Your Bio

Hi, welcome to the galleries of Brian Hewitt, thank you for visiting.

While you're here don't forget to give pictures your thumbs up or down vote. To do so, move the mouse over the image and wait for the two thumbs to appear in the upper right corner. Select the one you want. And feel free to leave a comment, or even criticism if you feel so inclined. I welcome both. You can also view a full screen slide show of any gallery or even purchase prints and gifts (coffee mugs, t-shirts, mousepads, etc) if you see something you really enjoy. (Please Note: pixelation in slideshow does not reflect quality of original images.)

Latest News:
Well, I'm still trying to catch up with all the pictures I've taken over the holidays, and a whole new set taken during an unexpected return trip to Malaysia. (I got some great shots I've wanted to get for a while, I can't wait to get them posted.) So far I have gotten a couple of new New York galleries added: NYC New Year 2007 (featured) and Manhattan At Night.

Just added: my pictures from a trip to the Arganese Cigar factory in Santiago, Dominican Republic!

Thanks For visiting!

Angkor Wat : Made famous by the first Tomb Raider movie, Angkor Wat is a sprawling collection of ancient Khmer-style temples in Angkor, Cambodia, built for king Suryavarman II in the early 12th century.  Though I tried to be especially thorough with my old Canon, I'm not sure I effectively captured the amazing size and grandeur of the many, many temples that actually comprise Angkor Wat.  If you are planning a visit, I don't think it is possible to see it all and appreciate it in less than a week.

Mushrooms! : My wife and I were out and about cruising the estate sales, and I we found these extremely colorful mushrooms growing all around a neighborhood in Sandy Springs, GA. As luck would have it, I decided to bring my camera along in case we crossed the path of anything picture-worthy. (We have in the past, and I regretted not having my camera handy!) 

Anyway I've never seen red or yellow mushrooms before, and I thought these were lawn ornaments at first.  But then as I looked around, I noticed they were everywhere! Including places you'd never find lawn ornaments. And don't worry, I didn't try eating any of them!
