FacebookGreen eyes, great light
Sometimes when things go wrong, it can actually make them go really, really right. For these pictures, I'd planned to meet up with Amanda an hour earlier in the day, and we were going to go downtown to my favorite spot with some balloons. However, I got stuck at a horse show, and by the time I got out of there, →
Welcome.
It's spring break, y'all!! :-) Yesterday morning I had to drop off my car at the repair place because, as I was rolling up my windows at the barn on Tuesday, my driver's window suddenly fell inside my car door. If you've been reading for a while, you may remember that this happened to my →
13,930 – New old things
13,930. That's the number of pictures I've taken with my new camera since I got it six months ago today. I still have a fair number (probably close to 1000) in the hopper waiting for me to go through them and delete, oh, about 90% of them if not more. I'll get to it at some point. Spring break is →
Neighborhood music
This past Saturday was Second Saturday, so John and I walked over to the coffee shop across the street from us to grab a drink and watch Stoneberry, the band a friend of mine is in, play. It was a kick to just hang out and people-watch and listen to some good live music, and get to really relax and →
Two turntables and a MacBook Pro (December Second Saturday)
Seeing as I had two Moose posts last week, and as how yesterday's post was horse-related, today's Moose post has been pre-empted in favor of something non-equine. Don't get me wrong -- I love what I do. I really really do. I'm blessed to live where I live and have the life that I have. But lately I feel like this →
Goldilocks and the three cameras
Yesterday I spent most of the day down in Lathrop, playing assistant shooter for an event at the Harley Davidson dealership down there. This would have been a lot more fun if it hadn't been the ONE RAINY DAY IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS. And let's not even talk about Weather Channel's upcoming 10-day forecast, which predicts nothing but PURE →
After two months of 6-7 day workweeks, it’s hard not to think about the beach
I've been working Saturdays the past couple of months because in some addled corner of my brain, I thought the extra money would be nice. I, of course, wasn't considering all of the other things I'm doing -- work, grad school, water polo, freelancing, Moose (ok, he wasn't back in the picture at that point) that it might be nice →
All sorts of autumn-y goodness
I've been keeping an eye on the trees for signs of fall color, but so far I'm only seeing bits and pieces here and there. I know though that any day now, I'm going to wake up and walk out of my front door, and the trees on my street will be red and orange and gold and glowing in →
This turned out to be a more interesting evening than I’d thought it would be
So here I was, just beginning to write a quick blog post with a picture from tonight's Second Saturday walk around midtown Sacramento, when I heard 8 shots fired in a row. I looked up and said, "Gunshots." Without looking up, John responded, "Firecrackers." Then 4 more shots. Nope, gunshots. Turns out four people got shot the next block over →
Here's the rest of those Gladding, McBean pictures
I know that the company is called Gladding, McBean, but I still feel rather awkward and ungrammatically-correct putting that comma in there. Anyway, here are a few more GMB pics--as always, check out the rest on my Flickr gallery. . . . . . .
Gladding, McBean Factory in Lincoln, CA
OK, so I've been sitting on these pictures since, er, May. I've been meaning to get around to processing them, and it just fell down the list. Anyway, back in May, I went on a photography tour of the Gladding, McBean factory in Lincoln, CA (about 30 miles or so from me.) The tour was set early in the day, so →
