365/24: Bird Shadows

Today’s Daily Shoot assignment : Use hard light that casts sharp distinct shadows in a photograph today.

Not sure this is the best interpretation of the assignment but it's all I have...and yes I know- this wasn't shot today but I gave up that rule last year of having every picture I post being shot on that exact day...too much pressure and not enough quality pictures.... :)

365/16: Blue & Pink Skies

Yes- that is the moon...The skies were so beautiful tonight...I actually really like the phone wires in this shot...Costa Mesa is one of the few places where all the wires are still in the air and not in the ground.

Ha-ha...Zoey all tucked in...she is so spoiled...she doesn't sleep like this- usually she sleeps right up against me- pushing me sideways on the bed...good thing I am short...but I do love the cuddling. Her latest thing is to cuddle on the couch next to me when Rocket won't let her cuddle with him.

365/7: Hanging Out in the Garage

>>>> There is just something about garages...that I have always liked- I think it takes me back to my younger years when we hung out in garages for hours...singing, dancing, drinking,....just last year- my garage became a place that I could "hang out" - and although I haven't sang or danced in there lately- I still really like it out there....and I really love the way this shot turned out.

365/8: Electric Tennis Ball

Everyday, I throw tennis balls on the roof and they roll off for Rocket to catch- easy on his hips and he loves trying to figure out where it will drop....today, it got caught in the electrical wires. It only took me about 20 tries or maybe 30 to hit it again to get it down. Rocket thought that was fun too!

365/6: Breathtaking Back Bay

Today’s Daily Shoot assignment: Go high contrast today and make a photograph with tons of pop. Do as much in-camera as possible.

I know my themes seem to be clouds and skies and dogs! I am obsessed with both of these subjects. One of my favorite things to do is take shots of the skies while driving...this was taken on my way to work this morning! Absolutely beautiful!

365/4: It's All About the Dawgs!
