a few on a rainy day

Its almost sad how exciting rain is in Santa Barbara. Most of these were from Cole's back yard.

up on the ridge and county grounds

Cole and I biked around on a ridge sort of near the 154. The day was bright and sunny with just a few clouds. We set out on a mission for some good berm-smashing shots, and I believe we got a few good ones. Some flowers and plants may have been shot along the way. Here are the photos from that trip:

its a flower!

They might just be the easiest subject to learn photography with, seeing as how they usually hold still and don't blink often.

First Shots

A few weeks ago, I purchased a Canon EOS Rebel T2i, my first DSLR (or SLR for that matter). Here are some of the first shots I've produced with it.
