Just Another Day At The Beach

I live less than 5 miles from the Pacific Ocean, yet I rarely take advantage of the majestry of breaking waves, soaring birds, and leaving my footprints in the sand. I decided to change the trend and talk a walk! Come along to see what I found as 2015 comes to an end. It was early…

Me and My Camera…Part 1

What is the slogan, Carpe Diem?  Sometimes I have to just seize the opportunity to take my camera for a walk! These photos are taken in Playa Del Rey, a beach town neighbor of mine.  Along the Fisherman’s village, you’ll see plenty of boats ready to go fishing, people standing on the dock hoping to…

What’s New?

Sometimes the best medicine for a stressful day is just grabing the camera and heading outdoors! Fortunately for me, I don’t have to go very far to find something interesting that catches my eye!

This is the Venice Pier, originally constructed in 1905, but a severe winter storm…

The Grammy Museum

One of the benefits of living in a big city is the entertainment possibilities.  Yesterday was one of those days, when despite the traffic, I joined some friends in downtown Los Angeles, known by some as DTLA. Not WeHo, West Hollywood, or SoHo, in New York or You Ho, oh never mind. This day was…

Malibu, it’s Not Just a Beach

Having family visit from back east is a great opportunity to once again, be a tourist, this time in a city not far from my home.  Malibu Beach is just up the road about 45 minutes, depending on the traffic. Malibu, known for its pristine beaches and surfers is also home to the rich and famous,…
