La Jolla Cove

f/22 – 1/13 – ISO 200 – 50mm – Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi – Cropped

I had to crop out the lens flare, but I’m posting this because I loved the colors. I went to the cove to test out my polarizing filter and ended up seeing an awesome sunset.

La Jolla Cove

f/22 – 25 – ISO 100 – 50mm – Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi – Monochrome

Tried to go for a long exposure after sunset. I was playing around with my polarizing filter… got some very vividly colorful shots, but major lens flare, which I haven’t decided whether I liked or not.

Just messing around in the San Diego Zoo as it was closing. Surprised no one tried to kick us out. The park was pretty much empty.

New Year’s Resolutions & Chubby Birds

Good-bye to 2008… it’s been a rough year, and hello to 2009! I can’t wait for a fresh start and I can’t wait to see what 2009 brings. Resolutions-wise, I want to work “normal” hours… meaning average < 50 hours a week at work, rather than the 50-60 that I’ve been doing the past 2 years. With the extra “free-time” I want to shoot more photos, learn more about photography, and hone my craft and style. I also want to meet new people who challenge me creatively and can appreciate what goes into making a website look awesome & function well (shout-out to Clement, whom I definitely miss having around). I want to bring Habitat back into my life – I’ve been feeling empty without it. My last resolution: hit the gym more often and get back into shape (isn’t this on everyone’s list? :P).

Here’s to a new year and a fresh start! :D
