The Huntington Library and Gardens is a wonderful place to visit.  The gardens are a extensive as they are beautiful.  Cynde and I went one Sunday afternoon, we wandering around the Japanese and Chinese gardens taking many different photos.  It was a very nice afternoon and we took lots of photos.  My only complaint about the Huntington is they close much to early.  I really enjoy the early light and late light neither of which are possible at the gardens.  As I took this photo I was being told by one of the guards telling me to keep moving towards the entrance.

I think the photo was well worth me stopping and being urged to keep moving towards the entrance.

I have been working with a number of older images in my files of late and ran across this image.  To me this image reminds me of the evening I captured it.  In fact his image was one of the last images I took using film many years ago.  This image was captured at Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge and the cranes were fling to their evening roost.  Watching this event each evening while there is a beautiful event.

I hope you enjoyed the image,

Cynde and I visited Travel Town near the LA Zoo a week or so before Father’s day this year.  We had a good time photographing the trains and we created a book with train photos as a gift to my father for Father’s Day.  The project was quite fun and it was nice to share our vision of trains with my dad.  We had a nice cloudy day which gave us some good light to photograph the trains.

I’ll be posting more of images from that day in the future.

For quite some time I have had some interest in learning to paint, but I never had the time or the talent to do so.  These days there are a number of techniques to create digital paintings and this posted image is my first attempt to use a program called Painter.

This photo may look familiar since it was based on one the the photos that come with Windows.

I hope you enjoy it,

This is another photo from a photowalk I took many months ago.  I have visited several different Union station in various cities over the years and I think this is my favorite one to visit.  I really love the art deco architecture of Union Station.  This photo appears in the Schmapp Guide for Los Angeles.

Union Station LA Style

I hope you enjoyed the photo!
