Sunset - Panama Beach, FL

One of the most gratifying things that we can do is strolling  barefoot on the beach at sunset. Even more if you’re carrying a camera and pause to take a shot! 

It’s undeniable that sunsets are so beautiful that leave us in awe, also that scene will remain engraved in our minds for ever!

You should try doing that sometime if you haven’t done it already and then you’ll understand what I mentioned above.

"Niagara in Blue"

This is my version of Niagara Falls I entitled “Niagara in Blue”. The original photograph was shot analog and printed selenium toned. What I’m showing you is the scanned image of a print, later enhanced with PS.

I hope that my version of Niagara Falls will be of your taste.

Let us pray!

“Now is a good moment to elevate a prayer for peace in the world. Perhaps the force of prayer be stronger that the bitter desire of war and lust for power. Let’s not succumb to complacence and total indifference of what is happening in the world. Evil exist only where is allowed to exist. There’s no immunity to immortality or defense by denial. However, truth is unchangeable only distorted or hidden.”

"Shellmetery"

I’m pretty sure that most people that have been to the beach and take a stroll near the water have seen all kinds of objects that the sea tide brings in daily.

Today you are going to see a picture that I shot and I named it “shellmetery”. This shot was taken at Tybee Island Beach in Georgia.

Farms - Text and photograph © H.J. Ruiz

Not many people talk about domestic animal farms, agriculture farms nor any other kins of farms. Why is that? I know that farms are an integral part of the greatness of our Country. The city society has a misguided opinion that farmers are a group of people that should live always in the quiet background and not worth writing about. 

Try this: Read any major newspaper and try to find any reference article about farms and you’d be surprised how right I am!

Just bringing this up because I find it rather unfair.
