The edge of a tropical plant's elongated leaf is shown in macro mode.
Also from my parents’ yard (like this one). Did I mention I like my parents’ yard?

Mack the Knife
The claw-like leaves of a palm leaf with the sun's rays shining through.
In my parents’ yard. They live in South Florida, which was home to me for many years.
The evening breeze
Stems of long grass flutter in the cool evening wind.
One of my most favorite photos. Not sure why it’s not one of my more popular at Flickr, but I like it. A LOT. Taken in North Bethesda, MD, in our community.
Washington DC panoramic
In May of 2007, I happened to be at the top of the Key Bridge Marriott Hotel in Arlington, VA. That hotel has the most amazing view of DC and Arlington from its ballroom, which sits right on top of it and has floor to ceiling windows.
I also just happened to have a video camera and tripod with me (ahem), and took some footage of the DC skyline, the Key Bridge, and the Potomac River. That footage sat around on my computer till last week, when I finally had the time to edit it properly and to work on a soundtrack for the video.
This video is the result. You can download it below, or view it at Vimeo or YouTube. (The soundtrack doesn’t sound as good at YouTube, their compression isn’t that great.)

By the way, I took this photo that same evening, from the roof of the building. The hospitality manager was a really nice guy and he let me go up and spend about 15 minutes taking photos up there.
Life, as I want to know it
Early morning just outside a forest near Natural Bridge, VA.
