Courthouse Palms

Last Thursday looked like it was going to end with a beautiful sunset. So, I went to the courthouse to get some shots of the city from the tower (it is one of the tallest buildings in Santa Barbara, since there is a limit of about three stories these days).

However, after realizing I had loaded the film incorrectly in my camera loosing all of the shots from the tower (no great loss, the clouds were too heavy at the horizon to make a very good show). I wandered around the grounds as the light was fading and got the best pictures of the day.

Sunset Tree

We have been having some amazing weather in Southern California this season. (I know, we're not alone!) But it makes for some beautiful sunsets. This is another of my experimentations with my new fish eye lens from eBay!

State Street Christmas

Just before Christmas I took a walk down State street with my new toy, a fish eye lens (courtesy of eBay). For several years I have wanted to take some shots of the Christmas decorations on State street, this is one of my first.
