Mama!

Happy Mother’s Day! This photo shows a wayward baby goat who’d somehow managed to get out of the fenced-in petting zoo at Riley’s Farm in Oak Glen, and was receiving advice from his mother on how to get back in. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

This grouping of photos is titled Kids on the Move, reflecting the joy of childhood, and is our entry into this week’s photo challenge, On the Move. These kids were having a blast pushing each other in their wagon at the Los Angeles County Arboretum in Arcadia while waiting for the Pasadena Pops concert of MGM […]

Abstract Glow

While touring the L.A. Brewery Art Walk for the first time, I came across an exhibit that completely left me in awe. The artist loft was filled with giant glowing creatures made of fiber optics, lightbulbs, fabric, and wire. Was definitely inspiring, and I am very much tempted to try and create something similar. Yay […]

Cooling off at Balboa Island

I made the traffic-free 25 minute drive to Balboa Island late yesterday afternoon; the beach was calling me! I parked at a shopping center on Bayside Drive at Jamboree, and walked over the bridge onto the island. I always find that’s the best solution to the crowds and lack of parking spots on the island […]

Seaside Tracks

It’s been in the 90’s here in Southern California this past week, ridiculously hot for April/May, which prompts me to search for pictures of the ocean. This shot of Calafia Beach, taken in early April, seems perfect for cooling down. It also brought back memories of a favorite song, beautifully performed by Peter, Paul, and […]

Defiant Gull

A simple display of defiance is the subject of today’s Foto Fix, with a seagull demonstrating that keep off spikes attached to the sculpture were not intended for him! That he’s perched on the flying fish adds just a bit of irony as well. This photo was taken on the pier at Santa Monica Beach, near […]

Upswept Braids

Chic, with her upswept braids, print ribbons complimenting the painting on the wall. Its eyes upon her, captivated by her. Furtive glances from the doorway… nearly go unnoticed, art encapsulated. A fleeting moment now dedicated, and elegantly punctuated by the diamond on her ear. ~SueBee Photo captured in a split-second as I was exiting an artist loft at the […]

Eat Here! San Antonio Winery

(11 photos) It seems a dining recommendation is long overdue. While downtown Los Angeles at the Brewery Artwalk this past weekend, Kat and I visited the San Antonio Winery, two streets over from the Brewery. Not only do they offer free wine tastings (I’m certain they’re the ONLY winery still offering that wonderful service), but […]

“Pink Reflection”

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 […]

Brewery Artwalk, day 1

(28 photos) After much anticipation, the springtime Brewery Artwalk in Los Angeles started yesterday. I was joined by my son and two of his friends for a few hours. To start the day, we bought some delicious Korean BBQ tacos (yummmm!) from the Kogi food truck, beers and sangria from the Brewery, and somehow managed to carry […]

Reflecting on Photography Lesson

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)

On Broadway, part 2 (21 photos)

The gallery included here continues the photography walking tour I did recently on Broadway in downtown Los Angeles, as started in part 1. I won’t write anything, rather, I’ll let the photos speak for themselves. I think they tell quite a story. Be sure to click on a photo to open the gallery. Thanks for joining […]

Faux real? (5 photos)

Gathering at the designated meeting point for a recent photography walking tour of Broadway in downtown Los Angeles, we waited for others to arrive. I started scanning the surrounding area, anxious to get started, and noticed window washers high up the side of a building.I was a bit perplexed they were working on a Saturday, so I switched […]

Rooftop Shoot

Scanning the downtown L.A. skyline while standing atop Bunker Hill last Saturday, near the upper landing of Angel’s Flight, the scene below caught my eye. Oh! People on a rooftop with two large white balloons. Interesting…must get a closer look…Ah-ha! It must be a photo shoot. I zoomed in, feeling somewhat like an intruder to an […]
