Three Happy Women

Posted on by

This is towards the end of a day where I had some help. …

These three women were walking up towards the top of Fillmore, very close to where Fillmore crosses Washington. They laughed when we started shooting off the great large flash units.

My friends, David Dellinger and Jens Madsen, helped me by lugging around some giant battery packs for my studio lights. We had three studio lights, and three battery packs in back packs, and three studio lights. Mine was a ring flash, and they had one 1600 Alien Bee each. We were connected wirelessly to my camera, and we just walked around blasting the Fillmore Jazz Festival with lighting. …

🙂 It was a lot of fun for me, but I do think David and Jens got a little tired of hauling my stuff around.

Shafters of Fallbrook

Posted on by

Here, we have four of The Shafters of Fallbrook. These men really love their cars, their family and their friends! I know the order may be a little skewed, but they really do love their cars, talking about cars, looking at cars, working on cars. …

And they meet regularly, on a Saturday morning to do just that. … Talk about cars. … Let us not kid ourselves, they do talk about cars, but they have their coffee with friends, and their breakfast with a cute waitress, and friends.

Saturday is friends day. … And cars.

A Great Ride

Posted on by

In getting ready for an auto show, I was wandering through some of my auto images, and this one popped back into my consciousness as a childhood dream. Yes. I always wanted one of these great car/truck things. …

I know, 😉 .. It is not a car/truck thing, but darn it, I still want one. … Of course the milage may not fit the wallet, but a dream is still a dream.

Sun With Two Towers

Posted on by

Over the past few weeks I have been in negotiation with a large company to shoot some commercial buildings. I submitted this image, along with a few others, as a sort of resume.

Things were going great. I made sure my passport was in order. We were in final talks for the first shoot, and then, … nothing. … Bummer. … It was going to be a very good gig, and the work had the possibility of being amazing! I had also joined the CPS (Canon Professional Services) team to ensure that I had the best equipment for the job.

It was a very nice dream, and I enjoyed the ride very much. … Now back to work. 😉

And the Wild Flower Season Begins

Posted on by

We have had a wonderful set of well timed storms this year. The ground, and spring growth, have never dried out since the storms began. As the land started to dry, another storm came through.

That little cycle of rain, followed by a small pause, followed by rain again, has been the way of this winter. … Like a gardener coming through with the water can every couple days, ensuring the harvest of flowers will reward the conscientious watering.

This is at the North end of Fallbrook, overlooking the Santa Margarita River valley.
