KODAK MOMENT of the Day

On his photo shoot!!

I was out for light trails shot and I love this picture most.

my picture is about my dog and my cat and my cat is loving on my dog and i think this is a cute picture because a lot of cats don't like dogs or dogs don't like cats

Some large colourful graffiti on the walls of a housing society in Chennai by St+rt India Foundation had made it a sort of a neighbourhood attraction. So the community arranged for a night of entertainment at this venue to celebrate the new art work and bring some cheer to its residents. This is where I spotted this girl representing a troupe of theatrical magicians all ready to perform her act. It felt like her enthusiasm had brought a little magic to the already exciting evening!

This sums us up ❤️? #meandbae #mygirl

Sliding down the dunes of Wadi Araba in Jordan is just one of the many sites of the region. Wadi Araba is one of the lesser known areas in Jordan. Full of sand dunes with hidden oasis's, it is a land roamed by camels, lived on by the local Bedouins.

Enjoying sunrise in Kauai

Early morning hot air ballooning in Sedona Arizona a second balloon was seen highlighted by the sun peaking through the morning mist

This picture was taken at Stella Point - 5685 meters above sea level - on top of Mount Kilimanjaro. After a 6 hour hike through the cold night, we reached the summit at 06:20. This was our first sight!

I brought my granddaughter Gianna to the Myakka River State Park near Sarasota, Florida to view the vast prairie of a coreopsis bloom.  Gianna delighted in running through the yellow blossoms with a small bouquet in her hand.

This photo makes me see how anywhere can make you feel alive even in the pouring rain.

This is my daughter on the swings at a park that is across the street from our home. She seems to have no fear, and will even close her eyes as she is swinging - because she loves the feeling of flying.

I have been traveling this road for around 35 years and this was the first time I had ever seen a rainbow so perfectly positioned!

Taking a moment to rest and enjoy the sunset with my mini anthropologist.

My daughter Jessie on her Grandfathers farm, riding his old bike.

Good times with Great people ~crystal mountain Kodak Moments ☺️

This was my Airedale's first birthday "party". I was so excited for his Airedale cake. Unfortunately, Scout wasn't quite as thrilled about it. This photo was taken in our home - Missouri. I could not decide if this photo should be categorized in Pet or Humor. It definitely applies to both!

for me on a rainy day just playing the guitar is so much more beautiful

A brand new day. In memory of one who lost hope, and encouragement to those in despair.

Time to go to bed, but our Lizzy was not cooperating.  When I told her she had no choice, it was time to go nighty night and cuddle up, this is the look I got. ♥️

A positive outlook on things can make even a COVID-19 quarantine day seem great! My son loves his pet fishes “Meen” and “Sakana” and decided to spend some time with them today talking to them and sharing a laugh together!

I took this photo of the Aruba sunset during our vacation in Aruba.

The moment we fell in love with our new home ❤️ We moved from Colorado to Oregon for my husband's job. Spending the day in Cannon Beach told us we would love our new home here.

Gorgeous view from honeymoon drinks & appetizers at Relais Blu on Anacapri.

This picture of my beloved cat Cals as she enjoyed the view, and her own reflection, looking out the back window at some birds at play. I love the picture because it shows her just enjoying what inside cats seem to like -- just looking out of people's windows.

I wake up to this scenery every morning, and for that I am very thankful! Photo taken last year in the Santa Cruz Mountains, California. This is what nature is to me

Early morning bike ride on Galveston Island.

My bud, a West Point Grad, preparing his buffalo chicken dip on the morning of Army Navy Game. Shot on a Canon AE-1 with Kodak Gold 200 film pushed 1 Stop. 

My new boxer puppy had been barking like crazy all morning. I tried everything to make her stop. I went over to open the blinds to the window, and finally she walked over and plopped herself in the sun. I suppose she was just looking for a comfy spot to rest. Seeing her so content made me remember why we got her in the first place. I had to get a picture of that.

The waters of the Tidal Basin in Washington, DC reflect the blossoming cherry trees just before dawn during the annual Cherry Blossom Festival.

On a clear frigid morning around 4am, I hiked around Cadillac Mountain looking for a great spot to setup my camera equipment. The temperature was in the 20's with very strong winds which made it difficult at first to capture a picture in focus, but once the sun rose above the horizon the rays gave off a stunning glow which made getting up very early and dealing with the freezing cold worth it to capture this inspirational shot.

I love this photo of my sister, my mom, my late grandmother and me captured one Mother's Day. We'll miss celebrating with my grandma this year for sure!

California blooming desert, day trip with Marley

On a recent day trip to the mountains, our family took advantage of an old rock wall and the afternoon sunlight.

Big brother & his baby twin sister's spending time at the park❣

Going for a walk everyday during this social distancing time helps to notice and appreciate what is around you. Dandelions always make me feel like a kid again. 

Our version of the Easter Bunny:) Our dog Jasmine was a good sport to pose for me and received some string cheese as her reward.

So deeply in thought...

There is beauty in everything and in every moment. Teaching your loved ones how to appreciate the little things in life.

We always stop by the goat corral when we visit the Maryland Zoo but never before have we made a friend as sweet as this! This particular goat wouldn't let my son leave his side and would lick his hand whenever he scratched behind his ears! Such a sweet moment!

This shot was taken in Stuart, FL just before the sun was about to rise and a huge rain storm was just ending.

This picture is special to me because it is a picture of my 2 babies, my daughter Harper who is 1.5 and our dog rocko who is 6. The love and bond between the 2 can melt anyone's heart. From the day we brought Harper home from the hospital he has been her protector. I took this photo at our home in our kitchen. I randomly walked in the kitchen and caught her smoochin his face. Had to snap a picture. He is not just an animal. He is our family and has been since my fiancé got him as a present 6 years ago for Christmas.

Cant go to the beach so surf the street.

The moon rises over Assawoman Bay in Delaware as the light of the setting sun fills the twilight sky with color.

When I heard about the #TheFrontStepsProject, I knew it was something I wanted to do, and it felt like it had to be on #film. Film for me is the epitome of an uncurated and often imperfect snap of reality, and it seemed like the only way for me to honestly capture this time in history. It was a special few days before the shelter in place, mostly because social interaction felt so needed, and it was rare to have an excuse to see a friendly face. With that said, it was important to me that everyone involved felt free to express their current state as it was, I didn't want anyone to feel pressured to put on a happy face if they were feeling the weight of the world, and I didn't want people to pretend to be sad and scared if they were enjoying this time with loved ones and weren't in a darker place.

"The #TheFrontStepsProject is incredible. I was thankful to squeeze in some families before the Mandate to stay home started here in #Hawaii. For my project, I did the shoots for free and in exchange, I just asked that they make a donation to the @bgca_clubs of Hawaii. I was excited to make an impact in my local community doing something that I love. Thankful that we were able to reach families and community members that I (alone) would not have been able to help."

Capturing this time in history, one family at a time.

Taken in Frederikssund, Denmark.

4 generations come together which includes my mom and grandmother. 

I just love the silhouette of the dogs and their walkers.

I took this image at my happy place in Dwight, Ontario. My wife's family has a place up on the lake at we do not do up there often enough. This is from out 2008 trip.

Marley at 9 weeks playing in the backyard.
