Weekly Photo Challenge: Texture
Cotton Candy, aka Fairy Floss, is in the making at the Orange County Fair, and represents our entry into this week’s photo challenge, Texture. This photo offers up various textures, from the sugar granules scattered alongside the machine, to the soft, light, airy, fluffy stuff being spun to perfection. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee) This week, share a texture found in an unexpected place.

People Watching at the County Fair
Yesterday after work was my turn to visit the Orange County Fair, my first time at this particular county fair. Lined up with countless other cars, and directed to parking in what I’m sure was the next county, I enjoyed a pleasant hike before arriving at the ticket booth. I still had some time to kill before my […]
Happy Hump Day!
Happy Hump Day! Captured a pic these two camels while wandering through the Santa Ana Zoo. Great place! ~SueBee (pic by SueBee)
Day at the Fair
It’s been several years since I’ve been to the summer fair, so I was really excited to find out from a friend that she’d received free tickets to go this year! The Orange County fair, with all the delicious fried food, colorful rides and carnival games, and exhibits, was so much fun! My boyfriend Cam […]
Focusing Through a Cage…
…or, Learn Something New Each Day… or, Did He Teach That in Class? Those are a selection of titles appropriate for this article. I visited a small, local zoo recently, the Santa Ana Zoo; my first ever visit there. Kat had been earlier this year and shared some of her shots in an article titled Monkeying Around. While the zoo has a […]
Sightseeing Catalina
This final installment of my visit to Catalina Island features photos I took while wandering around Avalon, the main town. I walked from one end of the main drag to the other, and even covered some of the nearby residential area. It was a hot day, but I still managed to put many miles on […]
Catalina’s Wrigley Memorial and Botanical Gardens
During my recent visit to Catalina Island, I took a little red trolley car (the Avalon city bus) and rode it through town and up the hill to the Botanical Gardens. I had no idea until I reached the top, walking an uphill, dirt roadway on a very hot day, that I was at the place where […]
Reflections
While wandering through the City of Brea mall, I noticed they put in a new water feature. It was so cool looking, especially with the unusual shaped glass ceiling above it reflecting into all of the silver balls at the same time. ~Kat (pic by Kat)
Art of Shoes
The City of Brea mall is one of the nicest malls I’ve ever been to! While there, I visited the Nordstrom shoe section to find any unusual shoes to take pictures of. Designer shoes have always fascinated me…intricate designs, very unusual looking heels…a perfect picture subject 🙂 ~Kat (pics by Kat)
Lines and Textures
Hi everyone! Sorry I haven’t posted in a while! Work’s been keeping me very busy! I’m very happy to be taking pics and posting again! So, after work a couple days ago, I decided to challenge myself to find unusual textures or patterns to take pictures of in everyday places. I went to the City […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Summer Lovin’
Teens lovin’ that summer is a comin’… Rejoicing in the sunset of school work, the sunrise of carefree beach days, joy spreading as colors in the sky. ~SueBee Living in a land of nearly eternal summer, Southern California, I took a twist on this week’s theme and jumped outside of myself to include the Summer Lovin’ exuberance of these […]
Beach Atmosphere
A few photos of beach atmosphere from my visit to Crystal Cove in Orange County a week or so ago. Happy Friday! Enjoy your day. ~SueBee (photos by SueBee)
The Music Room

Catalina’s Famous Casino
(24 Photos) I took a walking tour of the famous Catalina Casino, designed in the Art Deco and Mediterranean Revival styles at a cost of two million dollars, and opened May 29, 1929. The building featured the first movie theater designed for pictures with sound, “talkies”, and the world’s largest circular dance floor. The Casino gets its name […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Containers
My entry for this week’s photo challenge is that of three containers, one within the next. First, the little mussel shell, a container itself, contained within a sea anemone, which is contained within a tide pool at Crystal Cove Beach in Orange County. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)“For this Week’s Photo Challenge, show us something that contains something else. Share your own […]
Things To Do in Catalina
(20 photos) Catalina, the land of fun! I realized once I looked through my photos that I’d captured a grouping of Things To Do without realizing it. Hence this separate article. It’s pretty amazing that within a few short blocks in Avalon, a person could scuba dive, snorkel, paddle board, kayak, fish, swim, parasail, take a jeep tour, ride […]
26 Miles to Catalina
(15 photos) I spent a most pleasant vacation day off work yesterday visiting Avalon, the biggest city (2012 population 3,765) on Catalina Island, having decided to extend the celebration of my upcoming birthday beyond the actual day. Last week, I’d made a reservation on the Catalina Flyer, a large capacity catamaran, out of Newport Beach. I felt lucky as only five spots were left […]
Do You Photo Contest?
I joined a Photography Club a few months back and decided to participate in their photo contest, with a judge coming to the meeting to critique as each photo is anonymously displayed on a big screen, while club members sit quietly in the audience. As the first few photos were displayed at tonight’s meeting, and I noticed the judge’s main comments consisted of how to improve […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Relic
My dear, sweet mom. Born September 20, 1917, middle child with seven brothers bookending her. Gazing through the window, gazing through time. Lost in her memories. Where have the years gone? The typewriter. So familiar… Just like the one she used at her job in downtown Los Angeles. She rode the streetcar to get there. And wonders where is the […]
