Today is the first day of autumn 2020. The air temperature dropped to the high 30’s and with river water temperature is still relatively warm in mid-60’s that means a good chance of seeing river mist coming out of the water. I made a special […]
Sea Lion Family at Galapagos Islands
After I posted the sequential shots of two herons fighting in the Great Falls yesterday, I thought about another sequential photos of the sea lion family at Galapagos Islands we visited in 2012. The reason I treasure these images is their behavior similar to human […]
Two Herons at the Great Falls
We used to see many great blue herons at the Great Falls in the summer. But not anymore, I wonder may be there is not much fish in the river any longer! A few years ago I was lucky to capture these sequential shots of […]
Great Falls in Black and White
Great Falls of Potomac is one of my favorite photo spots in the Washington, DC area. The rocks are in grey and black color (except during morning sun) so it’s ideal for B&W photographs.
Giant Mums
I had an opportunity to photograph these gorgeous giant mums our dear friend grew at home a few years ago. I happened to come across these pictures during this coronavirus pandemic days. Hope you enjoy viewing them.

I love taking photographs of hummingbirds because it’s fun and challenging as they seem to be moving all the time. These were the images of the adorable hummingbirds I captured at a local zinnia flower bed two years ago.

Reflection of Black-eyed Susan
Black-eyed Susan flower as seen from a dew drop: I went to Brookside Gardens yesterday with my Olympus mirrorless camera (E-M1 Mark II) with 70-300 mm lens (equivalent to 140-600 mm) for the hummingbird shot but was disappointed to only see one. Instead I just […]
Glittering Dragonfly
I took this photo using my Olympus Mirrorless camera with 12-200 mm (equivalent of 24-400mm) lens. Camera setting were ISO 400, f/6.3, 1/160 sec. and zoom at 200mm. Sunlight made the magic so the wings looked like glittering jewels.
