Big Sur

Sharing a few pics from Big Sur where I spent some time to celebrate my birthday last week. 🙂 It feels strange to be 50 now!

Napa

Sharing a few favorites pics from a trip to Napa earlier this month ❤

NJ / NY / LI

I had a fun trip a week ago to New Jersey, New York City, and Long Island to visit family and thought I’d share a few of the pics. 🙂 I was running around a bit, so these pics were just taken on my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy S20).

Seaside Heights, NJ

NY, NY

Long Island, NY

USVI

Just sharing a few pics from vacation in the beautiful US Virgin Islands. I regret not bringing my actual camera on the trip as the views were just stunning. These were taken with just my smartphone.

Main Street

Just a few pics from a walk on Main Street…we’ve hit peak fall foliage here and it is simply gorgeous.

I also learned how to “pan” (to capture motion) with my camera today, which is really exciting. I was really hoping to capture a fancy sports car going by, but instead I just got this schoolbus. 😆

Country Farmstand

Well it’s the best time of year here in New England…the air is crisp, leaves are changing, and it’s pumpkin season.  Our local community center just started zoom photography classes with an amazing local photographer named Nick Depasquale and so I signed up. I am determined to learn what all the buttons on my DSLR camera do and how to shoot in manual mode.  These are photos I took at a local farmstand that I’m submitting for my first homework assignment. They are all unedited images straight from my camera.
