Beach Sunset

What a beautiful beach sunset i was able to witness for the first time in 2008. I went to the beach to photograph engagement portraits for a couple who is getting married this weekend. At the end of our session, they left and i hung back to steal some shots for myself.
On a different non photo note - new year means LIST time!!! Mike is a huge list freak,
and he has inspired me to make one of my own.
MY Top Ten movies of 2007: and this was tough!
10. Darjeeling Lmtd.
9. Ratatouille
8. Bourne Ultimatum
7. Super Bad
6. 3:10 to Yuma
5. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
4. Knocked Up
3. Grindhouse
2. 300
1. Across the Universe

and of course some honorable mentions - Bee Movie and Juno

Man, that was really tough. All these movies mentioned were GREAT! it was really hard to put them in order!

Flying Pelican

Happy New Years to everybody!! Yesterday I was photographing the pelicans while at the pier. I happened to catch this one flying by. They always seem like they are on their way somewhere, in a hurry, but never really seem to go anywhere.
This is how the image was captured: I haven't cropped into anything. I liked the placement of the pelican against the sky and clouds.

CandyCorn

Sorry its been forever since my last post!! It's hard to get the computer when my hubby needs it full time for his awesome work he's be doing.

Anyway, I shot this plant like thing (amenama er something) at an aquarium I visited while my Dad and step mom, Darci, were in town. This image is full frame, and I really didn't do much to it digitally. Just cleaned it up a bit. It really was that bright of an orange. I like the detail in the image and the colors. So, no, sorry guys - It isn't really Candy Corn. : )
