Santa Barbara on a Warm Spring Day

Santa Barbara (CA) is a beautiful, laid back coastal city in Southern California... a really great place to shoot on a warm spring afternoon.

Sooooo many different ways to "be" at the beach (Venice)

One of the special places to love in LA is Venice Beach. You can go there knowing you'll always have an interesting time shooting.

Beach? What beach?

Wait a minute! I know I left that c-note in here somewhere.

She has her eye on him too!

Hey! just watch it. You're too close.

Ahhhhhh!

And, just how do I get off this thing?

Almost ready for a dip.

He does a really good shower, don't ya think?

Well, the damn GPS says we should just look to my left and we'll see the ocean.

So Mom, you're throwing sand in my face to prepare me for what...?

I told you this was a great place to contemplate death.

SNAKES!!!!!!

Yuck! That tastes awful. No wonder the fish aren't biting.

And finally... at least somebody has the right idea for "being" at the beach.

Shooting in DTLA

Shooting in Downtown Los Angeles today testing a new Olympus M. Zuiko 14-150mm 1:4-5.6II zoom lens. I'm quite satisfied with the overall results.
