This gallery is just a chance to show off some of my favorite pictures.
I like this shot because I've always been interested in ways of taking
low light pictures. This one is easy. 400 speed film, camera on a tripod
and using a ten-second timer. It was taken during VBS at my church (Evangelical
Free Church of Yorba Linda). I love this week and I love kids.
This picture was taken during Beach Night 1997 for my college group.
It was maybe 15 minutes after sundown and the day was slightly overcast.
The exposures were about 2 seconds long. I found that I had a tendency
to shake the camera (even on a tripod) when I pulled the trigger. I searched
hours before going to the beach to see if there was a trigger cable for
the Nikon N-50. There wasn't…so I was scrambling to figure out how to
pull the shot off. The answer was so simple, I used the camera's timer
to fire the camera. As you can see it worked beautifully. I took about
12 shots, some had people walking through the picture.
This one was taken on my annual trek to Monterey. I was visiting the
sea aquarium and on the way from the parking lot, I passed this lot. I
really loved the patters that the pylons and fence made.
As you can guess, taken during the Fourth of July. I took 75 pictures
during the entire show. I think this was the best shot of them all.
 
This series is of my roommate Drew and his sister Ginny. Ginny was staying
at a really nice hotel in Huntington Beach. Drew and I went to visit and
I took the opportunity to take some really nice pictures. In fact the
first two pictures I enlarged and gave them for Christmas and their birthdays.
San Francisco
These photos were taken
on a seminar I attended in San Francisco. The ceiling shot was taken at
Norstroms. I climbed all 12 stories and got this beauty. The Chinatown
shots were taken near my grandparent's home.
Las Vegas
These Vegas shots
were taken at Ceaser's Empire (except the Bally's picture). This was a
great place. I love the vibrant colors. I used Kodak Gold MAX. I love
this film. |
