Tigers and erotica

March 7, 2018 – 11:29 pm

The photos posted here were taken in 2016. The composite above was created from photographs captured in Ranthambore National Park, where we were fortunate to see a tiger fairly close, though not close enough for the in depth personal portraits that I usually enjoy taking. From Ranthambore we made our way to the Keoladeo National bird sanctuary. What great things to behold. After visiting the well preserved erotic temple statuary in Khajaraho, we finished our journey in Delhi, enjoying a neighborhood market and more sights of that city, both old and new.

Pride 2017

August 3, 2017 – 9:15 pm


The San Francisco Pride Celebration and Parade this year was on June 25, 2017. For the last couple of years I’ve photographed and marched with the Verasphere. There’s a lot of time during the staging before the parade begins to see old friends, chat, and take lots of photos. They’re a friendly, colorful, energetic, creative, bunch of people.




To see my complete portfolio from Pride, visit my photo page, where photo prints are available for purchase. Numbered and signed prints are available from me directly at fletcher@fletcho.com.

Carnaval San Francisco 2017

June 14, 2017 – 11:27 am


On the Parade Route
This year was the 39^th Annual Carnaval SF Festival held on Memorial Day weekend. For me the highlight of the event is the parade on Sunday. I always arrive early in the morning in order to shoot photos during the staging. Starting at about 8 AM, people are arriving, hanging out, getting makeup on, and doing some last minute rehearsing. During this time I’m strolling and I’m pretty relaxed. Once the parade starts it’s busy as hell, running, shooting dancing and marching, and it’s a ball, but tiring. To see the complete portfolio, larger sizes, or to purchase prints, go to my photo page.

India 2016 – Bundi

March 29, 2017 – 10:45 am


Click on any photo to see larger image.
We spent several days in Bundi, Rajasthan, in November, 2016. It’s a small, pleasant city, with fewer tourists than many of the places we visited, such as Pushkar. We enjoyed walking through the town, taking photographs, meeting people, and enjoying the sights around us. I was able to further explore, through the creation of portraits and other photos, aspects of the culture that are so different than what I’m accustomed to.
Looking down on Bundi, from the castle. There’s a belief that the blue color keeps mosquitos away.

You can see earlier portfolios from this trip at: Delhi 1 Pushkar 1 Pushkar 2 In the next few weeks or months, I will be publishing one more portfolio of photographs from this trip. Stay tuned.
