I'm making a sweep through some past photos so that I can archive everything from that year. This is from the LA County Fair in Pomona. It was the last day of the fair and I knew it would be crowded so I didn't even think of taking my tripod with me. As a result, many of my night shots were blurred due to camera shake. This shot was illuminated well enough that I could take the photo at 1/30th of a second. It is one of the sharpest night images captured during that visit.
This wide view is cropped down from a single image.
A young lady enjoys candy floss. The candy gets a ray of sun and became candy sunlight. The miracle of the summer evening. The beauty is not a model, but stranger. Street photography.
My favorite treat in the whole wide world is ice cream. I adore ice cream. My second favorite treat is candy, especially anything with peanut butter in it. So when you combine my two favorites in one treat? Heaven, bliss, nirvana!!! This is Creamy Creations Peanut Butter Cup ice cream and it is so rich, decadent, and sweet that my mouth waters simply looking at this photo. I got this for my mom over the weekend and she was kind enough to share a scoop for my image... and for my tummy!
New Braunfels peeps... there is a new ice cream shop open with homemade, to-die-for, ice cream located near Creekside. It's called Tipsy Cow and half of the flavors have alcohol. The Bailey's Salted Caramel gives me shivers on the side of my face. It's sooooo good.
I really overestimated the amount of candy I needed to stuff the Easter eggs for the church yesterday.

White Shoal Light
This crib style light is located approximately 20 miles west of Mackinaw City and 2.6 miles northwest of Waugoshance Island in the waters of Lake Michigan. Its candy-stripe design is among the most instantly recognizable lighthouses in the Great Lakes.
The shallows around White Shoal had long presented a hazard for vessels entering the Straits from the either the North Shore or the Manitou Passage. Lying in an east/west orientation, and almost two miles long, the shoal was so shallow that its west end broke the water's surface.
With the dramatic increase in vessel traffic in the late 1880's, the Lighthouse Board specifically identified White Shoal, Simmons Reef and Gray's Reef as three Straits-area navigational hazards requiring immediate demarcation. While the construction of permanent navigational aids was preferred, it was soon evident that the anchoring of lightships over the hazards represented a significantly more expeditious and far more cost effective solution.
This crib style light was built in 1912 at a cost of $225,000.00. In addition to a fog signal, it also had a submersible bell that would toll the number "23" to warn off mariners. This early 20th Century technological innovation was an audible precursor to a mid-Century innovation using radar, RACON, which was later installed at this location.
Because of growing freighter traffic in and through the Straits of Mackinac, this light was part of a larger plan to build lighthouses to protect ships and mariners in the area. This is one of the first three "lightship stations" of the Great Lakes. Its construction, along with Waugoshance Light, was a "major engineering feat" because of its distance and isolation from land. Until 1910, Lightship LV56 served at White Shoal. Construction for this light began in 1908: the crib pier being built in St. Ignace, and transported by ship. The keeper house was accompanied by a fog signal building that housed a diaphone, that has since been removed.

Christmas is almost here! was out looking at Christmas lights and there was this decoration that I quickly snapped a photo of. The bokeh in the background made this shot look particularly nice to me
"Flying Saucers sweets are small capsules of rice paper filled with a Sherbet Filling. First produced in the 1950's, these have become a retro favourite. Each flying saucer is made from rice paper that has sour sherbet, which creates a zingy, explosion that melts in your mouth:)"
