Tourists get a nice surprise hello from a local at the Venice Beach Skatepark.  Despite being scared a couple managed to get their cell phones up for a “high quality” pic, at least I didn’t see an iPad photographer.

Disneyland For Adults

Emilio

mirage-5There was a time that Las Vegas was called “Disneyland For Adults”. Now it is merely “Sin City”. Either name is an insult! An insult to Walt Disney, an insult to sin!

Please stop by my personal site Photos By Emilio and say hello when you have a minute!

Mother’s Perfect Love

Mother’s Day may have come and gone, but there is always reason to acknowledge the mothers in our lives.  This image was one of a few I shot last week at my studio, using natural light.  I wrote a poem to accompany this and another image in honor of mother’s day.  You can see more at my personal blog: Robyn Graham Photography.

I’d love to hear your thoughts if you have a chance to comment!

Pirate On My Pack

Black And White Photography, David, Photography

20150506-untitled shoot

It my seem like a childish thing to have on my backpack. However he has hung there for many years now . The pack he hangs around on is the pack I use on my bike commute most mornings in the summer and a few in the winter. My other passion besides family, and photography is cycling. I purchased this little chap at Legoland many years ago as a reminder of my favourite cyclist Marco Pantani. Who sadly is no longer with us.

I took this shot in window light using my Hipstamatic app on my iPhone.
