In this pic, I’m capturing the reflection of the pink oldie car, in the window of another oldie car. The people are sitting on the other side of the car with the pink car reflection. Yeah, just a tad bit of a brain-twister…but a fun picture to capture! I explored the City of Orange Old […]

Today’s Daily Foto Fix was taken this weekend at the Brewery during their wonderful Artwalk. The whimsical area featured is just outside the front door of an artist’s loft/studio. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

Today’s Foto Fix is of a photography lesson in progress, the teacher sharing important information on framing the photo, shot across the pond at Descanso Gardens in La Canada Flintridge. I flipped the image to give a more interesting perspective. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

Today’s Foto Fix was taken at the top of Santa Monica pier. The colors remind me of dyed Easter eggs. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

Today’s Foto Fix is of Kat at a vintage car show in the city of Orange yesterday. I dare not write anything remotely comparing her hair color to the car on the right, but when I saw her bending down to get a shot of the orange reflecting on the black, and then noticed her […]

Bunches of brilliant orange ranunculus, freshly clipped from the fields, wrapped in cellophane, and ready for the sales booth are the feature of today’s Foto Fix. This shot was captured at The Flower Fields in Carlsbad this past Saturday. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

Springtime photography outing at the Arboretum…love the fuscia and green contrasting colors 🙂 ~Kat (pic by Kat)

Photography in public gardens brings out every size and form of camera equipment. I was fascinated watching this girl focus on the nearby rose with her mighty zoom lens. I wish I could see the end result! Today’s Foto Fix was taken at Descanso Gardens in La Canada Flintridge during the Cherry Blossom Festival a week ago. […]

I drove to Descanso Gardens in La Canada Flintridge for the Cherry Blossom Festival last Sunday, after visiting Travel Town in Griffith Park (article 1, article 2). In all my years of Descanso visits (more than I can recall, having grown up in nearby La Crescenta), I’d never seen so many people waiting to get […]

An excursion to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park near Escondido provides the subject of today’s Foto Fix. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

Today’s Foto Fix is a trio taken in an industrial section along the east side of downtown Los Angeles. Feel like you’re being watched?! ~SueBee (photos by SueBee)  

Cargo shipping out to sea… and I wonder what’s in those containers, and where they’ll end up. Some years ago, my family and I packed up all our household belongings into a container just like one of these, and watched the truck pick it up and drive away. We hoped that six weeks later our […]

I probably should have posted this for dinnertime… fish anyone?! Today’s Foto Fix, perched high atop a pole with meal firmly gripped in talon, was taken at San Joaquin Wildlife Sanctuary in Irvine. Additional photos and article coming soon. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

Lovely Iceland Poppies growing along a walkway in Anaheim are the backdrop of today’s Foto Fix, while the tiny little gnat is the subject matter. I played with settings on the Nikon and had the worst time getting a clear picture, whether due to bright colors or bright sunlight, I’m not sure. Being able to […]

Today’s Foto Fix was taken in an Old Towne Orange back alley. Notice the heart graffiti on the right… looks like Cupid’s left his mark! ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

Oftentimes it’s the smallest of details making the difference between a picture with no story and one with. I’ve noticed since really jumping into photography with both feet, and particularly since having this blog, I seek out the scenes that make a story. They abound, and yet many walk on by without noticing. I’m thankful […]

XO set to music, such a common theme. Reflections in the window things aren’t what they seem. This Foto Fix was taken at a store window at SoCo in Costa Mesa. Reflections intrigue me. While shadows seem firmly anchored, reflections are much more whimsical… this one triggering a childhood memory of our family home, an […]

Tire tracks scribbled upon the beach, softly fading to golden mist. Autographs penned for the seagulls, and sealed with the ocean’s kiss. Today’s Foto Fix was taken at Crystal Cove State Park in southern Orange County. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

I love art museums, especially when they highlight contemporary art. This colorful pic of an orange table in front of a painting was taken at the Palm Springs Art Museum. What a fun place…spent hours there! Can’t wait to re-visit! 🙂 ~Kat (pic by Kat)

Driving around the hills of Brea, in northern Orange County, you’ll find countless old, rusty pumps still going strong. The city of Brea, meaning “tar” in Spanish, was apparently quite the oil town. Founded in 1917, the city grew up as a place for the oil workers to live. The hills around Brea are still dotted […]
