Visual Abyss

I guess I expressed my intentions before, to click potraits. How is this for a begining? Just could not keep myself away from clicking yet another nature inspired picture. It was very sunny the day I clicked this pic and wasn't carrying a UV filter, else I guess the wings would have come out better. Though the red color of this dragon fly is blending well with the wooden background.

These pics are again from my hiking trip to bear Moutain, NY. I was just trying my hands in against the sun photography, its interesting to see how different foregrounds and camera settings can affect the details captured in the picture. Note none of the pictures are digitally enhanced. They are right off the cam (not because I would have published them that way, but because I was too lazy to make the changes :) ).
Both the pictures above and below are from the same location, but different frames and different timings. The one below is when the sun was almost about to set, making the whole sky orange. Even with the DSLR the objects in shadow have come out a bit grainy, wonder how can i correct them.

Its amazing what you can get out of a seemingly simple photograph. Today was somewhat of a gloomy day, Clouds hovering over whole day. This is was one of the rare moments of the day when sun shined. My room was looking quite beautiful (even after me trying so hard to keep it looking like a bachelor pad) , I could not resist taking out my cam and capturing few random shots.

This picture appeals me, however I am not sure how to put the appeal into words. would someone like to help me out?

This is one of my favorite objects for a quick and awesome looking picture.. The Moon. Nobody can doubt its beauty. Last time when i tried capturing it, it was with my prosumer camera with 10X optical zoom, I tried capturing it with 48X digital zoom and with little bit of post processing even that looked stunning.

This time its with my new DSLR with 200mm zoom lens. Apart from cropping the picture, its untouched from when it came out of the cam. Pretty nice capture aint it.

Fly high in the sky. Mid of American summer on coney island beach, time to relax and chill out in cool ocean breeze. Seems humans were not the only ones enjoying, I'd say if this kite had any view of its own it would resonate with what i said.
