the cold dark north
well, this is an old shot I took in the early morning in England.This was from my hotel balcony and I just loved the whole scene and how the light flows from one end to the other as well as the river (the Thames).

This was taken a couple of years back but i have a large print of it in my office and to be honest you need to view it full screen to do it justice so please click to view.

This was taken atop the Lanikai Pillbox Hike. The "Pillbox" shown is the lookout structure that was used during WWII to keep an eye on the coast. The beach shown is Lanikai Beach.

This was from a few years back when I was first experimenting with a digital camera, a Sigma SD9. The lens was a Sigma 10-20.

Decided to go for a slightly different angle as everyone else seems to have their camera a bit higher!
