I recently got me a Canon 5D Mark II, this is one of the first shots I took with it. I have to say the camera is pretty sweet. I shot this with the 24-105mm F4 lens that comes in the kit. For this shot, I did absolutely zero post camera modifications to show you exactly what the camera can do. The camera’s mostly on automatic at this point, the user manual has over 100 pages!

I’m back from vacation in Hawaii, and finally caught up from the onslaught of work enough to get back into processing and posting photographs from the trip! These two “stand-up” surfers were just out on the water having a great time. What attracted me to this photo was the lines of the water, as it got deeper and deeper.

Taking the Anacortes Ferry from Victoria, BC to Anacortes, WA, you get a wonderful view of Mt. Baker. Usually I find that taking a shot of a mountain off in the distance is futile, as the snow on the mountain typically blends in with the cloud and the mountain disappears, but it was such a crisp morning out on the water Mt. Baker just leaped out of the country side.

I spent a good 3-4 hours at Buchart Gardens the other day, and if you want my opinion, without the rose garden in bloom, the Japanese gardens is by far the best section of the whole thing. I kind of wish I didn’t toss out the flower finder guide so I knew what this one was called. Anyone know? For now I’m calling it the Japanese Pink Pealback. I gotta be close right?

At Buchart Gardens over the Memorial Day weekend, this tulip was a good 3 or 4 inches taller than the rest.

This fence was built around the tree, which was great since it was a beautiful tree.

Seeing as I’m in Seattle this week, I felt this picture appropriate. After you’ve got about 100 shots of the Space Needle, you start looking around the Space Needle, and the clouds really drew me to this one.

While at the Chihuahua meet-up this past weekend, Chico was harassed by a puppy named Henry, and the look on his face is priceless. Truth be told though, Chico would see any other dog off that came near Henry… so I think they are friends.

While walking around the Vancouver Public Market on Grandville Island, this gentleman had a few things for sale, and he looked content just sitting in the middle of it all.

My last visit to Chicago, I saw this L-Train speeding by and captured it mostly sharp, while blurring the background. Looking at it after I shot it, it reminded me of the L-Train that Spiderman chased and stopped in Spiderman 2 vs Doctor Octopus.
