Going to the Salton Sea!
Photo by C. Strife on flick I’m a really, really lucky lady. This weekend I get to co camping at The Salton Sea Natl. Park, California. That’s really cool enough as it is. I could just say I’m bringing my camera and a tripod and leave it at that. But it actually gets even better. [...]

Animal photography is for the birds?
This is what happens when I try to get cleaver with my post titles. I wont do it that often. Promise. So my friend came over today so I could grab some shots of her adorable new puppy. Half poodle half something else fuzzy and cuddly. I forgot what. Anyway, the mission was to get [...]

The Moral of This Story: Always have backup!
I just broke (and fixed) Pare and Focus today. I installed a plugin which broke my site and my ability to un-install the plugin. And I did all this without a recent backup of my website’s files on hand. Brilliant! So I freaked out and broke into a cold sweat thinking almost a year of [...]

Back in the states… Jet lag
I don’t usually have too much problem flying across the states. There’s only a three hour time difference so even if I get a little out of whack it’s not anything an extra cup of coffee can’t handle. But when there’s more time difference than that my brain starts to melt a little. I’m better [...]

Smaller cameras are easier…
I’ve been thinking about smaller cameras. Ones that aren’t as big and bulky as my Canon 50D. I love my camera, don’t get me wrong. It can take amazing photos, and sometimes I get some good ones if I do say so. But it’s not the kind of camera you hand over to a stranger [...]

Italy so far: Rome
We’re in Rome, Italy. This is an amazing and beautiful city. The food has been spectacular for the most part. We’ve crammed in tour of the Vatican, the Coliseum, the Pantheon, and we made a visit to Termini to grab our train tickets for Florence (Firenze in Italian). This is our last day in Rome. [...]

Day Three: I’m hopeful
…Hopeful that I can keep this going.No picture again though. My husband’s camera made this weird crunching sound and then the battery died. Anyone ever had this problem with the Olympus Stylus? It’s the crush proof water proof version. I’ll just break down and drag out the 50D with the tripod and remote shutter tomorrow. [...]

Day Two: No new photo today
I’m not gonna lie, there’s no new photo today. For the same reason I didn’t do my photography project today like I really should have. Don’t know why but I really wasn’t feeling well today. I’m better now, and I’ll spare you a description of my ailments. Anyway, tomorrow is another day. A day in [...]

Day One: What a Day
My birthday is coming up. It’s on October 3rd. (It’s Sep 22 today.) My husband and I fly to Rome, Italy on Oct 2nd, so we’ll be just settling into our jet lag on the 3rd. Life is good. But we always do a nice Birthday dinner here in the LA area and since we [...]
