Darioush Winery

Went on a photo outing to Napa to photograph the mustard fields. The mustard was just starting to bloom and wasn't quite as photographic. Stopped at the Darioush winery to photograph the beautiful columns. The first thing I noticed was the shadows on the columns and the dark angry sky. The shadows on the columns looked like men with their heads bowed. I thought the couple was a nice effect too.

Shalimar

I played around with this image. I was trying to figure out how to add more light on the label without having a reflection on the bottle.  Mmmm.... Suggestion anyone?

Sather Tower

Sather Tower(bell and clock tower) is located on the University of California, Berkeley campus. It is the University most recognizable symbol. It is more commonly known as The Campanile due to its resemblance to the Campanile di San Marco in Venice

Action Figure

I step on this little guy tonight.  Very painful.  I don't know who he is, but he almost ended up in the recycle bin

Resuscitated

Two days ago while out on my walk, I went to take a picture with my P&S  and it would not click.    At first I thought it was the batteries, so I install fresh ones, still nothing.  I googled  the problem and tried a few possible solutions, still nothing.  Well I remove the batteries put it back in it's case and forgot about it.  Today I came home and decided to try one more time.  Installed fresh batteries, press the power button,  Tah Dah!  Presto it works.  Took several shots, all good.  Not sure what happen, but I'm glad it's working,  I did not feel researching a replacement.
