61/365 Dad's Birthday

Beginning Dad's Birthday party...

Cheers to dad, and some great margaritas!

I'm sure my mom will hate this one, but I like it.

Becker, the neighbor's dog, hanging out on his deck.

Another great CA sunset... though the sun was much oranger, and the sky much bluer! Still need to practice with the color/exposure settings.

this is going to end up taking well over a year, m'afraid.

Niku, one of the few kids I teach who actually WANTS to act, AND is good! She played "Princess Ibis," a bobcat, in the year end show.

k, maybe not entirely back into ... but.

Kyle, just after performing at the Gay Pride Festival, with Amy & Elysa as his backup singers (he also had a team of dancers; it was pretty amazing).
More photos from that here.

And more photos (and better than last week!) from my class here.

I didn't realize that with flickr, you use up your bandwidth by deleting what you had on there, not just the storage amount. Grrr. Hence my having to put the others on photobucket.

Ok, I think I'm back into the swing of things again...

And a runner up (I was playing with focus):

Almost looks like a bridal bouquet (or has it been so long I've no idea what I'm talking about?)!

I'm now the designated photographer for my acting class (they're creating a website). Along with taking photos of the teacher, I was - and am always - mesmerized by watching my friend Jennifer practice on her cello. It's one of the most beautiful sounds I've ever heard.

More:

I'm not sure why, but I love the 'feel' of this photo.

Teacher.

One of the MAJOR reasons I missed L.A. When I was homesick, it was usually for this class. He's a rare one.

WARNING - ONE word of profanity is used in this post!

Tried to get a clear pic with my phone cam as that's all I had with me, but this car in front of me today had a very odd license plate frame that I did not get... or understand...



It said:
(top) FUCK YOUR
(bottom) COUCH

Huh?
It was clearly home-made, so I don't know if that's a private joke amongst friends or what. Why someone would put a private joke on a license plate frame, I also do. not. get.

I have been so ill and preoccupied, I've not even had the energy to take photos. How pathetic is that.
Trying to pick it back up again, we have ... slightly unpleasant subject matter, but here's how I spent my morning:
Fortunately, I didn't have to um, get on there.
Unfortunately, I had a nincompoop doctor who didn't listen to me clearly.
Fortunately, my previous test results were in, so I only had to get a copy and LEAVE.
(I've had to go through this to qualify for regular health insurance. Good to be back. :) )

(Yes, I think I'd rather take pics of flowers and landscapes!)

So I failed to photo yesterday.

Here's a "Where's Waldo" photo I took this morning.
Can you spot the grasshopper? (Well, okay, he IS right in the middle - if you click on the photo, he's right there, staring straight at ya).
Those are bad for the garden, correct?
I didn't have the heart/courage to 'remove' him.
