Boards are lined up at Avalon on Catalina Island, ready for you to grab one, head out to the harbor and enjoy the day! ~SueBee

Assigned the position of lookout, this little ground squirrel was spotted on the bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean just south of Carlsbad. ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix was taken along the promenade at Catalina Island as I walked from Descanso Beach Club toward the famous Casino building. ~SueBee

This week’s Photo Challenge is Rise/Set… we’re asked to showcase sunrise or sunset. I chose two sunsets, both taken in Southern California, featuring silhouettes. The beach picture was taken near Newport Beach Pier. The city skyline was taken from the parking structure rooftop at The Grove, a beautiful, outdoors shopping center on the west side […]

The giant Pacific Ocean and it’s that crowded in one particular spot near Newport Beach, California. ~SueBee

My entry into this week’s Photo Challenge of a Favorite Place is a picture I took at Southern California’s Corona Del Mar beach. It truly is a favorite place. When my mom passed away nearly two years ago, her ashes were scattered at sea, as per her wishes, joining my dad. That same day, my […]

For this week’s photo challenge on the word Silence , I chose this picture of my oldest daughter, Angelika. I took it at the most quiet place I’ve ever been… on California’s coast north of Santa Cruz. The road was far away, the ocean waves were quieted by the cliffs, there wasn’t a sound, just silence. […]

Corona del Mar in Southern California is the setting for my entry into the Weekly Photo Challenge: Serene. I took this photo just a week or two ago after a lovely drive down the coast after work one evening. That was a serene end to the day! ~SueBee

This picture was taken last Friday after work as I wandered along the shoreline at Corona del Mar. The setting sun catching on the tiny river of water running into the ocean caught my eye. With a bit of editing, I think the picture nearly looks like a painting. ~SueBee

This picture was taken on the Avila Beach Pier as I made my way up the coast to Solvang during my recent mini vacation. Back to work we go… Happy Monday. ~SueBee

My entry into this week’s Word Press Photo Challenge on the word Temporary, was so temporary I nearly didn’t get the picture! I was north of Ventura, on my way to Solvang, and pulled off the 101 to take a side road right along the shore. Noticing really big birds on the overhead wire, I naturally […]

Today’s Foto Fix was taken from the pier at Avila Beach. ~SueBee

I came across this paddle-boarding bovine while exploring the area near Los Osos and Morro Bay during my recent mini road trip. Happy Monday! ~SueBee

With weather temps predicted in the hot range here in Southern California today, I felt a big of coolness would be welcome. This picture was taken at a favorite spot, the quaint town of Cambria on California’s central coast. ~SueBee

Taking an evening walk along the Seal Beach Pier yesterday, I stopped to watch this fisherman getting his line ready and noticed a boat speeding right toward us. It managed a nice sideways maneuver and unloaded a worker from the oil platform visible in the distance. ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix was taken near Encinitas,in Southern California. ~SueBee

Photo taken at Long Beach as I surveyed the variety of trash washed up since our recent storms. Missing your other high heel, anyone? ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix was taken yesterday along the Long Beach boardwalk. Pay a quarter (I didn’t check, maybe it’s a dollar by now), get a better view… of the container ships waiting to pull in and unload, sailboats enjoying a nice afternoon, little islands dressed up with palms hiding oil rigs pumping non-stop, people walking and […]

I’m entering this week’s photo challenge, Against the Odds, with an action picture that was against all odds for my photography skill level. It’s a picture I took awhile back, but it stuck in mind as perfect for this challenge. I never seem to be ready at just the right moment, but this time I […]

Today’s foto fix was taken looking over the edge of a pier, somewhere along the Southern California coast, and edited just for fun. ~SueBee
