Historic View.

Travel notes:
There were too many people on the weekend.
The best time obviosly is during the week.
I couldn't get to the desired location(north end, looking
towards the City).
There will be a next time.

Music of choice included CCR, The Who, Jethro Tull,
Dave Matthews, Paul McCartney and Deep Purple.
Grank Funk guitarist Mark Farner
performed at the Santa Cruz Boardwalk
on Friday, August 24th, 2007.
The veteran rocker still had it as he
performed two shows at 6:30 and 8:30.
The set list included In Need, Mean Mistreater,
Some Kind of Wonderful, Inside Looking Out
and I'm Your Captain.
He will be coming to Fresno in April of 2008!

The Turntable as Art:
a color study in blue.
Boredom during summer, more classes around the corner.
Books read, movies seen, how many red bulls did I drink to get this image?
(again, in photoshop, tweak the image in curves and
experiment with the bule channel).
Choose your own idea and photograph it
on a white background.

Mitt Romney makes Fresno Stop!
Mitt Romney stopped in Fresno at
La Boulangerie to campaign
on the issues important to voters.

Mr. Romney before questions from the press.

It will be interesting to see how all the candidates
will fare in next years election. With so many places to go
and people to see, the process is much more
complicated than ten years ago.
(You got to give him credit for being a republican.)

The Camera as Art!
This is my 100th post!
There is nothing you can't do as an artist. You take a basic
photo, clean it up, and run a curves adjustment(in photoshop).
I have a favorite choice...but you can experiment
to your liking!


Graphic Illustration
I am thinking of including this as a greeting card, but
it needs a little more something.
Tell me what you think.
Feedback welcome!
