This caught me eye, so I spent hours off and on trying to capture it.
Orchid in the Window
Mutha’s Day 2015
This year we made the decision to make Tonkotsu Ramen for Mother’s Day. The broth was made during 2 prior weekends as the pork bones have to be boiled for 12hrs.
I was so focused on the food I forgot to take any photos other than a Aunty portrait after lunch. I was shooting into the sun so I brought out the Alien Bees strobe with a 7ft umbrella, full power.
Noah & Nico
This morning I decided to attempt to shoot the Yuen (Noah & Nico) boys. I choose a deck behind Harbor Bay Sports Club. As always I have a plan of how these shoots will go, but the kids are have a different agenda. The sun was right in their faces which is a no-no but I thought I would challenge myself.
Easter 2015
Easter at the Yuen’s this year. Unfortunately I didn’t take many photos.
Koa’s Spa Day
We had to get Koa ready for Easter Sunday so a little dog polo and a mango scented bath was called for.
A few portraits after her spa treatment.
Coot Wars
Sat out this morning coffee in one hand 7D2 in the other. Not a big fan of coots but they were very active. It must be mating season. So do they fly or walk on water?
Cormorant poop @ 10fps
Its so easy to shoot burds in our backyard. Cormorants are playful and very active. They are either diving for fish or spreading the wings in the sun
My Sony A6000 can capture 10fps (frames per second) I’ll spare you all the poop shots but I knew he would do this, the bastard.
Noah
Shot this last night during dinner at a dimly lit Shakewell in Oakland. ISo 3200 – 1/200 – f2.8
Sow Bug/Woodlouse/Pill Bug/Roly Poly
Shanky
When we dined at Bodega Bay I had a great Lamb Shank dish. I liked it so much I did my best to duplicate it.
I have to say it came out great I think I nailed it. Braised in a whole bottle if Zin and 2.5 hrs later.
