Sunset Over a Vineyard in Santa Ynez Valley, CA

This was actually a test shot while scouting a location in the wine country of Santa Barbara county. Yesterday we drove through Santa Ynez Valley, past every vineyard and interesting ranch we could find. This was early in the search, but so far it is the front runner. I'll be spending some more time comsing up with a few other options but I'm pretty happy with the results so far.

Bench and cross in front of the Church of the Wayfarer, Carmel by the Sea, CA

This is a beautiful little church that we always stop at when we are in Carmel. This was the first time we noticed the cool lamp though. We are normally there during the day.

The Barnyard shopping center decorated for Christmas, Carmel, CA

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

This is a beautiful little shopping center in Carmel, called The Barnyard. After dinner at our favorite restaurant in Carmel we spent the evening wandering around and checking out Christmas lights. On the right is a great place called Succulent Gardens. If you wander around my sites for a while you'll see why a place like that is a real magnet for me. In fact a few of our Epis even came from there. On the left is a great little candy shop. (Try the grasshopper bark and the caramel cashew turtles if you stop there!)

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!

Magnolia blossom just about to open

We found this little tree just before sunset. It was perfect timing.

Backlit grape leaf at a nursery in Santa Barbara

I like the details in nature. The pattern of the veins in the leaves on this grape vine really caught my attention. But I had to find just the right leaf to get an angle with the sun behind it so you could truly appreciate the structure.

Sunset at Butterfly Beach, Santa Barbara, California

Last week we took a walk on Butterfly Beach right before sunset. The birds were having fun in the surf staying just ahead of us. But when the sun was just about to disappear, they decided it was time to stop playing with us and find a good spot for the night.

Monarch Butterfly [Danaus plexippus]

I have always really loved the background in this image. In sepia it makes it look even more like a studio shot with a backdrop in the background. But it is actually just a very low aperture shot to make the other plants in the distance appear totally out of focus so you can concentrate on the beauty in the foreground.

Chinese Lantern

One of my favorite shots from a trip to a local nursury last week. The sun was just right on the shaded area where this guy lives.

Sweetgum [Liquidamber styraciflua] Bonsai Tree

I love the roots on this Bonsai tree. I had a lot of fun with a bunch of different angles, but this is my favorite. In fact it is the image that inspired this site. When I first took the image I thought it looked almost sepia as it was. But I knew I wanted to do more with it. It took a year to get back around to it, but finally I took the time to set things up.

You can also see the original image at my main photoblog.
