A Khmer girl rides her bicycle along the road south of Siem Reap. The children of Cambodia will be the country’s best hope for a land mine-free homeland but lack of mine education is a major roadblock to asserting positive change.

When Kilauea volcano’s Puu Oo vent was active I visited it often. On this particular cold January morning the winds were light, which allowed the superheated gases and steam to rise straight up into the sky from the glowing and spattering vents within Puu Oo. The cold air pushed the hot plumes back down in a swirling motion at sunrise. This allowed for the beautiful colors. Shot with a Nikon Dslr and the Nikon 10.5 lens from the north rim of Puu Oo vent. 30-second exposure.

Polar bears from all over western Manitoba bide their time in October and November on the western shore of Hudson Bay, just waiting for the bay to freeze over, at which time they disappear out onto the pack ice to feed on seals. While waiting for the ice to form, they sleep, snuggle, play, and play fight with each other!

The photograph is the result of unbelievable coincidences during a trip around France in August. In Paris, my tiredness after a full day’s walking was gone in a moment when the sun touched the horizon and spilled its light over the Jardin de Tuileries. A few shots were enough to capture the magic of the moment and the cheerfulness of Luna Park in my mind and heart forever.
