All right, folks, time for something a bit different - something old and new. Old, because these are pictures taken well before the digital age (1970s), taken with an old Olympus film camera, but something new, because of the process of digital restoration and conversion. These are mostly taken from trips out west, and so are necessarily heavy on scenery. The first one is taken at the Black Canyon of the Gunnison, in Colorado - really an astonishing place. The next one is taken at the Grand Canyon from the lesser known North Rim. The third is approaching Zion National Park, in Utah, which remains spectacular, as always. The fourth is of some wildflowers in Zion National Park. The fifth one is the Little Colorado Gorge, as the little Colorado River joins up with the Colorado at the Grand Canyon. The next one is of some Native American kids selling jewelry somewhere in Arizona. And the last one is actually from Washington State - somewhere in the hills. Hope you enjoy these.
A collection of photographs, taken in the last six years, from some of my favorite places.

Contrasting old and new elements in the India of today.
These photos represent the ancient and modern India. The first is an example of craftsmanship that is really ancient (over 1000 years old), found in the Qtub Minar complex. The second needs no explanation. The third is architecture from hundreds of years ago, built for the rulers, and their minions.
