a D90 Love Story

I have been recently blessed by being able to purchase a new Nikon D90 camera with a Nikon Nikkor 18-200mm lens. I have only had it for a week and have been going out trying some different techniques. I have made my way from the San Clemente beach and through Camp Pendleton Marine base so far.

Without going into a deep long-winded review, this camera/lens combo is amazing. The zoom and image stabilization have helped me capture helicopters flying past with the ability to see the pilots face very crisply (at full resolution). That being said, these next months are going to be quite the adventure.

The photos in this first batch include photos on my miniature schnauzer Mia Bella, my grandmother, the T-Street beach in San Clemente and the lookout point just off of the I-5 S through Camp Pendleton. Enjoy.

Nature Photo Roundup

I have taken a lot of photos in the past and some of my favorite have been nature. I thought it would only be fitting to gather up all of my nature photos into a single spot. Flowers always seem to turn out well but I decided to not put all of them here. Enjoy!

Wild Animal Adventure

In early March Sara and I went with Bailey, Roshi and their son Kaden to the Wild Animal Park and we had a blast.

Out of the hundreds of photos I will only post a few, although I have to say it made for an interesting day using an DSLR instead of your regular old point and shoot. I was using a Nikon D80 with decent zoom and was able to walk away with some beautiful photos of the rolling tour through the back hills.

My favorite animal to watch had to be the Gorilla. We saw everything from food fights to fist fights and loved every minute of it. Enjoy the photos!

San Clemente Pier

This is my first post, so I thought I would add some fun photos I took while in San Clemente on my lunch. It’s amazing what you can walk away with using just a little perspective and a Nikon D90.

I walked through the parking lot up to a small bench around 50 feet from the rail road tracks overlooking the pier. There is just something so relaxing about sitting at the beach. I don’t know if it’s the sights or the sounds that capture me but I am a true lover of the beach.
