Sorry for the major lack in posts... believe it or not, I've been keeping myself extremely busy the past couple of weeks. Now that I have some down time, I'm trying to touch up on photo editing. I posted this Off the Wall photo of Dean a while back, and decided to play around with it a bit in photoshop. I've been trying to take more photos lately... soon I'll have ample opportunity to do so because I'll be going on vacation. My family and I are going on an Alaskan Cruise next week to celebrate my mom & dad's 50th Wedding Anniversary... we'll be staying in Vancouver for a few days as well. Can wait! Something about being a tourist makes picture taking extra fun! Also, the fact that I did something crazy like purchase a new lens that I really wanted for the trip will make it even better! It was a last minute decision to purchase it... it sort of just happened... I couldn't control the urge... it was one of those "but I really need it for the trip" kind of purchases. Haha. Anyway, can't wait to try it out... it's out for delivery on the UPS truck as I type!

Happy hump day!


An old photo I took of Dean at Kaka'ako...



... We're leaving for Japan today! I'll try to keep my blog going with pictures from our trip! Sayonara... Ja ne!

... well, technically, I guess it would be Aloha Thursday. This is an extra good Thursday for two reasons... the first reason being that tomorrow is a Holiday and I am off! Second reason being that because I'm off tomorrow, and the 5th falls on a Sunday, we get our paychecks today! Chee! Can't get any better than that! I love love love long weekends! Have a Happy 4th of July, folks!

I picked up an external flash for my Canon camera today, the Speedlite 580EX II. I normally don't use flash in my photos, however, after missing many photographic opportunities at my niece's wedding in Florida due to a lack of light at the venue, I realized that an external flash may come in handy after all. In low/dark lighting conditions, the normal pop up flash on my Xti just isn't enough. It's too bad I didn't make the purchase before my Florida trip so I could have taken some night shots there, but I will make great use of it on my trip to Japan in October.... we're planning to go there for our honeymoon. Can't wait! Anyway, here's a test shot I took today with my Canon Xti equipped with my new external flash.



Noticed this hottie standing outside of a small hair salon on my way to Kaimuki Camera today.... she definitely caught my attention... I just had to take a quick snapshot. When we peeked through the window of the salon, we noticed some issues of Contrast Magazine laid out on their glass coffee table! Chee!
