  • Visiting Canyon de Chelly National Monument in Arizona’s distant north east is a very spiritual experience. The vastness  and beauty of this landscape truly boggles the mind. No wonder, the Navajo people have lived and managed the natural resources in these canyons for more than 5000 years. Shaking Rock will forever be tied to our memories of the Gregory Peck classic "Mackenna's Gold". It is the long shadow of this rock that leads the crew to the canyon of gold. I was so glad to have translated that memory into an image.

  • New Zealand’s national parks are an absolute delight for a photographer - the air is clean, the landscapes are varied, and the light is incredibly conducive for photography. Luckily for me, the weather gods were cooperative too!<br />

I would have settled for just a glimpse of Aoraki/Mount Cook, the highest mountain in New Zealand. Having an opportunity to make photographs there is what dreams are made of !! The hardest part of making this image was not the hike in the dark or in the cold - it was in crossing bridges that were swinging quite wildly in the wind! After crossing the second such bridge, I was able to finally get a glimpse of Aoraki/Mount Cook. I perched myself on a rock to soak in this majestic sight and said a silent prayer in gratitude before making this photograph.

  • Late afternoon light bouncing off the surrounding volcanic rocks created wonderful abstract patterns on the run-off from Burney Falls making it glisten like gold foil. The foreground rocks provided an anchor to the photograph.

  • The Pacific Coast near Santa Cruz with its dramatic bluffs, rugged rocks, and sea stacks provide fascinating subjects for photography. I made this image at dusk as the last light in the sky reflected over the rugged rocks and the wave swept shoreline.<br />
Pacific Dusk was made near Santa Cruz in California.

  • Yosemite National Park is an incredible classroom to learn photography. For a keen student, there is a never ending array of opportunities to hone your technical, artistic and compositional skills. Further, it is an “all-season” photo location. While making this image, I was drawn to the raw power of the waterfalls. In spring, they seemed to tower over even the hard granite rocks !

  • Australia is a distant and fascinating place for photography as the landscapes are quite unlike any place else. In Tasmania’s remote eastern coastline, lichen paints the granite rocks with orange hues. However, once I got to the location, the entire area was covered in grey and gloomy clouds threatening to ruin the photographic opportunity. So when a gracious host offered me an evening cup of tea by his coastal home, I decided to take him up on his offer. However, much to my luck, the clouds started to part at precisely the same time as I started to sip my tea. Frantically, I had to excuse myself from my host and rush over to the beach to make this image. The dramatic light lasted just long enough to make this composition. Here, the pink hues of the sky seemed similar hues on the foreground.

  • I can endlessly watch waves lapping up against the shore. There is something therapeutic about the rhythmic sound they make that it seems to wash away all of one’s anxieties. While making this image, the waves appeared to wrap the rocks in a warm embrace. This image was made at a remote national park in Australia’s island state of Tasmania.

  • I'm amazed by how vast and tranquil Lake Tahoe is. While making this image, I was able to catch the last light of day reflected in the still waters of the lake.
