Beach Glass Abstract

If you look close enough at the normal things around you, you'll find an amazing amount of detail and texture. This is a small piece of beach glass I had on my desk. Upon first inspection it looks like a frosty white piece of glass, but getting in close with my macro lens you start to see the chips and shards in the clear glass that make it look frosty from a distance. you can even see the tiny grains of sand that helped make it the beautiful piece of art it is.

Mmm I just love food. And I love photography. So it stands to reason one of my favorite things to take pictures of, would be food. This was at the recent State of the City breakfast held by the Santa Barbara Chamber of Commerce and the City of Santa Barbara at The Fess Parker Doubletree.

Today we went to the 12th Annual Basset Spring Games. The games are a fund raiser for the Basset Hound Rescue of Southern California. We do their newsletter, the Basseteer so we took the opportunity to get some nice photos for the next issue. But really I just wanted to go to play with the hounds!

This is Cooper, he was looking extremely cool just enjoying a nice day in the park. Aside from just being around a bunch of other hounds and the crazy hound people that love them. The dogs and their food slaves could compete in a number of fun competitions including drooling contests, synchronized swimming, kissing contests and Marathon Napping.

It's hard to take a bad picture of a Basset Hound, and I have about 18 gigabytes of photos to prove it. It was a really nice day!

I liked this photo when I took it. But I had no idea what I could possibly do with it. Then, when I was getting ready for a show one evening I started playing in Photoshop. I decided that the space above the bird was perfect for a little creativity. The way he was walking made him seem very determined, but there was just a little something missing. The reflection in the glasses is the palm trees from another one of my cards.

I was actually able to convince many of the kids at various art shows that I had to bribe the seagull with fish to get him to wear the glasses. :-D

Did you hear somethin'?

Did you hear somethin'?

So we thought it would be nice to chill the wine in the freezer a bit.

A couple of hours later I asked, "Did you hear somethin'?"

Either there was not much alcohol in there or it was a really cold freezer!

Well, at least I got some fun images out of it.
