I put up this website to describe
some of my recent vacation trips, and also to share some of the
photographs I have taken on these trips. My site currently includes
pictures from New Orleans and the National Parks in Utah and Arizona.
In addition to the major destinations featured above, I have pictures
from Montezuma Castle National Park,
Bell Rock, and Phoenix.
I was just starting to take
pictures when the earliest photographs here (from New
Orleans) were taken, and in fact I used a Kodak disposable
camera to take these pictures. After this trip, I began using a Nikon
camera; the pictures from the Grand Canyon,
Lake Powell, and Monument
Valley were taken with this camera. Unfortunately, a computer
chip in this camera failed shortly before leaving Lake Powell, and I
was forced to use disposable cameras (not Kodak) at Bryce
Canyon and Zion National Park. As a
result, the picture quality of the photographs taken at Zion in
particular is not as high as the earlier photographs, although I am
quite pleased with the picture taken in the Temple
of Sinawava.
I am currently using a Minolta Maxxum STsi single lens reflex camera.
The picture at the left was taken using this camera during a visit to the Washington, D.C., mall. For more pictures from this test run, pay a visit to Tom's Travel Diaries: On the Mall.
I have included pictures of some of my favorite sculptures from the sculpture garden at the Hirschhorn Museum.
