I have been taking pictures for as long as I can remember. Went from fully manual Russian cameras and self-developed film to digital point & shoot (which seemed like a miracle for a while...ha-ha) to DSLR (which seemed like a miracle on steroids) to an iPhone camera, which still seems like the best miracle of all. This is my preferred camera most of the time now, it is always with me, and if it rings occasionally, so what?

Spring finally!

I have managed to catch some tulips in Duke Gardens this year, but only because it was so cold for so long that they were late to bloom.

Endangered species

In USA pay phones are practically non-existent by now, but in Switzerland they look like they are determined to survive. They even evolved into something almost cool looking…

Yesterday we had our first snow and it was gone in a matter of hours. But it sure was beautiful while it lasted.

There is nothing more photogenic than red door. And if I am exaggerating, it’s only a little!

I hoped these birds will take off as I were taking the shot, so I could catch them in flight. Nope, no luck. I tried to shoot it again and again…until I lost my patience. Birds – 1, me – 0.
