India's temples are full of unusual (think a temple full of holy rats) and quirky accents. Dharamsala's Vashnu Mata temple has funky details like stairs framed by a lion or alligator head and statues of a woman holding a severed head.

After a long day of Adirondack hiking, there's nothing better than a magical sunset. Newcomb Lake was the first Leantoo (campsite) during my 7-day backcountry hike this summer on the Northville Placid Trail. No filter could capture this natural beauty.

From the archives: Timmy Evans, 43, of Syracuse, NY after leaving the Samaritan Center Food Kitchen in downtown Syracuse. The night before, Evans' cousin told him his Grandmother had died a month earlier so Evans said he bought a bottle of Mad Dog 20/20, a fifth of vodka and ended up in the hospital. 'I almost died last night,' he said. Evans said he tried rehab for 32 days, but 'got hammered' when he finished and is now afraid to quit drinking." . . . . .

Most guests arrived after the ceremony and dinner were finished. The tables were removed and the dancing began. The men danced on one side of the hall and the women - separated by a tall wall - danced on the other. .

During the celebration, the festivities pause for the men to recite the afternoon and evening prayers. Many of the men - perhaps unconsciously - twist their side curls as they recite the liturgy from memory. .

I recently attended (and photographed) an ultra orthodox Jewish wedding in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I captured a ton of beautiful moments I'd like to share. These were taken a few moments before heading onto the street for the wedding ceremony. Framed by his brother-in-law and future father-in-law, visceral emotions are streaking through the 22-year old groom as he heads toward his awaiting bride he met twice before today.
