- One of my favorites. This is my family from Easter 2014 taken in Deville, Louisiana (yes, the town was named after us in the late 1700s). I set everyone up around my father’s old tractor in front of the feeding shed built by my great grandfather. My Canon was on a tripod and I was able to capture this using the remote trigger from my 600 EX-RT.
- Dallas Aurora art exhibit, 2013. I was lying on the ground to capture the feel of this diminutive display. I thought the artist was able to create a simple but unique “playing catch-up” effect.
- A typical scene from the streets of Mumbai, India, a city with a population of about 25 million. A ‘goods’ carrier, a bull in the midst of traffic, and rickshaws. Of course, there are no other major metropolitan areas where one would see this.
- Another typical Mumbai street scene – a woman with a small child begging for Rupees. The beggars were often on crutches, wrapped in bandages or carrying their children.
- An Indian woman with her child just down the street from my flat in Mumbai. This is a favorite type of photography for me – capturing the moment without the subject looking right into the lens.
- The demeanor of most of the Indians changed when I had my camera – most were happy to be in front of the camera. This lady was very pleasant, and I was able to speak with her for a bit after a couple of shots.
- This was taken at a fort located west of Agra, India. This man was not very friendly and seemed to have had a harsh life. I wondered about his experiences and the things he’s seen…
- Indian school girls about to go to class in Agra, India. This school was built in the early 1900s and I was curious about what had changed or improved in their school system.
- Local Indians spending time on the edge of the Arabian Sea in Mumbai at the end of the day. The warm/hot dry weather is the same for 7-8 months out of the year. I wondered where the locals go to relax during monsoon season.
- Night view of downtown Dallas from the top of the Stoneleigh Residences. I was trying to capture the effect of the moon.
- Night view of the U.S. Consulate in Mumbai, India from the top of the Trident Hotel. This was a happy moment for me since we had just completed the construction of this long overdue project. The U.S. government used this photo in their publications about the Consulate.
- An unretouched photo of a Texas sunset in August. I was traveling from Louisiana and suddenly pulled off the road to get this image. I have traveled regularly at the same time of the day from Louisiana to Dallas but have never seen this type of sunset.
