Favorite Photo from 2006

Stealth Air Force One? I took this photo from behind the famous aircraft on the 3rd mezzanine level of the Air Force One Pavilion in the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library when I noticed the unusual reflection pattern on the glossy surface of the rudder and vertical stabilizer. I knew immediately that I had a great shot! The lighting angles and the highly-polished surface of the airfoil made this interesting optical illusion. The vertical tail looks like you can see through it!

Pelican Island

Last Saturday, while we were on a photo outing to Palos Verdes, I caught this flight of pelicans soaring along the cliffs with Santa Catalina Island in the background.

Shotgun Show

Sunday’s outing to the shooting range brought a satisfying feeling to Verna as she hits the target dead center five out of five rounds. Press the > control below to play the 20 second video.

I still think she likes it!

Gazebo at Malaga Cove

We posed for this in a gazebo overlooking Malaga Cove in Palos Verdes Estates. The South Bay beaches can be seen behind us. This was a great day for photos and Verna got a bunch of them.
