Tulip in Black and White

I took this photo using a Canon 30D DSLR and converted the image to black and white.  I was going for a simple image and felt the black and white tones further emphasized the simplicity.

Pink Rose

I captured this rose as the sun was starting to set in the evening.  The lens is a Canon 60mm macro lens and I really like the bokeh that it can produce.

Bird Watching at Dover

While hiking around the White Cliffs of Dover, I saw these people bird watching and sightseeing.  I liked how they were standing and framed in the photo so I snapped a photo.
