Beets

Yes, it's been a while but I have some new images to post. A few months ago I bought a Canon 5D Mark II off eBay and I've been loving it! I still love my Hasselblad but check back for more photos shot with my Canon. Have a great day!

Eeks, It's Been A While

Happy new year, all! Well, it's been a lot easier sticking with other habits like working out and eating right but sadly my blog-writing fell off the wagon. I'm going to give it another shot as I've got plenty of material to post so I'll keep it short and sweet.

Here are a few images from a cyclo-cross bike racing series that my boyfriends competes in every year called SoCal Cross. I'm not much of an action shooter especially with my Hasselblad so I took photos of other things that I observed at the event. The event was held in Oceanside, CA near Camp Pendleton and part of the course ran alongside the ocean for an added challenge.  The day was cold but the sun was blaring.

Happy Thanksgiving weekend, everyone!  We enjoyed a homemade Thanksgiving dinner for two including curried butternut squash soup, roasted turkey breast, roasted brussel sprouts, mashed potatoes, and cranberry apple compote with spice candied nuts and vanilla ice cream!  Yum.

Here are a few more photos from our trip to Canada.  Enjoy!

Oh Canada!

A month or so ago my boyfriend and I spent our "summer" vacation in Vancouver, Whistler and Vancouver Island.  The air was fresh, clean and crisp.  We didn't get a single day of rain - unless you count the mist in the rainforests.  Yes, Vancouver Island actually has rainforests!  They hug the coastline and though they are far less tropical than what you'd see closer to the equator, they're quite stunning.  I'll be posting some more images and details on our trip soon!

Lovin' La Jolla

A few months ago I was asked to participate in a portfolio review for the American Photographic Artists San Diego chapter.  I always enjoy these events because it's exciting to discover new talent and to offer up my 2 cents of advice.  Since the review was scheduled on a Saturday morning, Wendel and I decided to extend our visit and hang out in La Jolla for the weekend.  Neither of us had spent any time in the beach town so it was fun to play tourist.  We stayed at The Grande Colonial, a historic hotel overlooking the ocean.

Here are some photos from our trip....

I'm Back

It's been far too long since I've posted and my apologies for not keeping up!  Things have been busy on my end but I'm going to make a habit of carving out more time for things that I love - like photography and blogging!

Stay tuned for tomorrow's post for some lovely images....

More of the Queen Mary

Some more photos of our visit to the Queen Mary ship in Long Beach, CA.  I wanted to capture some details of the boat that you might exactly expect.  The first image is a glass case with rolled up flags.
