Varanasi, Bandhavgarh, and Mumbai

Art in Alaska Airlines Magazine
If you are flying on an Alaska Air flight this month, make sure to browse through the magazine in the seat pocket!
I do think it is great that I am in the issue that Russell Wilson is also featured in. Unfortunately, I think my staff was more excited for the Russell Wilson article than mine!
If you are not going to be traveling on Alaska this month, they also have a digital edition of their magazine.
Holi, The Festival of Colors
Holi has brought me back to India. We experienced the Festival of Colors in the ancient Vrindavan temple near the city of Mathura. I am happy to say the cameras survived, covered in rain guards.
Celebrated all over India since ancient times, Holi is an annual festival which takes place on the day after the full moon in the Hindu month of Phalguna. Originally Holi was an agricultural festival celebrating the arrival of spring. In keeping with this tradition people now choose to celebrate the occasion by throwing brightly colored spices or herbal powders into the air. Symbolically they are ridding the gloom of winter and rejoicing in the colors and liveliness of spring.
Tech Tip #2
Using Elements of Design: When I photograph, I am always looking for elements of design such as line, pattern and texture, as visual queues. Shot on South Georgia Island.
