in a remote village in Northern Vietnam. I snapped this picture north of the village Sapa Vietnam which is one of the poorest but most beautiful regions of Vietnam. This little girl who is probably no more than 5 years of age is carrying and caring for her young brother while her parents work in the rice fields. They came down from their hut to meet us because we brought a few small candies for them to eat. The girl and boy had never tasted candy before and they were delighted with the small candies we gave them. The trip was heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. They had so little but treated every small gift as something amazing. While it seemed like I had so much compared to them, I realized when I was there that I had very little compared to them. They had learned to appreciate each other and their families as cherished possessions while I had been taught to cherish material things. It was a moment where I think we all had reason to envy each other. What an eye opening and life changing experience it was for me.

We have some beautiful sunsets here in La Jolla, I was watching one and took this picture of my bike right at sunset.

One of my more favorite photos from a recent trip to Vietnam. I was staying in a small city outside of Saigon and every day it would rain and pour. I would go and take pictures of people doing their ordinary things in the flashes of heaviest rain. These girls rode by and they began laughing as they saw my camera. They had as much fun watching what I was doing, as I had watching and photographing what they were. Several minutes later they rain stopped and they probably rode on and were completely dry 15 minutes after that. It's an amazing place.

Went down to Sunset Cliffs tonight to take a photo at sunset.

Tonight, Tu and I went out to take some photos. She brought along an umbrella and we let the wind carry us away.

I went to see my brothers band play and there was a real cool alley that had some interesting lighting coming from a street lamp. Geno went down the alley and let me take some pictures of him. he's a great and photogenic model.

Just got back from Las Vegas and took this picture of Tu at the Mandarin Oriental. It is a fantastic and beautiful hotel there (no casino).

Went to Balboa Park in San Diego tonight. We found a window that was lighted from the inside and snapped this picture.

I recently returned from a trip to Banff National Park. Since it was offseason I seemingly had the place to myself (minus a lot of tourist busses). This picture was taken off the road when it was clear. The scenes there were very dramatic. I highly recommend that you visit if you like to take landscape photos.
