Passo del Prado

On one of our visits to Europe we had to reschedule flights at the last minute and as a result had to lay over in Madrid for a day. While we lost a day in Rome I was able to visit the Prado Museum as well as the Sophia. What a delight! Velasquez, Picasso and El Greco to only name a few. My first visit to Spain left a lasting impression and I captured this moment outside the Prado.

Sunlit Steps Cafe' Blue

Lunch at Cafe' Blue on Lake Travis with my wife and a friend provided a bonus as we came across stone steps illuminated by sunlight streaming through the trees. One of the things I love about what I do is that you can find beauty in the most unexpected places and when you least expect it. Its one of the reasons I try to carry a camera with me at all times!

Mykonos Beachfront

Greece shares the intense Mediterranean light with its neighbors but I think there is more of an overpowering edge to it than in Italy. In this Mykonos scene I took some liberties, eliminating  some newer structures to focus on the Greek Orthodox church at waters edge.

Lick Creek Falls

I had an opportunity to visit the Sharplin Ranch in the Texas Hill Country for an all day plein aire session. With the rains the Hill Country has recieved in early 2010 the creeks and rivers are running again revealing scenes like this along Lick Creek.
