photos on the hour (part 1)

photos taken with my blackberry storm.

7am: up from an unrestful night of sleep.

obviously, the new day came waaay too early.

the only remedy? shower time and get ready.

8am: farmers market.

i usually opt for the buena park farmers market,

but i didn't need much so i ended up at cerritos.

i picked up snap peas, artichokes and asparagus,

but really only took interest in photographing carrots and blossoms.

9am: moms garden.

since i was so close, i decided to drop by and visit my mum.

i wandered into her garden and marveled at all the new orchids abloom

10am: hungry!

my sister cooked some shrimp and it was delicious!

11am: on my way to visit an old college friend.

i get stuck in traffic and then a little lost

navigating my way through east la.

(i knew i should've taken the 60!)

pretty interesting rolling through east la during the day.

it's this mix of barrio, industrial, shady, cool.

p-l-e-n-t-y of places i wanted to stop and take photos at, but didn't.

doh!

12noon: friends casa.

such a charming, quant little place.

she went to cut calla lilies from the backyard...

i beyond loved that!

catching up means lots of talks and hugs and whatnot.

this, of course took up a couple hours :)

while waiting for some other friends,

i got a lesson on photo-retouch and basic camera settings and stuff.

nice!

thank you!

3pm: mission get bunny grub.

4pm: thirsty!

crrraaavvviiinggg!

stay tuned for part two
