    I always like to stop and watch the anemonefishes "dancing" in their anemones. No sooner than the first ten minutes of dive I found an anemonefish in an anemone that has a shrimp that was always getting in the way of the fish eye. Then the fish moved further out of the depth of the anemone to examine the commensal shrimp. In the viewfinder I could see the eye of the clownfish and the entire shrimp. Both became one subject, an unusual combination.

    As the largest waterfall in Europe, Rhine Falls is a spectacular sight. You can hear the falls roar from a kilometer away and feel the ground tremble when standing near them.

    High up in a small Chinese mountain town I traced the peaceful steps of locals circling the city's Chode Gompa. Half way around the long and dusty path I ran across this matted guardian lost in his own special world of domestic bliss.

    During a deep winter freeze, I was hiking through some canyons outside of Moab, Utah. There were frozen rivulets and beautiful ice patterns. This leaf was frozen into the ice and its bright contrast caught my attention.

    This photo was taken when I was taking photos of other insects as I normally did during macro photo hunting. i wasnt actually aware of this dragonfly since i was occupied with other objects. When I was about to take picture of it, it suddenly rained but lighting was just superb. I decided to take the shot regardless of the rain which caused my Eos 7D and 100/2.8 L Macro to get wet. The result had caused me to be overjoyed and hope it pleases the viewers.
