Day 575 Old Work Boots


I've been wanting to photograph these old work boots for over a year now. I remember during one of my junior college photography courses the instructor showing a beautiful picture of ballet slippers. He told us how the photographer used new slippers but wore them out a bit to make them look well worn. That way they looked used but still retained some of their shine. I didn't do anything to the boots, they are well worn, but they do have new laces!

Day 570 Coffee Kiosk


My favorite place for a cup of coffee and an almond scone. I've photographed it before but have always gotten a better picture, well today I did not get a better picture. So here you go, my favorite coffee kiosk in this mornings fog.

Day 568 Grapevine


It was a long six hour drive today back home and I didn't feel like taking any pictures. I did manage to pull over a take a few frames out the passenger side window.

Day 567 Kylie and Alicia


My nieces Kylie and Alicia kept me company while I took care of my mom. Two very cute girls. So cute in fact I can never tell which is which.

Day 566 Stray people at the Beach



I managed to get a quick shot of this girl as she passed me by. She had just gotten off the bus. Then I sat down and photographed people riding their bikes. I was going to dump all the bike shots as I really like the girl picture, but this man's face is priceless.

Day 565 Birds at the Beach


I was able to take another walk to the beach this day. Not a lot of activity but a gorgeous day.

Day 564 Overcast at the Beach


Today my only chance for pictures was a quick walk to the beach. Unfortunately it was an ugly day with no people milling about. I felt like I owned the beach.

Day 563 Beau


The last time I was down there I took a picture of my mom's dog Charlie by the window. This time I photographed her other dog Beau by the same window.
