Day 4 and 5 in the books. Day 4 was nothing but sleeping, relaxing, and staying inside from the rain. Day 5 was a totally different story. We finally went to Jerusalem today and we were able to go on the Temple Mount. It was windy and rainy but an unbelievable experience.
Here are some pics:

Picture a Day
This kind of project is not new but I just wanted to do something that would force me to shoot more pictures. Basically what I wanted to do is create a book where it would just be a picture for each day of the year. What kind of pictures? It could be anything. It could be of my upcoming travels, my future nephew coming in March, etc. It could be of any random thing. The point is to get a collection of pictures for the whole year. Pictures will come from my DSLR, my wife’s little point and shoot, a friend’s camera that I borrow, my camera phone, etc.
The final result will be just a picture book that is in chronological order. Some pages may have up to 4 pictures and some may have only 1 (especially if I really like the shot I took that day). I don’t know if I’ll publish it to the web because I know I’ll take pictures of people.
I have two main problems or concerns. First of all, can I really keep it up. I hope so. Lastly, I have to wait two months to start this particular project. I wanted to start yesterday but I think the beginning of the new year will be best.
What do you think of the idea?

Last Friday I had an engagement shoot at the Fullerton Arboretum. I had about 15-20 minutes before the couple got there so I decided to bust out my macro lens. I saw a flower that I wanted to take a picture and while I was focusing a bee decided to land on that same flower. Sometimes you just have to get lucky on a shot.

I shot two weddings, two weekends in a row. Here are some shots from the two weddings. I’m slowly starting to get more “portfolio” worthy shots the more weddings I shoot. Like anything in life, there’s always room for improvement.

From my recent trip to Disneyland. I like this picture because it shows both fast motion and still objects in one picture. A classic ride but haven’t gone on it in ages. The wife gets too sick if she does on this.

My Philadelphia trip is coming to an end. Tomorrow, just a little walk around the University City area and then lunch with Kevin. After that, we start our journey back. Today we finally made it to Old City where we saw that broken bell and the outside of Independence Hall (too late to get tickets to get in). We grilled steaks and vegetables back at the Yeow’s. Overall, it’s been a good and relaxing trip. Here are some pics from today.

Day 1 in Philadelphia was relaxing. We didn’t get to do the touristy things today because it rained. Maybe Sunday afternoon or Monday. Hopefully the weather will clear up. We first had a quick tour of the UPenn campus. We did go into the famous Wharton business school building. Then we had lunch with Kevin and his parents, who are visiting, at Honey’s. Very good food. After that, we hung out with the Esther’s (Esther C and Esther H) and had some gelatos at Capogiro Gelato. We have some events to go to tomorrow so it doesn’t seem like it’ll be a big picture day. Here are two pictures from today… one from Wharton and the other from Capogrio Gelato.
