A Heat Wave and A Marathon
Los Angeles held its 30th Annual Marathon today, with the participation of some 26,000 runners. But LA also had a heat wave this weekend which made the marathon very hard for the runners. We saw lots of people having a great time but many suffered with cramps and heat exhaustion. Aside from that, it was a great event and I enjoyed cheering for runners as they passed by my neighborhood.

One Spot, Three Perspectives — My photography class assignment was to shoot three photos from the same spot using different focal lengths. We had to choose one lens, and shoot with: (1) the widest focal length possible; (2) a mid-range focal length (50mm to 70mm); and (3) the highest focal length possible. I chose my Nikkor 18mm-140mm lens. Here is one of the sets I shot.
365 – Day 70
Spring is Here! And with spring come warmer days, bees, birds, and, of course, lots of flowers! Not that L.A. is flowerless during the winter. In fact, L.A. is never flowerless. We have flowers all year long –including some pretty awesome desert stuff– but there’s never as much variety as in the spring. So, if we keep getting some rain (fingers crossed), soon they’ll all be blooming with full force! Here are a few flowers blooming in our garden right now.

Kaya’s Birthday — Today was Kaya’s sixth birthday! She still looks like a puppy but she’s a young adult in dog years… 🙂 She had a little party, we sang happy birthday and gave her a special cookie that she devoured in less than a minute. She also got a new toy bunny that will be slowly destroyed over the next few months.
