Baby Photos: Mei-Yu

My cousin Jackie is in town visiting from Iowa along with her now 15 month old baby girl, Mei-Yu, so we took the opportunity to do a baby photo shoot during Christmas weekend. I have never done formal portraiture and since my style of photography is primarily photojournalism, this was a loose and fun photo [...]

New Canada Photos Gallery

After two months worth of blog posts, I have finally finished processing my photos from Canada and added them to my website. Feel free to take a look at my Canada pictures gallery which includes sub-galleries for Vancouver and Victoria as well. I will also eventually be adding a few of my mom’s pictures when [...]

Canon 70-200mm f4 Lens

I just took my new Canon 70-200mm f4 lens out for a local test run at the Arboretum at Cal State Fullerton. I bought it for landscapes and downtown skyline photography but I am really liking the texture of the backgrounds for the flower photos. That leads me to think that the lens would probably [...]

Salton Sea Photos

Check out the new gallery of Salton Sea pictures on my website. The photos were made during two visits this winter in addition to my first visit in the winter of 2005. It is a creepy place for sure but a fascinating subject to photograph if you put some time into it. Tweet

Minor League Baseball Game Photo

It’s not often that I go back and post older photos on my blog but I haven’t been able to get this photo off my mind. The funny thing is that when I lived in Kentucky, this photo really didn’t strike me as being one of my better photos from my time there. However I [...]

The Lost City of Bombay Beach

There are parts of Bombay Beach that are completed buried under a few feet of mud. That bench for example is buried all the way up to the seat! There are some street signs in the middle of the mud field also. If this were a school field trip I would probably get extra credit [...]

The South Hills Hikers, Glendora Christmas Parade

The South Hills Hikers, Glendora Christmas Parade, California If you recall a couple blog posts ago, I wrote about South Hills development issues. Well I met up with the local environmental activists this morning at the Glendora Christmas Parade. The lady on the right is Kristin Parisi, who is running for one of two vacant [...]

Glendora South Hills Home Development

San Gabriel Valley Sunset, Glendora, California I heard today that “developers” are planning on developing over my favorite exercise hiking trail in the Glendora South Hills with homes and a road. This really makes me angry because there are already a few extremely large mansions near the end of these hills along with no trespassing [...]

So Close Yet So Far, Border Field State Park

Welcome to Mexico Cell Phone Text Message Last Saturday, La Jolla-based photographer Brian Auer and I went to photograph the U.S. border. Neither of us knew what to expect and turned out to be quite a surreal experience even while driving in. Frustrated Mexican Man Grabbing Tijuana Mexico International Boundary Fence, Border Field State Park, [...]

Dinner at Sunset

Restaurants, Santa Monica Pier, California I have a bit of a schizophrenic style of shooting pictures. Here is a good example of this. I got to Santa Monica Pier around 6:15 and was feeling weak from hunger. I walked up and down the pier twice shooting photos while looking to grab a bite before sunset [...]
