The Fundamental Expression

Santa Barbara

9.24.2009

This past weekend the parents and I helped my sister move into to her new [but temporary] home on the U.C. Santa Barbara campus. Yeah, it is a bit sad knowing I can't see my baby sister until holiday breaks, but what can you do? This had to happen some time. Anyway, here are a couple shots from the trip. There's only a few; we were too busy running around trying to find everything Nicole needed to get settled. There aren't any shots of the campus, but I guess because there are so few, I used it an excuse to work on my PP, or Post-Processing, skills. Other than saying bye, it was a pretty fun trip, SB is way chill! I would not mind living there.

Damn, I love making HDRs

Happy Birthday Sowse.

So, summer's over, school just started, and I missed the first day. Great way to start off the semester if you ask me! Anyway this past weekend, was the last weekend before school started which coincidentally was the same weekend of Sarah's birthday. There was dinner at Applebees then a bonfire at Ocean Beach. I wasn't able to go to the dinner because of work, but still managed to meet everyone for the bonfire. And what do you know, I had my camera with me!

L.A. - Day 4 "Pinky & a Bun"

8.23.2009

Our last day... The last post, finally! L.A. was dope - from the beaches to the food, even Disneyland to the shops - it was legit; the only thing I would have changed was the length we were there for. 4 days and 3 nights is too short; next year, we need at least a week. But we'll see what happens, we're ALL turning 21! Hmm.. Vegas?

So to make a long story short... We woke up, checked out by 10, headed over to peep the Staples Center - F*ck the Lakers - [ I wanted to set the place on fire, but Mark wouldn't let me ], ate some killer hot dogs at Pinks, won Car Wars, then headed back home.

Here are 2 shots - of The Ritz-Carlton and JW Marriott towers - I couldn't decide between. The one on the left is an HDR, the one on the right is not. What do you think?
