Rare Cool Summer Weekend at the Cabin

Rare Cool Summer Weekend at the Cabin Usually trips to the cabin in the middle of summer are not in the cards due to high temps, 90s -100, but Lisa and I had our eye on the forecast as it was for high 70s and 60s at night. Perfect! We had to get creative to get by the typical holiday traffic jam through the Santa Barbara corridor which actually made the drive enjoyable. We were happy to see an out […]

Milky Way from Ormond Beach

Milky Way from Ormond Beach Feeling a little like a zombie right now. It was a late night last night for a school night, but the opportunity to shoot the Milky Way was too good to ignore.  I joined follow photog, Ormond Beach expert and guide, Carla Cahill. While not the pure darkness that we get on Figueroa Mountain on a moonless night, it was still a great chance as there was no marine layer and after the moon set around 10:30, the only […]

Ventura Point Sunset

Ventura Point Sunset Needing to smell the sea breeze and clear my head from many concentrated hours at the computer I headed to Ventura Point beach with camera and tripod to see what could be captured. No June gloom for a change with just a few clouds. The light was exquisite and the time spent in this spot brought my awareness back to simplicity. This is a series of six photographs that include some long exposures utilizing various ND filters.  Please […]

Marine Layer Over the Valley

Marine Layer Over the Valley I’ve spent the last couple of weekends at our cabin on Figueroa Mountain replacing some windows. This past weekend a condition started to develop that I haven’t seen for a while where the marine layer blew in covering the Santa Ynez valley but the ceiling of the layer remained below the level of the cabin. With the presence of the full moon I was hoping for an opportunity to photograph the moonlit clouds from above. […]

Visit to the Beach

Visit to the Beach After a very busy week, I looked forward to the long weekend and a chance for some photography. I did manage to complete a small photo shoot for a recently completed custom kitchen remodel last week so I did get my hands on the camera. Not quite the same though as getting outside and feeling the immersion. The perceived problem though, was our weather here at this time of year, May grey, June gloom, constant marine layer. […]

Gorgeous Light on the Mountain

Gorgeous Light on the Mountain Spent last Friday and Saturday with James at the cabin with Lisa joining us Saturday midday. It was windy and kinda cold at times dropping into the 30s at night. Though the flowers are done for the most part, the scenery and lighting were exquisite as always. There are a few photos where I used a nuetral density filter to be able to slow the shutter speed down in order to capture the effect of the […]

Sunrise at Silver Strand Beach
