Dancing Dolphins, Shining Moon, and Sparkling Stars


Inspired by the beautiful colors of the Little Twin Stars' imagery and designs, I decided to use a similar background color--a mix of pink, purple and blue gradient--mixed in with moon and star elements. I added in some dolphins to this, along with water, houses, and flowers as a backdrop to create a fantasy-like reality of a city.

Lost In Paradise: Colorful Sunsets and Palm Trees Bliss


La Jolla Cove Part III: A nice, peaceful, end-of-day stroll heading down San Diego watching the sun slowly set into the ocean. The surrounding rows of palm trees, buildings, and bright colors from the sunset made it the most epic scene ever.

The New York Icon: Flatiron Building's Remarkable Design


The stunning, spectacular Flatiron building in New York City. We loved seeing it from all angles and from top to bottom. With the mid-afternoon sun and humid heat, the partly cloudy blue skies made for an amazing backdrop for this photo.

Suite Dreams: Blue-Green Lights & New York Skyscrapers


It's always so much fun altering a series of images, tweaking the colors, saturation, hue, and everything in between. For this stunning image of the lower Manhattan skyline, I wanted to give it a dramatic look and feel, with a slight twilight vibe but filtered with more hints of blue-green and yellow colors. Something that is dream-like, yet still strongly saturated. Something that has an eccentric personality and reflects the true spirit and energy of New York.

Rainbow Vision: Soft Waves and Clouds in Lake Waters


After a rainy turned sunny day, I took a walk around the lake and captured this nice shot of the water. It was a normal peaceful image and I decided to enhance it a bit with extra saturation, a change in hue, contrast, and an extra rainbow edge in the waves. I also added in some painterly effects to give it a nice, smooth picturesque vibe, resembling a painting.
