There are times in life that you have to stop and smell the roses. And then there are times that you get stopped – not by roses, but by sprinklers!
Almost . . . almost got my backup camera soaked! Not good! And all because I wasn’t paying attention! Well, I was, but not to the [...]

I am calling this one ‘colors and stripes’ and you will see why in a moment. Not too much more to say on this one either.

Today is the 2nd Annual Photo Walk . . . I am really excited about shooting at the Farmer’s Market!
The last time I went (and that was a first) was with the Holga and Coffee Workshop sponsored by Specialty Color Services, but I was limited in my shooting due to the number of exposures on [...]

I am going to try NOT to be so prolific in my verbiage today – straight shooting, straight to the image.

Ahh . . . h . . . h, so you want the story after all!
It’s another one for my mother! Can you believe she use to forage for these little buggers when she [...]

Today is about shape, line, and texture, and maybe complimentary colors . . . and 15 minutes in wet cement . . . . . .
It is another Cota Street find. But sometimes things are just too good to pass by. Sometimes they blatantly ask for your attention. And sometimes you have to go out [...]

Ever heard of Photoshop? Ever heard of Photoshop World? Ever heard of NAPP?
I know most of you reading this on any regular basis, has heard of Photoshop – it is simply the best post-production tool ever created (okay, so that’s my opinion – but oh, the things you can do in Photoshop!)!

White Oleander – hey, at least I know what this plant/flower is!
Not sure I will be using this one for a card for my mother though – just haven’t figured out whether I like it or not.
Have you ever just looked at an image and felt, well, blah ! ? That’s how I am with [...]

Another day, another errand, another street walk in Santa Barbara.
And what do I find of interest? This moped! It looked like I could just hop on and take it for a spin!
This would be the coolest mode of transportation for traveling around Santa Barbara for photography! Except I think I would always be out photographing [...]

Today’s image is one of intrigue.
In color this image is kind of ho-hum, in Black & White it seems to have an entirely different appeal: the smooth flesh of the cactus, in comparison to the prickly spines, or thorns as it were, seem to mimic the effect of the muted lighting compared to the divergence [...]
