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

Today being Friday, my favorite day of the workweek, I decided to drive directly to the beach from work, rather than going home. I had my camera along and thoroughly enjoyed myself walking along the beach at Crystal Cove State Park, in Southern California. The weather was spectacular! ~SueBee

I took this picture near Encinitas and didn’t notice the seagull until I was back home, reviewing my pics. The two little girls in matching blue robes is what had caught my eye. ~SueBee

I took a harbor cruise of Long Beach and Los Angeles Harbors this past Saturday with a dear friend of mine. The cruise was fantastic and we thoroughly enjoyed seeing the harbor from the water’s side. While I sort through dozens of photos and pull together a few blog posts, I thought I’d use this picture […]

Today’s Foto Fix of a surfer just breaking through a wave was taken off Carlsbad in Southern California. ~SueBee

Rugged beauty and solitude describe the scene along California’s coast north of Cambria. The area is another favorite of mine. ~SueBee

A Friday Foto Fix of the gorgeous central California coast near Santa Cruz. ~SueBee

The Foto Fix I’ve chosen for today was taken up California’s central coast, near Santa Cruz, during a trip I made up there in 2013. It features a really cool pirate ship kite being flown by the little boy’s daddy. It appeared to be a rather tricky kite to fly. ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix is of Avalon Harbor on Catalina Island. Kat and I rented a golf cart and toured Avalon while visiting there on my birthday this past July. We had so much fun, and of course, the views were fabulous! ~SueBee

This week’s Photo Challenge from WordPress is Fun! I’m entering with two photos of Kat and me having lots of fun kayaking the Pacific Ocean, off the city of Avalon on Catalina Island, on my 63rd birthday in July. We rented a double kayak and rode the swells up and down the coast. Now, that was […]

Today’s Foto Fix is one I took of my oldest daughter, Angelika, taking a picture from the Redondo Beach Pier during our recent mini vacation. ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix was taken at San Simeon last year, during my vacation up California’s central coast. San Simeon is well-known as the home of Hearst Castle, a gorgeous estate high on the hill above the coast. This photo always seemed magical to me, and brings reminisces of stories mom and dad shared about the sailboat […]

The expression on their faces, and their interaction after this picture was taken, reminded me of the famous comedy duo. This picture was taken on one of Southern California’s piers. ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix was taken near Carlsbad in Southern California, south of where I live in Orange. I was pleased to capture all seven birds as they sailed by in formation. ~SueBee
