photography: capturing the beauty of our world

Let me preface this page by stating clearly that I am not a professional photographer. However, as an artist, I do have an eye for scenes and storytelling. All of the images shown below are from recent travels and most were shot with an iPhone. I then did some quick retouching in Adobe® Photoshop to try to fully capture the elements of the scene as I saw them. - David Sloan
