- This is the best shot of about 1000 photos I took over four week period of a mother hummingbird and her two baby chicks. The day after I shot this photo, the baby birds left the nest and the chapter was closed forever. In this picture, the mother Anna's hummingbird was just arriving at the nest. Hearing their mom, the babies opened their beaks in anticipation of a meal.

- This photo of the sunray shining through the trees was taken at the West Thumb Geyser Basin in Yellowstone National Park. The mixture of steam and mist was lifting and swirling around the trees in the late afternoon. You can see two of the old snow bombardiers in the shade of the pine trees.

- Lunch Time For Baby Black-tip Reef Sharks

- I shot this photograph at the island of Mirihi in the Maldives. Baby black-tip reef sharks come into this lagoon searching for their favorite meal: silver sprats. Watching the sharks learn to hunt and the tactics tiny silver sprats use to evade the sharks is an extra ordinary scene.

- As I was taking a picture of the sunset while visiting a friends farm in Bulgaria, I got the idea of shooting it through one of the many dozens of dandelions that were growing in abundance all around his backyard. You might say I got lucky with my decision of flower choice. I seemed to have captured a momentary struggle for survival in the micro-world. For the record, the Mantis won the encounter...
