Very nice, Paul. I really like the last one. The winter pics, honestly, while pretty and all, just depress me.

And no basball season??

Nice shots but the first 2 are coming up way to quick for me.

Ah, to be sitting on that tropical beach with a couple of Margaritas.

Thanks, Paul. Great pics.

Paul, good theme. I too like the last one. Living near the mountains, I'm always awed by the big sky.

I love them all. The fourth is my favorite though. I love the beach...the water. I actually wanted to be a marine biologist at one point in my life.

Fantastic. The first one looks like Narnia.
It really is hard to pick a favorite.

Thanks everyone. Sorry about the snow pics.

The 1st and last shots were both taken from the balcony of my apartment in beautiful Yonkers, NY. Not exactly an exotic location. The 2nd was across the street from where I park my car.

The beach shot was from my honeymoon in Petit St. Vincent, a tiny little island in the Grenadines. One of the most amazing places I have ever visited. Getting there is quite an adventure itself, but worth every minute. First you fly to Barbados, then get on a nine passenger twin engine plane for another flight to Union Island, followed by a boat ride where you finally get to PSV.

First one is my favorite because, yeah, it looks like Narnia. I love winter and feel great with the ice, silence, and cold.

Good choice to use B&W for the winter scenes and color for the spring and summer pics.

Love em.

These shots are a little older so they were all taken with a Nikon D100.
My more recent shots are mostly taken with my new D200.
