Kid with a boat in hand pointing
Picture of a statue from lovers point recreation area along Monterey bay coastal bike path. This statue was looking so real that I looked at what this kid was pointing for a sec."Yesterday's Dream -- Tomorrow's Memory" is a bronze sculpture by Dorothy Fowler (1990). It was commissioned by the Pacific Grove High School Class of 1944 as a memorial to Lover’s Point and to the individuals who left home to fight in the war. "Yesterday's Dream -- Tomorrow's Memory," a poem by Lorraine Duncan, accompanies the sculpture.

Fall colors in Peninsula state park, Wisconsin
This picture was taken during our visit around Chicago to see fall colors. Peninsula state park is part of Door county Wisconsin, which captures most of the colors of fall season. This picture was taken from a view point tower at the state part. The road running through the colors looked like a giant tree with colorful leaves from top.

Antelope Canyons - a beauty from flash flood
Antelope canyons are the most visited and photographed canyons in the south west. These canyons are caused due to the flash flooding. Even in present days these canyons are victims for flash flood. Due to this danger nature of canyon, only limited access is given through licensed Guides. The light peeping through the canyons causing colorful reflections are major reasons for any photographer to visit this place.

Flying like a bird

Who says man cannot fly?
This photo was captured after my first sky diving when I am back on the ground. The AFF(accelerated free fall) diving was an awesome experience for me and glad to get trained from extremely experienced instructors at Lake Elsinore Skydiving School. Elsinore scenic valley with natural lake, next to Ortega mountains in Southern California gave a great location for the dive. This place is the longest running skydiving school in North America since 1959.
