"Quick Jackie! Name the first song that comes to mind for your 'longest day of the year' birthday?"
Without a pause she burst out singing a song by that most amazing sponge!
♫ "The Best Day Ever" – SpongeBob ♫
Mr. Sun came up and he smiled at me
Said it's gonna be a good one just wait and see
Jumped out of bed and I ran outside
Feeling so extra exsatisfied
It's the best day ever
(Best day ever)
It's the best day ever
(Best day ever)
I'm so busy got nothing to do
Spent the last two hours just tying my shoe
Every flower, every grain of sand
Is reaching out to shake my hand
Sometimes the little things start closing in on me
I stick my head out the window and I look around
Those clouds don't scare me, they can't disguise
This magic that's happening right before my eyes
Soon Mr. Moon will be shining bright
So the best day ever can last all night
Yes, the best day ever's gonna last all night now
....because sometimes you just have to go with the waves!

Heading out the door to work ... going to get me another round of mocha & muffin for the road!
I hope everyone has a great day!! Be back this evening to catch up with everyone.
Happy Sunshine Tuesday!!
I was working on a bracketed shot, trying to catch some flare ... some long shadows ... when into my scene ran these two surfer boys. It was a little rude, but I can understand their excitement. The waves were cranking! Besides, I ended up loving this shot, so they are forgiven. There wasn't much color to speak of so, in an unusual move for me, I went monochrome!
Happy Thursday Folks!!
Mono Lake on Christmas Day
Christmas Day arrived.
It would have been quite a bit of an understatement if I said it was cold… No, seriously. It was pitch black dark when I woke up, and at 21°F (-6°C) I was getting ready for the morning photo shoot.
You gotta do what you gotta do, like they say, right? I grabbed my gear and headed for the lake.
It was quite overcast, so I knew that the sky would not light up. Well, not only did it turn out to be the case but also it wasn’t getting any warmer for a while. I was busy keeping my hands warm between the shots. Oh well, what can you do? That’s how Mother Nature wanted it that morning.
It was not too windy, but it did not mean that the water calm. So, I ended up shooting quite a few per composition till I saw the decent reflections of the Tufa towers.
But then again, I was also enjoying the early morning of solitude (yes, not a single soul was at the lake that early) quite a bit. It was one of the reasons why I drove all the way out there.
Kind of mystical, these Ravens and this one was insistent that I take his image. But evidently, not his soul - he retains a bit of his mystery.

Just standing there for a moment while the water drops 128 meters into the canyon below. Hard not to stare at it a little longer than planned. The red bands across the cliffs are layers, millions of years of eruptions quietly stacked like pages in a book. A place easy to get lost in your thoughts.

Went out for a sunrise autumn shot this morning, but the sun did not make an appearance. So I pulled out this shot from our recent road trip. On this occasion, the sun did make an appearance as I strolled along the shoreline on the edge of the sand dune. A couple walking a dog passed me along the narrow beach ... and how fortunate to see one lone tree perched on the dune when I turned around to capture this shot!
Happy Sliders Sunday Everyone!!
“In the morning I bathe my intellect in the stupendous and cosmogonal philosophy of the Bhagavad gita, since whose composition years of the gods have elapsed, and in comparison with which our modern world and its literature seem puny and trivial; and I doubt if that philosophy is not to be referred to a previous state of existence, so remote is its sublimity from our conceptions.
I lay down the book and go to my well for water, and lo! there I meet the servant of the Bramin, priest of Brahma and Vishnu and Indra, who still sits in his temple on the Ganges reading the Vedas, or dwells at the root of a tree with his crust and water jug. I meet his servant come to draw water for his master, and our buckets as it were grate together in the same well. The pure Walden water is mingled with the sacred water of the Ganges.”
― Henry David Thoreau, Walden: Or, Life in the Woods
A reflection paints a hundred words and tells a story of a boat. Rich blue ripples frame wavering masts and the hull of the boat. The crop suggest an immpossible perspective until my brain re-orders its thinking. Even at dock, a sense of motion permeates. Quiet energy keeps company as it awaits the next adventure.

We tend to celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied ad multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.
We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.
“A concise poem about our work as stated elow
A place without being
a thought without thinking
creatively, two dimensions
suspended animation
possibly a perfect imitation
of what was then to see.
A frozen memory in synthetic colour
or black and white instead,
fantasy dreams in magazines
become imbedded inside my head.
Artistic views
surrealistic hues,
a photographer’s instinctive eye:
for he does as he pleases
up to that point he releases,
then develops a visual high.
- M R Abrahams

Before I left for my Yosemite trip, I captured a sunrise over Lake Michigan. The sun wavered in and out of a dense layer of clouds on the horizon. I really loved this fabulous, dilapidated beach fence, silhouetted against the sky.
I'm still going through the 'one or two fence shots' I managed to capture on my California trip and can't decide which one to post ... so I'm pulling this one from the archives. Caught a bit of a cold at the tail end of my trip so I'll be rummaging through the fence group later this afternoon ... from the comfort of my couch.
Happy Fence Friday and hope everyone has an awesome weekend!!
She stepped right into the spotlight!
She is a gerenuk, "a long-necked species of antelope found in dry thorn bush scrub and desert in East Africa. The word gerenuk (pronounced with a hard g) comes from the Somali language, meaning "giraffe-necked."
Love their long thin necks!! I was happy to find a bit of autumn at the safari park. I've been looking for it!!
Happy Tuesday Folks!
My love affair with the Imperial Beach Fishing Pier continues. I had an early morning opportunity to shoot a few long exposures of the pier. The sunrise clouds were beautiful as they scudded across the sky. The long exposure really gives me that feeling of motion in this image.
Thanks so much to EVERYONE for your wonderful comments and image dedications on my birthday. I am so happy that I wasn't forgotten after my long absence!! Flickr Peeps are the BEST!!
