Simi Valley Fire

After driving around for THREE hours trying to get to the fire, I gave up because there was absolutely no way of getting close enough to the action... unless of course I had a helicopter, which I don't. I managed to capture this very simple yet beautiful picture... nothing fascinating but I thought my friends and family would appreciate the effort.

Santa Anita Horse Racing

Today was a great day at the Santa Anita Race Tracks. Jake and I loaded up the gear, or he did, and learned about the Nikon D3 and two crazy lenses (200mm and 400mm). I had approximately $10,000 resting in my hands, worth more than my car, needless to say I spent most of my time worrying about dropping it rather than shooting with it. It was a great experience and I got a few shots that I liked.

Had to throw in a panorama...
