San Diego Photography

Filed under: Photography — Tags: , , , , , , — webmaster @ 5:34 pm

Today Derk photographed Petco Park, the commuter trains and other points of interest to the Convention Center.  I photographed Civic Center Plaza, fountain, and everything of interest to Horton Plaza Mall.  I stopped at Macy’s in the mall and was really tempted to do some shopping.  Why do clothes always look better in California than at home?  But, I stuck to our time schedule and resisted the temptation.

We met at the Marriott Marina and photographed boats moored there. Then we walked and photographed Embarcadero Marina Park with its beautiful bronze statues, Sea Port Village shops and fountains, the waterfront, and various means of transportation.  A pedicab brought us back to the hotel.  We arranged for the pedicab driver to pick us up tonight for a ride through the Gaslamp Quarter.  I photographed it last year in the day time.  Now we’ll add night images to our collection.

San Diego Harbor Cruise

Filed under: Photography — Tags: , , , , , , , — webmaster @ 9:49 am

We finished working yesterday by photographing some of the Trees Project 3 along the Embarcadero and taking a late afternoon cruise in San Diego Harbor.

Although we have worked here on three earlier trips, we were surprised to see the sea lions and birds at the bait traps in the harbor.  Reminds us of the sea lions in San Francisco Bay.  But here there is no way for tourists to see them unless by boat.

If you have photo requests for us, PLEASE email them to us at kphotos@earthlink.net.  It seems that the spam catcher on this blog may prevent us from receiving photo requests that are left as comments to the blog.

Working in Orlando

Filed under: Florida,Photography — Tags: , , , , , — webmaster @ 5:19 pm

Yesterday and today we worked in Orlando, Florida.  We have photographed Universal City Walk, Mall at Millenium, and the new Festival Mall. It is hot – 102 degrees today -  feels like 115!!!

City Walk’s current theme is “Scream Louder” as seen on billboards over I-4 highway.  And the 50,000 visitors were screaming Sunday!

Today we were seated at a window table at the Cheesecake Factory restaurant in the Mall at Millenium.  Fascinating parade of different types of humanity.

Working in Key Largo, Florida, USA

This week we have been working in Key Largo, Florida, USA. Great place to photograph marine fish (John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park) and marine mammals.

Fortunately there was no rain and the waters above the coral reefs were not riled up so visibility was wonderful. We took the snorkel tour from John Pennekamp and photographed at White Banks. We swam with many, many more fish than when at the Great Barrier Reef in Australia!

We also photographed dolphin/human encounters and should have great film from there. Lighting might be a problem as ambient light was low due to approaching storm clouds. The film is being developed now.

While on the dolphin property we photographed ibis birds exhibiting unusual behavior. A large group- 15 or more – were standing in a huge puddle, maybe 1/2 foot deep, some were bathing while others appeared to be drinking. We’ve never seen them bathe before.
