Ocean Beach

Paul and I went to Ocean Beach on our next photo outing. We arrived around 7:00 in the evening. We took many pictures of the pier, the city and the lights. These are some of the favorite ones that I took that evening.

This first one is the entrance to the pier itself. I like the lens flare that I picked up. Not always good photographically - but it is an interesting touch.

















I liked this photo - the siloutte look of the fisherman - yet with the nice colors behind.

















Now - we are getting into some serious long-exposure times.
















Who needs a star filter when you have a tripod? Actually - a friend of mind does have an 8 point star filter - and it is really cool. It would take a photo like this and really make the lights stand out.

Seaport Village

















Paul and I had an outing at Seaport Village. This is one of my more favorite photos that I took this past summer. I like the way I was able to capture some of the colors in the sky, as well as the nice detail in the water.

























This is of the Hyatt in Downtown San Diego. I found it interesting that the sky turned this brown.

Swim Meet

Once again - it was swim meet time. I think that I went to two different swim meets in 2 different weekends. My photos show that I took a lot of similar type pictures. Anyway - Caleb is doing fantastic with his swimming. He has been practicing for 1 1/2 hours Monday - Friday and he still seems to enjoy it.
