For this Weekly Photo Challenge, Door, I chose a favorite door photo, taken at the Brewery in Downtown Los Angeles. The doors that lead to nowhere but a drop off two and three flights down. Even knowing this building had been a beer brewery back in the day (the building now houses artist lofts and […]

Photo taken along one of Southern California’s beautiful, sandy beaches. Quintessential summertime. ~SueBee

Newport Beach Pier at sunset is the setting for our Daily Foto Fix. I blurred the edges a bit, after testing out various effects. I rather like the result, do you? ~SueBee

A broken-open, dry seed pod I found interesting, along the path while hiking at Santiago Oaks Regional Park in Orange, ~SueBee

Our entry into this week’s Photo Challenge, Roy G. Biv, was taken at Olvera Street in downtown Los Angeles. While I’d never before heard of the Roy G. Biv expression, the rainbow is what we’re presenting with these colorful costumes worn by lovely dancers. ~SueBee

Daily Foto Fix of stepping stones over a small creek was taken at Santiago Oaks Regional Park, here in Southern California. Note to our followers who may have noticed the diminished number of posts and photos recently… all due to “life gets in the way” syndrome. My elderly mom (97, nearing 98) has had some […]

This Daily Foto Fix was taken at Santiago Oaks Regional Park in Orange during a late afternoon hike recently, and as with several other photos I’ve taken, reminds me to my favorite poem by Robert Frost, The Road Not Taken. ~SueBee “…Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled […]

This dried seedpod, covered in sharp thorns, is ready to launch a seed on feathered wings. I took this shot during a recent walk at Santiago Oaks Regional Park in northern Orange County, Southern California. ~SueBee

Our Daily Foto Fix is a pink wildflower spotted in Santiago Oaks Regional Park in Orange County. ~SueBee

For this week’s Photo Challenge, Vivid, a photo from Corona Del Mar in Southern California, featuring vivid blue sky and water, with a few vivid red flowers tossed in for good measure!~SueBee

During stressful times, the remedy I often seek is a quick visit to the shore. When that’s not possible, gazing at a photo is the next best thing. This beautiful outlook onto the Pacific Ocean is from the end of Poppy Street in Corona Del Mar. Happy Wednesday, halfway to the weekend! ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix features a bit of gravity-defying magic demonstrated by two young gals on the beach at Oceanside, as they took a break from an international soccer tournament. The gal dressed in pink impressed me with her very cool, controlled skill! I’m sure I never looked that calm while hula-hooping. 😉 ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix was taken at the Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens recently. ~SueBee

This week’s Photo Challenge, On the Way, (“Share a shot of something you saw, did, or experienced on the way: a photo not of your destination, but of an interesting thing along the way”), features signs along the road as I drove to the mile-high town of Oak Glen in Southern California. These signs are reminiscent […]

This week’s Photo Challenge, Broken, immediately brought to mind a glass pitcher my mom’s had in her antique china cabinet for over 50 years. It fascinated me as a young girl and continues to do so. I remember asking mom “how could they staple glass?”. I still don’t have an answer to that question! ~SueBee

I often find scenes that amuse me during my photography outings, this one taken at Corona Del Mar being one of them. The “Creature from the Black Lagoon” (reference to a 1954 very low-budget Action/Adventure film), has come ashore, and people on the beach haven’t even noticed! The dog doesn’t seem to sense the danger either! […]

Today’s Foto Fix reminder for some of us this weekend… it’s time to mow the lawn! Photo taken along the promenade, cliff side above the sea, at Corona Del Mar. ~SueBee

This scene at Corona Del Mar had me laughing. All the spikes and gadgets to keep pigeons off the roof of this very expensive, seaside home, and yet…. ! 😀 ~SueBee

I’ve decided on a second entry into this week’s Photo Challenge, Enveloped. This photo is a play on the word envelope, within enveloped. In my view, this brown pelican has folded himself as an envelope, ready to be mailed to his next destination. I took this photo while walking on the pier at Oceanside this […]
