For most of the morning I have been editing wedding images from Bridgett & Ricky’s wedding in West Covina. It was 90\u02da 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 couple of afternoons to reach into the 3-digits, does that really count?<\/p>\n

So I had to get out and away from my computer at least for a few minutes. I grabbed my baby (YES, my Canon 5D is back in my arms!!) and walked down the street in the little condo complex I call home. It’s an amazing thing the things you can find and the variety of shapes and colors are astounding. Just to give you an exercise in not just looking at bright vivid colors, I thought I would convert all of these to a version of Black & White – I call it “a touch of chocolate” because I have added a split toning to the tint base that adds just a hint of brown to the image.<\/p>\n
