Park, USA, last October encountered an overcast groomy weather. But the weather condition gave me an opportunity of capturing this lovely reflection of the Jackson Lake. The difference in colour of the image created a good visual impact. I am off to USA again. This present trip is heading East to the New York region. Besides my presentations and judging session, hopefully I will return with more images to share with you later.
A stunning view of Payette Lake, McCall, Idaho at dawn is not to be missed if you are a serious landscape photographer. We spent a night at the Shore Lodge in front of the Payette Lake. We were greeted by this awesome landscape first thing in the morning. The stream rising from the lake at sun rise is really an exciting image to be captured.
