Bells of the Valley
This was a beautiful little flower we
found during a recent walk.
It did not last long though, the next time we went back
it was gone. Luckily I have a good way to
save it. :-D

Pink Bells
Not sure exactly what kind of flower it is. (This
is one of the rare times that the Internet has
let me down!) But I like it... the flower that
is... not the Internet... well I like that too, but you know what I mean! :-D
Yes, as a matter of fact I am posting very late at night and I am past ready for sleep!

La Purisima Mission Bell
This was taken the first day experimenting with a new present,
a polarizing filter. It made the sky much more intense.
There is a never-ending supply of wonderful subjects
at the California missions.

Santa Barbara Sunset
This is a little different angle on an image from a
couple weeks ago. Santa Barbara's business area was
virtually flattened by a 6.3
earthquake in 1925.
When they rebuilt, they took the opportunity to
enforce a strict "Spanish style" building code.
It has made for a really nice feel to the downtown area to this day.

Courthouse Bell
I have a customer that was looking for
images of the Courthouse for her father for Father's
day. I have a few that I pulled out to make prints
for her for this weekend.
But, as I was driving home yesterday evening, the colors of
the sunset were particularly golden from
the residual "June Gloom" in the air.
So I stopped by the courthouse and got a few nice images
of which, this one is my favorite. It is a different
angle on a highly recognizable building, and I
will be interested to find out how many
people realized it even had an exposed bell!
