I am always on the lookout for flowers . . . flowers for the note cards that I send to my mother, especially new ones, ones that I haven’t photographed before. Today I found these few stray flowers in a garden along my daily walking path – they have been there during all my walks, […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – August 21st August 19th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day MY NEIGHBORS GARDEN Opportunities ~ they exist everywhere, one must be but willing to acknowledge them . . . . . . Today is no exception for me. Mail is delivered to my house at various times throughout the day, it depends on the carrier assigned by the postal service – true for any postal […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – August 19th PURPLE SPINY CACTUS One last post from the town of Ojai. Walking down one of the side streets, I came across this patch of purple cactus. It was late in the afternoon and the lighting was just right – it actually caught my attention from across the street. Some things just beg to be photographed, […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – August 18th OJAI’s FLORA Yesterday it was about architecture and the Ojai Valley Museum, today it is about the landscaping. There were so many different varieties of plants and flowers, grasses and trees along my travels that I decided to put them all together in one post. And, of course, I have no idea what the names […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – August 16th July 30th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day Today’s journey finds me at a little strip shopping plaza off of Hollister Avenue, called Magnolia Plaza. I guess Ralph’s is the largest venue in the Plaza and there are a handful of smaller shops such as Supercuts there as well. What made me pull into the plaza is anyone’s guess, maybe because I had […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 30th Can you believe this month is almost over? And what’s more, more than half of 2009 is behind us. Today’s image is one I just printed and wrote to my mother (then forgot to add photos of my eldest son after I told her I was adding them!) a beautiful rose for my […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 29th July 28th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day I have noticed a trend emerging in my posts for this month with respect to this ‘photo of the day’ project – many of them contain more than one photo! Most contain multiple images. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? I am not sure it is either; however, the whole idea of […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 28th July 27th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day For most of the morning I have been editing wedding images from Bridgett & Ricky’s wedding in West Covina. It was 90˚ in the shade when I arrived there at 3:00 in the afternoon ! Hotter than I have seen it in Santa Barbara in at least 4 months – the Jesusita Fires caused a […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 27th July 24th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day Today I get my Canon 5d back from Mack Camera and Video Repair in New Jersey – WOO HOO! I don’t think you can imagine how ecstatic that is making me! It’s like getting your baby back safely in your arms! Meanwhile, today’s journey takes me to get my haircut in Ventura – that’s a […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 24th July 20th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day 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 […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 20th |
