[87/365] Palm Trees and High Rise Buildings, Downtown, Los Angeles, California, USA
It was already starting to get dark, but the buildings and the palm trees still glowed with the brightness of street lights and indoor lights. In the background, the Central Library can be seen. It’s always fun taking pictures of downtown at night!
[86/365] Cooking a Pasta Dish, Los Angeles, California, USA
It has been a while since I’ve cooked, but it was nice finally doing it again! Glad I got myself motivated enough to do it – left work late, went grocery shopping, prepared and finished cooking within 45 minutes, ate, and cleaned up! Things feel like so much less work when you move quickly and […]
[85/365] Colorful Flowers, The Huntington Botanical Gardens, San Marino, California, USA
Happy Easter! Just wanted to post a photo of colorful flowers to capture the spirit of Easter. I miss the days of colorful easter egg hunts!
[84/365] Flower Earrings & Shirt Collar, San Marino, California, USA
Taking a seat on the bench, admiring the tranquility of a stream going through the Huntington Botanical Gardens, I wanted to see if I could get a shot of my earrings and shirt collar. With a 50mm lens, it was suprisingly harder than I thought it’d be (minimal cropping). After many attempts (and wondering why […]
[83/365] Fall Leaves and Bamboo Trees, The Huntington Botanical Gardens, San Marino, California, USA
I went to the Huntington yesterday (Library and Botanical Gardens). It’s huge! There’s all kinds of different gardens. At the entrance to the Japanese Garden area was a bamboo forest and these lovely red leaves. Brought back Japan memories! 🙂 It’s not fall anymore, but for that moment as I was strolling through this part […]
[79/365] Andrew, Urban Light Display, LACMA, Los Angeles, California, USA
It’s always a treat having visitors! Sometime last year, my mom and brother visited me in LA and I was a tour guide to the City of Angels! It was fun. It’s amazing how much I have learned about LA since moving here almost 8 years ago (wow, that’s a long time!). About one-third of […]
[78/365] People at The Grove, Los Angeles, California, USA
Before heading to the parking lot at the Grove, I waited just before the entrance and increased my shutter speed to capture the movement of people moving in and out of the area. The sky was a lovely dark blue color!
[77/365] White & Pink Flowers, Carlsbad Flower Fields, Carlsbad, California, USA
Today I had brunch at La Dijonaise in Culver City and the paintings throughout the restaurant were so nice! They were scenes from all over with colorful, vibrant colors. This photo reminds me of a painting of a field of flowers blowing in the wind there, right behind our table. Hope everyone had a lovely […]
[76/365] The Geffen Conteporary at MOCA Crosswalk Button, Downtown, Los Angeles, California, USA
Upon entering the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA Downtown, you get a sticker. This is where the stickers go afterwards!
[75/365] Waiting with my Suitcase at the Seattle Airport, Seattle, Washington, USA
When I have weekend trips, I always try to maximize my time. I rushed from work to LAX one day, ready to board my flight to Seattle. Little did I know, a protest on Century Blvd. would create more traffic than I expected. I parked and ran to the Virgin America terminal that seemed to […]
