Happy New Year! January 1 is a special day for me because my
wife and I were married in India on January 1, 2010. It’s been six years and I
have to say that convincing her to marry me was the best decision I’ve ever
made. She makes my day, every day. We spend a lot of time together and yet we
can’t get enough of each other. We’re blessed. We had an amazing 2015 and 2016
will be just as awesome. 2015 was a year of travel and adventure and I
accomplished a lifelong goal to visit all 50 US states with a roadtrip to
Alaska. I also visited 5 different countries in 2015, and that is a personal
high for one year but I look forward to breaking that number routinely in the
coming years. 2016 has a tough act to follow, but the possibilities are endless
when you face everyday with the love and appreciation of a lifelong partner.
Thank you to everyone who has made this dream life possible, and most
importantly, my amazing beautiful wife Nisha!
Tips for photographers: Looking at the nearly 60 blogs I
wrote in 2015 it’s obvious that I’ve got my game face on when it comes to
improving my technique and vision. I’m shooting constantly and fine tuning my
skills. I can’t be satisfied and I won’t be. I’m coming close to mastery of the
tools at my fingertips but I don’t think my vision will ever stop evolving and
right now it’s still advancing quickly. I’m speeding out of control on the
“road to seeing” to use Dan Winters’ phrase, but my foot is still on the gas
pedal. I’m looking forward to the road ahead. Cheers to 2015 and making 2016
the best year yet! This picture? She’s facing a big window behind me at my
