This the smoke cloud we can see from our house. If you look at it in X2Large or larger you can see just how big this cloud is. In the middle of my shot is a jet plane. It feels like it's burning all around us. Lucky for us it's far enough away, and lucky for my asthma it's blowing away from us. My heart goes out to all those in the danger area. I do wish them all safe.
August 29, 2009 This was done with the HDR technique. I was surprised on how the detail came out on the pedals. Best viewed in XL or bigger.
August 19, 2009 A Single Rose.

August 17th, 2009 Coyote This was taken at the Orange County Zoo. This is one of two in the enclosure.
August 16th, 2009 This is my third attempt at taking an HDR photo. (Thanks Ollie for the website heads up) This shot was taken at the entrance of the Orange County Zoo in Irvine Park. I love this zoo, it's really small and is only $2 bucks to get in. It is a great location for just taking the camera out and shooting some photos.
August 15th, 2009 This is the coolest bike. This is my husbands bike. He seems to think it's comfy, but I'm too short to ride it. :)
August 14, 2009 This little monkey just loves playing at the park, so that is where we are headed today.

August 8th, 2009 I had the most wonderful day. I went to the beach with my friend Vish. We were on a photo scavenger hunt. There were 20 items to shoot. I was playing with different techniques and this was my first HDR photo. Not exactly what I wanted, but I like how it came out. I wish there had been more of a sky in this shot (by that I mean more clouds)
