Hong Kong Junk
from $143.50
This photographs show one of the few remaining junk boats left in Hong Kong Harbor. This one is used for tourist rides. The thick, humid atmosphere separates the modern Hong Kong skyline from the traditional design of the junk. I feel that this image looks especially nice in the floating frame options but feel free to choose the full frame options if you prefer.

A Stroll in Montreux on Lake Geneva
After our four glorious days in the Berner Oberland, we headed to Montreux on Lake Geneva. Montreux was a fun town and Lake Geneva was very beautiful with it’s sparkling alpine lake and views. We stayed in a funky and nice hotel called the Tralala in the old town, which is up the hill about [...]
Tough Choices at Bern’s Münster
One of the more striking features of Bern’s Münster is the depiction of the Last Judgment over the main portal, which contains more than 200 carved wood and stone figures. Justice is in the center with angels and the Wise and Foolish Virgins to each side. Above is the Archangel Michael bearing a sword and scales. [...]
The Olive Press
Gears, grease and weathered wood. A perfect medley of ingredients for an interesting photograph. Believe it or not, this monstrosity is for pulverizing tiny little olives. You know, those delicate little things we throw in our martinis. While exploring one of the barns at the Ballenberg Swiss Open Air Museum in Switzerland, I found this [...]
The Ogre, Monk and Maiden
Here they are in all their glory – the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, also known as the Ogre, Monk and Maiden. They are the world famous trio of mountain peaks that serve as the impressive backdrop to the Jungfrau region of Switzerland. About two hours into our hike from Murren down to Lauterbrunnen, we came [...]
Picture Perfect Barn at Ballenberg Open Air Museum
We are back from China and not suffering jet lag so I thought I would revisit Switzerland tonight. This shot is from an amazing place called the Swiss Open Air Museum in Ballenberg, Switzerland. The museum showcases Switzerland as it used to be. It is host to more than one hundred century-old buildings from all [...]
Three moods of Château de Chillon
What could be more inspiring than a sparkling lake, distant hills and Alps rich with atmosphere, and of course a medieval castle perched on a rocky outcrop at the water’s edge? Not much! During our three-day stop in Montreux on Lake Geneva, Donna and I visited the Château de Chillon, Switzerland’s most visited monument. I shot [...]
Awestruck in the Lauterbrunnen Valley
This is the beauty that awaited us after our two days in Bern. The Lauterbrunnen Valley is perhaps the most beautiful natural scenery I have ever seen in my life. My knees became weak when I saw this first hand. This is what I had been dreaming about since booking our flights last March. I [...]
Bern parliament building by day and night
There are a number of significant buildings in Bern, Switzerland and the shot above is of one of them. The Swiss parliament and government building was completed in 1902 and it is now a prominent part of Bern’s skyline. The granite slabs in front of the building, which came from the Alps, were not always [...]
Bern for a small taste of Switzerland
I wanted to choose a nice low-intensity place to to recover from the long flight to Zurich and change of time zone. Bern, Switzerland is the place I picked. It was a short train ride from the Zurich Airport and it fulfilled the promise of being a great spot to get our first taste of this [...]
Tales from the road – Bovine Bells Ringing in the Alps
I’m confused. To be as accurate as possible, I looked up the definitions for various members of the bovine family and now I am really not sure what is what. Cattle, bulls, steer, oxen, yearlings and heifers – I can’t keep them all straight now. I am not sure what this guys situation is but [...]
I travel the world in search of beauty and bring home what I see through my lens.
By sharing what I learn along the way, I hope to inspire others to pursue their passions daily.
