This feather was next to a wondow in my mothers house. It was lit by early morning sun making it glow this wonderful green and blue. I wanted to take something with me when I left that reminded me of my mom. This is what I took.

'De 9 straatjes' is an area in Amsterdam with lots of unique shops. Worth a visit on your next stay in the Dutch capital. I took this picture mid December on a rainy day. I like it, hope you do as well ;)

I took this shot during a balloon ride that my wife and I took during our anniversary. The morning sun was at our back as the pilot descended to skim over a cornfield. I thought that the shadow of our balloon was a nice contrast against the green of the cornfield. The natural color of the corn stalks was a little dull and so I adjusted the color and shadow levels with Picasa.

Taken at Aci Trezza, a town in Sicily, southern Italy. Located on the coast of the Ionian Sea, this village has a long history of maritime activity. Aci Trezza is a popular spot for Italian vacationers during the Summer.

Off the coast of Aci Trezza are three tall, column-shaped islands. According to local legend, these great stones are the ones thrown at Odysseus in The Odyssey. Not far from the coast (about 400m) is the "Island Lachea", identified as the Homeric "island of goats". Today it houses the University of Catania's biology station.
