Sleeper

I turned up the saturation on this shot, but I quite like the effect. Any comments would be welcome.

Skater 2

Another trip to the skate park - getting a decent shot seems to be almost as difficult as sticking a move...almost..

Posing

Another shot from Goleta beach. This is the bottom left of wider shot - I just didn't have the right lens on my camera at the time, so this severe crop will have to do.

Windmill

I took this yesterday on the way into work. It makes clunking clinking sounds when it moves and is right next to the playgound on Goleta beach.

Fisherman

This fisherman on the Goleta beach pier was kind enough to show me his first catch of the evening.

$3,650

I took this last weekend with a pinhole fitted to my Nikon. 

Wet bark

Another wet tree in the woods on Figueroa Mountain

Mount Figueroa Road

It was raining all day today. I drove up Mount Figueroa Road in search of some views but the mist was so thick there really weren't any. These trees were very colourful though.

Wig shop

I couldn't resist going back here with my new tripod and try to get some sharper shots.

Channel panorama

The weather this morning was blustery and overcast. This glimpse of sunlight over the Santa Barbara channel was quite dramatic but I couldn't get the whole scene in with my 50mm lens...hence the bad joins. Best viewed at the larger size!

Flowers (pinole)

I fitted a pinhole to the body of my camera today. The hole isn't great but it's quite nice to be able to check the exposure time without having to go home and develop the print (like I used to do with my carboard pinhole cameras). I shall try and make a better hole over the weekend I think and then maybe the shots will be a bit cleaner...although that's not really the point!

Skater

This isn't quite what I wanted...I'll be back to the skate park soon!

Surf sequence 2

Here's another few shots from Montano de Oro last weekend. It was a very cool place!

Surf sequence

This guy seemed to know what he was doing (at Montano de Oro).

California Poppies

I went to Montano de Oro State Park today. Got some shots of surfers ripping up the waves, as well as some surferless waves ripping into the coastline. I may post some of those pics next week. These poppies were my best snap of the day though.
