Dia De Los Muertos 2013
I spent a little time at the Hollywood Forever cemetery the other night during the Day of the Dead (Dia De Los Muertos) Festival and took these pics. It got really crowded after a while and the dark made taking photos tricky, but it was a cool cultural experience that I recommend checking out.

Washington DC
Recently I spent a few days in Washington DC with my mom. We visited a few friends, toured some monuments and museums, and ate some fantastic food. It started in the early afternoon when I arrived downtown by car after spending the weekend in Annapolis for a wedding. I met my mom at the lobby…

Elephant Seal Siesta
I took this shot at the Piedras Blancas Elephant Seal Rookery near San Simeon Bay in California along the famous Highway 1. It’s a very cool spot where you can get up close with some very large wild animals. Male Elephant Seals can grow up to 5,000 pounds. The rookery includes some information, a viewing…

Big Sur is music to my eyes
I was up in Big Sur recently, and I was astonished at two things – How amazingly beautiful the whole stretch of coast is for mile after mile How many people were wondering around with digital cameras trying to take creative photos (myself included) I did end up with some photos that I’m very pleased…

The Boston Public Garden
Boston really is an interesting town. It’s a town with a lot of character and history, it’s fast paced and the roads are hard to navigate but at the same time charming and beautiful. It’s home to towering buildings over head but if you look hard enough you can find some quiet corners. On a recent…

First visit to The Huntington
Spent a few hours wondering around the beautiful grounds of The Huntington Library and Gardens this weekend and had a great time checking out all the plant life. It’s a really peaceful place with so much to see, much more than can be covered in one day, so I’m sure I’ll be back. As always click…

Planet Jackson Square
I snapped a panoramic shot of the sun rising over Jackson Square (top) and the Mississippi River (bottom) in New Orleans and was able to photoshop it into this small planet.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Color
Looked down while biking to lunch the other day and found this “impromptu art instillation” on the street near an intersection. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

A Closer Look
One of my favorite parts of my new neighborhood in Pasadena is all the plant life along the sidewalks. From palm trees swaying overhead and fruit trees and dozens and dozens of flowers in bloom. This morning I walked around my block in South Pasadena and took these macro photos of some of the local…

Nevermore
I came across this little fella while driving around Arches a few week ago. I love the colors of the feathers and how they look like scales. Poetic, isn’t it?

By air or asphalt
I’ve been a passenger on a lot of long flights over the past few years. Usually they are cramped and tiring and they can be expensive and sometimes there is a loud crying baby behind me. But when you think about it, it’s really quite amazing to be able to blast off to another part…
