WIPE OUT CAPTURED IN BROKEN WAVE

Wipe Out!  And I caught it.

I never have to journey too far for me to add drama to my adVentures.

IN PERFECT BALANCE - SURFING IN CALIFORNIA

This was the surfer's moment of balance, gliding on the waters.  He was so perfect.  And the water was a perfect mixture of green and blue.

When the surfer finished his ride, he went back for more fun but got caught in a big wave that seemed to smash him and sent him flying into the churning water.

WALL OF ICE - YOSEMITE, CALIFORNIA U.S.A.

YOSEMITE, ICE AND ME!

CHEETAH IN BLACK AND WHITE

ELEPHANT FAMILY IN AFRICA

I love this shot!  The little baby elephant standing so perfectly still... facing me while its mother watches over her baby.  

I've been experimenting with Black and White.  The texture is so great on the front elephant.  I can feel the weight of the ears.  The shadow makes an outline around them.  Like someone took a pencil and traced them.

MONGOLIAN CAMELS CLAIM THE HIGHWAY

You never know what you're going to see when you leave your home and have an adventure...!

These camels decided that they wanted to walk on the local highway rather than the dirt road.  

When I went to take the shot, it was like they were posing for me.  

I get that a lot with animals (the posing for a picture) no matter where I am.  It is almost like we are talking the same language and have an agreement in that moment....
