A catch-all gallery of photos I like but don’t know where else to put. My ever-growing collection includes still life, experimental, candids, landscapes, and just having fun with a camera.
Authors Note: I’ve shot these “Pandora’s Box” images using a variety of 35mm film and digital cameras. In some cases, the camera equipment and technical details of the shot are described.

A Plate of Incan Corn
Showing off a plate of roasted, multi-colored Incan corn kernels. This is a typical snack food in the Andes Mountains of Peru. These corn kernels are about fingertip size, about three times the size of typical kernels of American corn.
Tree Fungus
An interesting image of tree fungus on an old log. Withers Grove park, Steele Creek North Carolina.
Ancient Chimney
Ancient chimney surrounded by brush and tree. Withers Grove park, Steele Creek North Carolina. I really liked the texture of the brick with light dappling across it.

Bird of Paradise Flower
A Bird of Paradise flower. Waimea Valley Cultural Center, Oahu, Hawaii. Nikon D7100, Tamron 28-135mm lens set at aperture priory F2.8 for shallow focus depth.
I’ve developed a fascination for the small things in nature; the textures of naturally occurring objects. This gallery is all about closeups and wide angles in nature.
Bridges to Everywhere
One photo topic I enjoy is images of bridges. I’ve collected so many I pulled bridge images out from the main collection and set up a dedicated gallery.
In August 2017 Winnie and I took our fourth trip to China, and among other locations hiked around West Lake in the city of Hangzhou. The shallow parts of the lake are thick with Lotus plants, and many were in blossom at the time of our visit. Just one or two photos would not do justice to these beautiful plants, so I’ve added a subsection to this Gallery dedicated to the lovely Lotus blossom.
