Today we celebrated Avery’s 1st Birthday at SP2 in San Jose.
Avery’s 1st
Fleet Week Sunday 2018
I was beat from all the commuting & shooting the last 2 days, but Sandy wanted to go watch the Blue Angels take off from Oakland. This is a different perspective than I usual get.
Fleet Week 2018
As usual the opportunity to photograph the Blue Angels is such a draw for me. This year I signed up for a workshop on Saturday that enabled me to get rooftop access at a great location to the Fleet Week festivities. Without a big DSLR to weigh me down, I brought along my A6500 with a 70-300mm lens. I tested this setup on Friday and it worked out fine so Saturday was a go. Here is a combination of Friday & Saturday. I apologize after awhile all these start to look the same.
Blue Angels Practice
The Blue Angels are getting ready for Fleet Week. I grabbed this at the Oakland Airport during a practice run.
Thursday I had my little RX100VI with me when they flew overhead. I quickly got on top of the parking garage and shot a couple.
Dull Sunset
I was watching the clouds tonight as lately they have been thick and low around sunset which acts as a curtain. Tonight the clouds showed some promise but the color were so dull. I had to crank em up in post processing.
Geo & Azzie
We got to see Geo & Azzie for dinner last night at CFood Crush in San Mateo.
Eastern Span Bay Bridge Nightshot I
I realize that I never photographed the new section of the Bay Bridge.
Susannah I
Our neighbor asked for an updated headshot for work. In turn I asked for a portrait session at City Hall. Susannah was kind enough to oblige. I used magmod light modifiers on this shoot.
Hopland
Had to work in Ukiah so rather than sit in the hotel I ventured out to shoot something and to have dinner at the Golden Pig.
Sid’s 50th
Last weekend we flew down to San Diego for Sid’s 50th Birthday.
