Went to Arizona for a wedding reception this past weekend.  Decided to take in some Spring Traning - Cactus League style.  Got to the game (Cubs vs. Angels) early and took a couple of shots of Jacque Jones in the outfield keeping his eye on the ball, and getting ready to make a catch.

Went to the San Diego Zoo a couple of weeks ago.  Didn't get much - but I liked the one of this Egret.

Took these 2 shots of an old barn this weekend while out camping near Oak Grove, California.  

Spent Mother's Day camping at the beach in San Clemente.  Here's the obligatory surfer shot.  Down in San Clemente they have a train whose tracks run right along the beach.  Here's nice sunset shot.  And Mother's Day would not be complete without some flowers.  Enjoy!

Had to go to UCLA Medical Center today.  This first shot is one of the medical buildings.  This next one is my Mom holding my Son in the waiting room.

Here are two challenge entries:  An old pic (if you call last week old), taken at the Antique Steam Engine Museum in Vista, CA.  And a new pic, from this morning in Old Town Temecula.

Here are some more random posting from my archive.  The first 3 shots are from Lake Tahoe - A wooden fence at the Stream Profile in South Tahoe - An old scraggly tree at Vikingsholm - A shot of the lake and the flag from the deck of the Tahoe Queen.  Next, a large cloud formation from my backyard.  A sailboat in San Diego.  And last, but not least the sun setting in Idyllwild, CA.

In my post on March 19th, I displayed a series of photos taken at a Civil War reenactment.  I have received a couple of requests to do them in sepia.  One of them came out really good, so here it is drummer boy.

Took a drive out to Vista, Ca today to see a Civil War reenactment.  Got there in time to see the battlefield before the 'fight'.  I was able to catch this Union drummer boy reflecting on the coming 'battle'.  Even Honest Abe was there.  Here are a couple shots of the Confederate line during the 'fight' - Line #1 Line #2 Line 3. (pretend you don't see the houses in the background)

This is my first real post.  A couple of previus attempts didn't go so well (guess I should have paid attention to the directions - thanks to codepoit for helping me out).  This first shot is Art's Deli in Studio City.  The next is a shot of the temple at the Aladdin in Las Vegas (this image was enhanced a little with photoshop in order to make the moon stand out).  I took a picture of these tulips at Disneyland a couple of weekends ago.  I really like the way it came out.  And last, but not least, the lake at Harveston in Temecula.  Enjoy!
