SoCal

I'm just back from a two week trip to SoCal. It wasn't a photo trip so I took the opportunity to experiment with my iphone 5 camera and Instagram. This is outside the Pasadena Playhouse.

Locals and tourist alike flock to the Sunset Cliffs for, what else, the sunset. It's a fun scene.

2013!!!

I was out with my camera this afternoon looking for a New Years Day photo. I ran into Frank enjoying the warm afternoon sun and a cold beer at the Boardwalk. He's a Santa Cruz County local and a long time, hard core skateboarder. I made a still life photo of his feet, skateboard and helmet almost a year ago (see Feb. 16, 2012 blog post). Happy New Year Frank and thanks for your time!
