]]> Kids were off from school. I was on vacation! A trip to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, was just the thing to fill the day. Kids had a good time sketching and I took photographs.

]]> These are a couple of pictures from Moraine Lake in the Valley of the Ten Peaks.  It is located in Alberta, Canada, near Banff.  I have worked on these pictures several times and this has been the best I have been able to do so far.  Let me know what you think.

]]> I attended re:Invent, the Amazon Webservices’ first global conference conference.  The conference was held at the Venetian in Vegas.  The conference itself was good, but a little bit chaotic to get into some of the technical sessions.  Amazon underestimated the demand for a few sessions, but they adjusted by repeating the sessions.

I didn’t get to spend much time outside of the Venetian.  I walked the strip one night to capture a few photos.  It was a relaxing walk that allowed me to get away from the conference, meetings, work, etc…

Here are a few of the pictures I captured on my walk:

]]> This was my first time attending the Chinese New Year celebrations in Boston. The weather was nasty, but I suspected that would add “something” to the photographs. And I think it did.

The lion dances, the rituals and the colors were all fantastic. It was loud as it should be. I suspect the weather had an impact on the crowds, but I did not complain :-) All in all, a good day out shooting.

]]> My highlight of the Florida vacation was the visit to the Kennedy Space Center. It just stokes the imagination of what we can do if we are driven towards a goal. The place is over 50 years old and still operational in every aspect. The Shuttle launch pads are being dismantled, but the Vehicle Assembly Building is being modernized. It is being retrofitted to handle the private space enterprises in addition to the exiting NASA efforts.

The Vehicle Assembly Building was the largest building by volume when it was built. At 130 Million cubic feet, it now stands as the 6th largest. The roof can fit NY Yankee stadium footprint with room to spare! An impressive building.
