A Colorful Descent in NYC

I used a Nikon D7200 with a Sigma 17-70 lens. I set my camera to aperture priority mode, and I then manually set my aperture to 2.8, and my ISO to 1000. I took two shots, but this is the composition and angle I liked the most. In Lightroom, I changed the temperature to make the photo a little cooler, I then added some contrast, vibrance, and clarity, added some color correction, sharpened and added some noise reduction to my photo, and fixed my tone curve.

Mariachi! Guernavaca – Mexico

EQUIPMENT: Sony DSC-HX300 – tripod

Editing: Picasa photo editor and Photoshop Elements

Settings: ISO 80 – F/4 – shutter 1/40


I always try to use the lowest ISO possible for the least noise in my images. I used f/4 aperture so the entire band would be in focus, but not the background. However, with my camera, the background was still very crisp. So I went into Photoshop Elements to manually blur the background in attempt to de-clutter the final image. A shutter speed of 1/40 was needed for correct exposure with the other 2 settings.

The Space in Norway

Photo was taken with Nikon D750 DSLR and Tamron 28-75mm/2.8 lens.

I used Lightroom to convert it to Black & White and increase some contrast.

Are You Looking for Luxury at the Next Level in Las Vegas?

The Cosmopolitan Room

The Pool at The CosmpolitanAre you looking for luxury at the next level in Las Vegas? The newly redesigned Terrace Studio Suites with a Fountain View at The Cosmopolitan are “just the right amount of wrong.” I loved the face design on the wall of the bathroom, my view of the Bellagio Fountains and all the amenities.

Everything in Vegas is bigger and better and this room with its cheeky nearly naked woman on the wall includes a 620 square foot room and a 110 square foot terrace with a king-size bed.


The View at The CosmopolitanOne of my favorite things was texting with Rose, who is the resident Mischief-Maker. She is available at all times of the day and night as she is a “chatty text bot.” If you are hungry and you text Rose, “HUNGRY,” she will share with you what is open and even send you the menu. She can help with shopping, hotel services, business services and even alert a human to help you.

Once Rose told me, “We feed all sorts of cravings here. Tell me what you’re in the mood for: Take out, Light bites, Sit down, Buffet or Prix Fixe?” She also gave me clues about Secret Pizza. I loved going to Egg Slut, Milk and the buffet for a quick morning fix after the fitness center. My lunch at ESTIATORIO MILOS GREEK RESTAURANT was superb and my dinner at Beauty and Essex was also memorable. If you want to dine with a show, try Rose. Rabbit. Lie for an unforgettable experience.

Do you love to be at the newest show on the strip? Opium opens April 10, 2018 and is the from the creators of Absinthe by Spiegelworld. You will feel transported to a new dimensions with this show that makes you feel that you have landed on an alternate planet. As they say: “Slip through the crack in the space/time continuum for a close encounter with a spaceship of fools.”


As a high-roller, make sure to spend some time with the games in the Talon Club on the 2nd floor. In the center of it all, make sure to stop for a drink at the three level Chandelier bar. Do not forget to have a photo stop at the high heeled shoe on your way back to your room.

If you are looking for some luxury pampering, spend some quality time at SAHRA SPA & HAMMAM. As you enter through the sand sculptured walls and waterfalls, you will feel your cares already drift away and they will completely leave you after your SAHRA SIGNATURE MASSAGE. Make sure you look your best for a night out of dining and dance at Marquee Night Club, by having your hair and make-up done at The Violet Hour. For the gentleman, you can get all dressed up at STITCH and make sure to check out the Scotch locker.

Let’s Go to Orissa, India

I have taken it with my DSLR (NIKON D90) on the eve of going out towards another island at Orissa, India. No filter is used here nor photoshopped. Only cropped it a little bit along with colour adjustments.
