The bright midday light beating down on the blacktop and motorcycle made for a contrasty shot that only required a few tweaks to turn into an HDR-like image.

The Naked Ladies (amaryllis beladona) are in full bloom in Sonoma County. I took these shots of the fragrant pink beauties that were situated along a stone wall adjacent to the Julia Morgan house in my last post.
Lens: Canon EF 24-105 f/4L.

I don’t often take photos of houses, but occasionally I’ll get a wild hair and go for a walk in a residential area with a camera. This lovely house, just a block outside of downtown Petaluma, was designed by famous California architect, Julia Morgan.

Here’s an abstract image of one of the grain factories in town. I cropped the original shot to a 4:3 aspect ratio and desaturated the color about 70%. Why not?

I’m currently on day 5 of a 15 day “green” juice “Reboot” –that means I’m only consuming raw fruit and veggie concoctions made in our Hurom juicer or, occasionally, blended in our Vita-Mix blender. Why? Because I’m crazy, and I like a challenge. My goal is to shed 25 lbs and get my body back into “fighting” shape. So far so good, but I am having a hard time motivating myself to get out and shoot. I’m hoping that will change in the next few days. In the meantime, here’s one of the first shots I took with my 70-300mm mounted on the 5D Mark III.
Lens: Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM at 300mm. 1/250 at f/5.6, ISO 100.
