I appreciate you stopping by to sample a bit of my world behind the camera. I have been very blessed to have had the opportunity to travel and see many great things. During those travels I took many common photos of a far away land that opened my eyes to the common things we see everyday here in the midwestern USA.
I decided that these local common things were very worthy of my photographic attention. I have deliberately sought to pay more attention to my surroundings. Many call that "stopping to smell the roses". I have found that to be good therapy.
This website records many strange events or happenings. It explores wild abstract color and different ways to view things. I have always enjoyed intense contrast in photography. To me, color splashed everywhere is great ... sometimes even enjoyable pushed to the bizarre with manipulation programs.
Interested in having something photographed? Send your inquiries to nikonsniperguy@aol.com. I just might hop in the car and get it done.
Thanks for coming. I enjoy your comments and hearing how a photo strikes you. All the best.

Gorgeous. This shot reminds me very much of the movie filmed in Oregon starring Paul Newman called, Sometimes a Great Notion, based on the Ken Kesey book by the same name.
It truly is a beautiful place. I was there in the 80's, and the place won my heart.
This reminds me of my Udayamarthandapuram & Muthupettai trip and also Agathiar Paarai trip...
Check out these links... It's bout those trips of mine...

Beautiful composition...
Marvellous landscape.
Greetings from Spain.
Gorgeous place and terrifc image. Nikon or not, your shots are crisp and beautifully composed. I looked back at many of your photos and I like that they are of widely varied subjects and all filled with brilliant color. Thank you for visiting Tampa DP and for becoming a follower. I will try to deliver to your high standards. - Frank
just wonderful. It is so sprawling I love the shot. It really makes you think about the land and what might be living right there. Thanks for sharing
Looks like something Lewis and Clark might've paddled down w/Sacagawea. Awesome!

Love this. The little patches of water visible through the trees on the point of land in the lake....very cool.
right path ends the rootless.
