While I generally prefer not re-posting photos already on our site, this photo fit the theme so well, I simply had to use it! It’s from a September, 2013 Foto Fix called Seagull Bomb. I had been standing on the Santa Monica Pier, taking pictures of surfers, and didn’t realize this seagull had photo-bombed my shot […]

Today’s Foto Fix brought to mind William Shakespeare’s words in Romeo and Juliet: “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet”. This particular rose, one of many gorgeous blooms, was captured at Sherman Library and Gardens in Corona del Mar recently. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

Today’s Foto Fix features three fuzzy, wuzzy goslings marching from the pond to the lawn at Los Angeles County Arboretum in Arcadia. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

It’s not uncommon to see film crews around Southern California, but it’s always extra fun to see them in action! The photos in this gallery were taken in downtown Los Angeles recently. I’m always amazed at the large amount of equipment and people required for shooting an individual scene. And, who knows if all that work […]

Disney Concert Hall in downtown Los Angeles is today’s Foto Fix subject. Taken in the late afternoon with my camera set on dark tones, this amazing display of architecture took on an even more splendid appearance. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee) To our followers: sorry to be absent for the past days. Kat and I moved again, after just three […]

No, this photo wasn’t rotated. Yes, he’s climbing a rock wall upside down. No, I don’t know how he’s hanging there! Although just after this picture was taken, gravity did finally exert its force beyond this man’s strength and skill. I’m dedicating this photo to Kat who’s just recently taken up this very industrious hobby, […]

  Took this picture at Stanley Ranch in Garden Grove prior to a tour of the Walt Disney Garage Studio. While waiting for the tour to start, I explored and snapped several pictures in a historic barn house. I loved these dried flowers they had hanging from the ceiling. The bright colors with the wood […]

My boyfriend Cam and I visited the San Diego Zoo again recently, and ended up buying an annual membership! What’s awesome about the membership, is we’re given access to both the Zoo and the Safari Park in Escondido anytime, all year round! This time around, we visited specifically to see the Koalas and Pandas that […]

(19 photos) As you may have noticed in Part 1 or Part 2, Oak Glen is a must-visit kind of place during the springtime. Particularly if you’re a Southern California resident who has grown weary of freeway gridlock, tract housing, crowds, and the heat! While the temperature wasn’t really any cooler than at home, being […]

…eleven additional photos from my springtime visit to beautiful, mile-high Oak Glen, Southern California’s apple-growing paradise! ~SueBee (photos by SueBee) click on any photo to open gallery and view pictures!

My visit to Oak Glen, up the mountainside from Yucaipa in Southern California, this past Monday (a national holiday so I had the day off work), was prompted by a desire to see the area in springtime. I headed directly to my favorite place, the Wildland’s Conservancy nature trails at Los Rios Rancho. I shouldn’t […]

I spontaneously took a drive to Oak Glen, up the mountainside from Yucaipa today. Having been there for the first time last fall when the trees were red and orange, I was curious what springtime would be like. Well, it was gorgeous! Green, lush, baby apples on the trees, birds and insects in abundance. As […]

Today being Memorial Day in the United States, a day to honor our troops from past and present, I chose this photo of “HOPE” taken at the Brewery Artwalk in Los Angeles. Interpretation is personal as well as universal. ~SueBee (photo by SueBee)

Today’s Foto Fix is of two young ladies, part of a group taking prom pictures, surprised by a wave crashing on the rocks at Corona del Mar beach. ~SueBee (photos by SueBee)  

Our entry into this week’s Photo Challenge was taken at the Brewery Artwalk in Los Angeles just a few weeks ago, and is accompanied by a poem: Love’s twist Young woman at dawn, sunshine peeking at the corner, awakening. hazy, lazy. Stretching off slumber, gradually opening her eyes…. Gazing up, seeing her lover, distinctive, twisted locks, […]

Sunday was a busy out ‘n about day for Kat and me. From a classic car show in Fullerton, to a dim sum restaurant for lunch, followed by the Arboretum in Arcadia, and ending up at our favorite North Woods restaurant for their famous salads and cheesy bread, we covered the town. Today’s Foto Fix is […]

(13 photos) If you’re in the mood for colorful flowers and cool ocean breezes, then you need to visit Sherman Library and Gardens in Corona del Mar! It’s the perfect getaway from hectic daily life. I was there this past Saturday, as I mentioned in a previous article, and felt so relaxed upon leaving. Check out their website […]

Today’s Foto Fix was taken Saturday, looking up the beach at one of my favorite spots in Corona del Mar. I first “discovered” this little gem in the mid 1970’s while living on the north side of Los Angeles, near Glendale, and working for a company that had a branch I visited nearby. It was quite […]

Absolutely worn out from the triple digit temperatures and smoke in the air from numerous recent horrible fires in San Diego County, just south of us, I was drawn to the coast yesterday afternoon, and Sherman Library and Gardens in Corona del Mar. It was the perfect decision. I felt the cool ocean breeze as […]

I took a literal interpretation for this week’s photo challenge with a grouping I’m titling Art of Work. I watched these artists demonstrating their craft during the recent Los Angeles Times Book Fair held at USC (University of Southern California). I was both fascinated and envious. I spent many years as a working artist, designing intricate celtic […]
