Pacific Grove
n my photos, I usually aim for 'photorealism', but because this long-duration photo (of a cove in Pacific Grove, California, at dusk) produced brushstroke-like ocean swirls, I decided to further increase the artistic feel by increasing the color saturation.

Takahe
The "Takahe" is a rare New Zealand native bird. These (flightless) birds are so rare, in fact, that they were thought to be extinct until they were rediscovered in the 1940s. Even today, only about 200 remain. This photo was taken at Tiritiri Matangi Island - a wildlife sanctuary near Auckland, New Zealand. (February 15, 2012. Nikon D5000, 1/200s @ f/6.3, 300mm, ISO 200.)
