A New Year and a New Fifty 1.4

Happy New Year all! I hope your New Year’s eve was a heck of a lot better than mine since I was laying in bed with my eyes closed due to the fact that I had to wake up at 4:00 AM Central for work! Anyways, I know it’s been awhile since I’ve posted any [...]

 

Happy New Year all! I hope your New Year’s eve was a heck of a lot better than mine since I was laying in bed with my eyes closed due to the fact that I had to wake up at 4:00 AM Central for work! Anyways, I know it’s been awhile since I’ve posted any new photos so here’s a few from today when I was out and about with Julie enjoying the beautiful Southern California weather. I should also mentioned that the photos were taken with a new lens (A Sigma 50 1.4 prime for all you gear heads out there) that I recently received so naturally I had to find a way to get out and play with it for a little bit. But that’s enough from me, on to the photos! Enjoy!

PS, if you’re wondering what Julie’s doing, she’s pretending to snap a photo of me as I take a photo of her.

Fall in Southern California… Plus some Lorikeets from the Aquarium of the Pacific

Back when I was a kid, summer was my favorite time of the year. Though I’m sure that had to do more with the fact that I had two months just to run around and do anything a kid wanted to do without having to worry about school than the actual season of summer itself. As I grew older, summer was still a favorite of mine until I became a drunken fan of the white powdery champagne that falls every winter in Colorado. So much of a fan that I became a season pass holder who somehow ended up with three different snowboards and would average at least one to two trips up the mountain a week in search of the powdery white stuff. And now, after having spent the last 5 years working through some very miserable winters throughout the Midwest I’ve had a recent change of heart. Fall is now my favorite season of the year as the temperatures are mild and the colors are bright. I guess that’s what happens when you get older. The little things become more important than they used to and the once overlooked pleasures such as being able to walk around with shorts and a t shirt on comfortably take precedence over the other things we had valued when we were younger. C’est la vie!

Anyways, I’ve got more photos from some events coming up including some from Khmer Arts Academy’s opening act for Dengue Fever just the other day. I’m just short on time when it comes to working on the photos since I’ve got to squeeze them in that little bit of free time that I have between my actual career and just life in general. In the mean time, enjoy this random mix of photos from a lovely fall afternoon in Southern California.
