Woke up today to rain. Showers off and on all day. Fall has set in.
An HDR image tonight. I took a picture of this flower tonight. We have 2 plants in our house and both have this same flower. Lamp backlit the subject
We are in the back yard this evening playing in the backyard.
We got these back in Maui when we went in Dec 2007. Sometimes they hang in the back yard, sometimes they hang in the shelf in the garage, depending on the time of year and the velocity of the wind.
We went on a boat ride this afternoon on My Girl. What bridge(s) are you looking at here in Tacoma, Wa? You don't get to see this view very often.
I took my dad out to breakfast today and as we were pulling into the parking lot we saw a car show. We both in unison said, lets go get the camera's. So after breakfast we ran home to get the camera's. We spent the rest of the morning shooting and the early afternoon comparing shots and bragging about how we one up-ed each other LOL 
My daughter is taking notes as mom tells her what she needs for the first day of pre-school. It appears to me she is drawing some kind of house. This could be trouble...9-1-1
I will get this shot down before the year ends. I felt it was a bit closer this time than my other 2 trys. I will visit this one again before the end of the year.
I loved that 1985-ish song!!!! Well the heat is back, my office is just under a million degrees and the sun is going to bring out the fans and AC. Along with those it will force us to protect our eyes from the UV rays. Thus my 2 shots tonight. One that shows our family trio of eye wear. Only if it stays until the weekend will I be happy. My 2 shots were taken with a 3 light system tonight. One main (key) light camera right, one fill light camera left and my high key light to blow out the background. Here is my setup shot. A white diffuser is used for the high key backlight. Once again mom comes down to once was a tightly kitchen and sees it has been taken over by the alien light source. I was constantly changing the power on my strobes so I am not sure what power I ended up with on each shot, next time I will write it down.
I couldn't make up my mind if I wanted this drink or not, I ended up putting it back.
My favorite sling bag. Works perfect for on the run shots and fits my gear and extra body or video camera. I frequently get asked how I like it and my response is "it's not bad for a stuff bag"
What is a photgraphers worst nightmare? My daughter dreams about dragons and snakes. A photgrapher has nightmares on losing the images. Here is a photog's best friend. 
These sisters are having too much fun at the Big Italian Gathering. I didn't know an extended family could be this large.
I am told by momma that she is the star of the class and is head and shoulders better than the boys in the pool. Girl Power!!!! Way to knock the boys out of the pool. Floating on her back was the major skill today. She excelled and is progressing very nicely. She has her Mommy's good looks and daddy's athleticism
We were given a new instructor to our team over the summer. BT will be added to the mix of the rest of us trying to conquer the world with Technology :) Welcome aboard Britte. And I am the guy taking the pictures for our department website. She was a very good sport about it.
Eating once again on the back deck. Trying to stay cool. Not sure how hot it got today, but it was too hot. 
Another warm day, went to the pool, came home and had a nap. Had dinner on the deck and then played with more water. She might be turning into a fish.
The kids wanted to run through the sprinkler and we had a great water slide on the big toy as well. My nephew Payne pictured here in a bit of an abstract shot. He is flying through the air trying to dodge the water drops. My daughter followed him in and was as wet as Payne when all things were said and done.
