It's in the stars

Some photos from our trip to the Griffith Observatory yesterday.

What dreams may come

From 2007_01_19 Ma...

The world welcomes Madyson Stathem. We were there in Sacramento for her birth. Here is a gallery of pictures from the weekend.

Close but...

Enjoying a cigar after a round at Trump National Golf Course. Life is good.

Hike over the city of angels

Looking over the city on beautiful day in Los Angeles.

Tug Boat at Sunset

There was supposedly a comet out last night. I went out to see if I could take some pics of it but as you can see, way too much cloud cover.

This is one of my favorite photos from the holidays. My grandmother unwrapped a USB hub in our white elephant. She was a good sport considering she had no idea what she was looking at.

And just so we're clear... I've added a few more galleries to the holiday photos. Be sure to scroll down for UPDATES.

Takoa With Child

From Takoa Pregnant

On Christmas Day, I did a little make shift photo shoot with Takoa, Mike and Truman. It was a great opportunity to try out my new lights and some artsy techniques. If I had it to do over again, I would have changed a few things but I think I got some real gems.

See what you think. And feel free to let me know which pictures are your favorites so I can gauge which ones to work on in PhotoShop. Thanks!

Takoa's Pregnant Photo Shoot

(Creamy note: I'm moving this out of the Christmas Photos post so it's easier to link directly to it. Also, I've gotten some strong opinions about this pregnant shoot so I'd really love to hear what everyone thinks.)

I'll take the pictures

From New Years Eve 07

I took about 500 pictures on New Year's Eve. Here's 150 that are suitable for public consumption... sorta.

UPDATE: Dre has some more New Years photos at the bottom of this gallery.

Christmas Photos

From Xmas 2006

Here's a big gallery of the xmas in Sacramento and Houston combined. Ernest actually took a lot of the ones from faux-christmas morning in Houston.

We had a whirlwind Holiday tour but, as usual, it was all too short. I wish we could have spent more time with everybody.

Sacramento and Houston Xmas Photos

UPDATE: Rick's gotta cool slide show from Xmas. Check it out here.

UPDATE 2: PJ took some nice photos. She has a Kodak gallery setup here.

UPDATE 3: Uncle Doug took some Xmas photos with his very impressive camera rig. I put them in one of my Picasa galleries for easy browsing.
