Serene + Calming Nature: Lafayette Park Collage

I loved how tranquil this park is, the spectacular views it offers of nearby mansions, the Twin Peaks mountains and the breathtaking blue sky. I added light pastel touches of pink and blue to this collage to further magnify the peaceful scene.

Striking Aurora Lights and Dazzling Stars Imagery

I'm always in awe of breathtaking, magnificent landscape scenery. Unfortunately, it's more of an uncommon scenario where you have to be there at the right place at the right time...and most likely, it comes unexpectedly. I decided to create my own version of aurora lights and sparkling stars imagery by altering a simple photo of a mountain completely. I added stars to the background. changed the hues, contrast, and saturation of the orange-green sky, and created slight reflections and gradient to the ocean.

Cloud Gate: "The Bean" Sculpture in Chicago

Was obsessed with all the different Cloud Gate sculpture pictures at Millennium Park on the internet, so had to see it for myself in daylight and during the night hours. It's particularly striking at night with the clear skies, a hint of clouds, and the skyscraper reflections. This is such a versatile sculpture that offers so many different photo opportunities and perspectives.
