Eastern Sierras, Mono Lake, and Bodie Photography

August 1st, 2009

On a recent photo trip to Bodie State Historic Park, James took pictures along Highway 395.  Stops included Owens Valley, Virginia Lakes, Mono Lake, the mountains above Bridgeport.  Bodie is the largest ghost town in America with over 100 buildings that are in an ‘arrested decay.’  During the gold rush of 1879, it was once the second largest city in California behind San Francisco. James had special access to video and photograph the interior of many buildings as well!  Check out the photos…

Dolphin stock photographs from the California coast in the Santa Barbara Channel.

January 19th, 2009

Today I took our skiff the beluga out and photographed a large group of Common Dolphins, (Delphinus delphis) Large schools of Common dolphin frequent the Santa Barbara Channel hunting for food.  I found several groups of Dolphins feeding on small schools of bait fish.  Along with the Dolphins were Sea Lions and birds chasing the bait fish as well.  My favorite was the leaping Dolphins that looked like they were in a hurdle relay. Common Dolphins on the Wiki , underwater shots on our stock site here

Big Sur Stock Photography

January 16th, 2009

We took a recent trip up the coast and had some epic weather! We were shooting Big Sur by full moon light and it was 60 degrees with a warm breeze.  The elephant seals on the beaches at Piedras Blancas are in full action birthing new babies. A great trip!

Paragliding- Adventure Photography

November 12th, 2008

Here are a few shots from a recent shoot of paragliders learning to fly!  Fly Above All in Santa Barbara teaches students as they run off the hill at Elings Park.  Ideal for consistent wind and air to fill their sails, the park is located above the Pacific Ocean where there is always an ocean breeze.

Eastern Sierras

October 21st, 2008

A recent adventure took us to the mountain streams and lakes of the Eastern Sierras, California.  Our timing was right to see the trees exploding with brilliant yellows and oranges.  Under the canopy of snow peak mountains and blue skies that city dwellers dream about, we fished for trout and alpers.  Bishop Creek Canyon is only 15 minutes above Bishop, but a whole new world and season 8,500+ feet above the adventure town.  This time of year the cold nights keep hoards of tourists away, so we had the campground to ourselves.  The trip was an ideal get-away and probably would meet most anyone’s desire to escape to nature and to experience its refreshing qualities. Here is a small sample of the photos. Enjoy!
