Barcelo Maya Lobby

 This is the lobby of the Barcelo Maya Beach Resort where we stayed on our vacation in Mexico.

Pool at Barcelo Maya

 This photo was taken from the middle of the swimming pool at Barcelo Maya Beach Resort. The sky that day was a plain blue, featureless bowl, so I looked for a few clouds on ensuing days and managed to capture this one which I swapped into this photo using ON1 2023 Photo RAW editor.

Sailing past the Palms

 A nice palm tree shot on the beach at Barcelo Beach Resort. I really enjoyed grabbing this shot at just the right time to catch the sailboat right where I wanted it.

Sunrise at the Beach Mexico style

Judi can be seen walking through the palms near the beach at Barcelo Maya Beach Resort in Riviera Maya Mexico. We have vacationed there several times and enjoy it immensely. This is a sunrise shot.

 

Desert Sunset

 I was shooting photos of wild horses earlier in the day and camped near Simpson Springs out on the West Desert of Utah. That evening this beautiful sunset was displaying out to the west, too beautiful to pass up.

Golden Spray

 This photo was captured on an iPhone and enlarged using On1 2022.5. I decreased about 50

% of the noise but left the color and other aspects of the photo alone.

Joshua Tree Sun Burst

 With the sun starting to drop in the west I was able to shoot directly into it and with a tiny aperture to create this sun burst through the branch of a Joshua tree.
