The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust is located in Nairobi, Kenya. This place is currently the home of Soilo, a female rhino that was orphaned due to poaching. This amazing creature shows how much she likes visitors by leaning against the wooden poles of her cage to let kids pat her on the sides. She is only locked for one hour a day for tourist visits.

Half Moon Bay is located in Turks and Caicos, not far from the most famous island of Providenciales. The beach was created by Hurricane Donna in 1960, and is located next to Little Water Cay - also known as Iguana Island. If you are lucky enough when you visit, you might spot one of the endangered native rock iguanas just off the beach.

Just testing the distagon on this kind of photo. The weather these last days has been terrible, very cloud. I hope to do better in the next days.

My first actual try at making a "submission worthy" wallpaper. I used Photoshop CS3 to make it....and of course, on a Mac.

Black backdrop and slave flash to bring out light in the smoke.

I wish we could see the Milky Way that way with our bare eyes, every night!
