Hot Rods, Pomona, CA

There was a cruise just this last week in historic Pomona, CA. The fairgrounds and drag strip have always brought some great auto events to this area. My favorites are some of these old Fords.

Chiriaco Summit

Chiriaco Summit sunset. The sun was setting fast and I was able to snap a few photos. I hope to try turning some of these into HDR images. These haven't been processed yet. There weren't a lot of clouds in the sky but it was still quite nice.

Summer stuff

These are a few images taken this August. Some from the pool.
I occasionally take pictures of flowers and other foliage although I am not too sure about proper composition. When I saw this little flower on our recent camping trip, front and center seemed appropriate.

Long Valley, AZ

Here is a shot while we were walking through the area surrounding our campsite. You can see Max running through the grass.

Sunday Morn

Here are a few images I captured today before going to church. Straight out of the camera, no editing other than rotation.

Thoricthys part 2

I changed some of my lighting for this aquarium as well as some hardscaping and I am very happy with the way it looks. The glass is scratched, not much I can do about that. The Firemouth is coloring up nicely, he is a lone man in the tank, unless you count Mr. Crabby, the shrimp. I got more quality photos this session than previously, I'm stoked. All of these images are straight out of the camera, no editing.
Both of them like to hide out behind the wood under the heater.
I really liked the amount of detail in these two shots.

This is how I usually find him. Peeking out to see if anyone is coming to eat him. I also like this shot because the colors are very true to life.
His "firemouth" is really maturing now.
Full body shot. I'm not sure where the tear in his tail fin came from, probably in his lightning quick escape into his hole when someone came into the room.

So Cal

I had the chance to go back to my hometown and do a little vet work this last weekend. It was a super fast trip but we got to see a few minutes of a bike race while there. As usual all of these images are straight out of the camera. Thats how I roll the fat ones.
