1st place prize. Joe Recto, a good friend of mine learning to ground-handle a paraglider before taking to the skies. A nice introduction to the club competition for me. Thanks, Joe!

3rd place prize, May 2010. This was my girlfriend Mikayla inside a cool underground passage in the Presideo. Most of my stereo photos like this one are done with a normal camera by taking two consecutive shots from different angles. In some cases like this one, that involves asking my subjects to remain motionless between the two shots as any motion will create obvious problems.

Took a prize in April 2010 I believe. I forget which one. This is the front entryway to one of the multi-million dollar houses overlooking the Marina Green.

Took another prize in April 2010 I believe. From the same flight to NewYork above, a huge cumulus cloud ringed by smaller clouds from the same rising thermal over Lovelock Nevada. Note the sandstorm in the background.
