It’s officially spring time here in SoCal but some days it already feels like summer. I truly am lucky to be living in an area where we get sunsets like this.

Although Spring is officially one week away, the San Diego area is getting a head start with some spring like weather this weekend. With the time change and the plant life in the area starting to blossom, I’ll be spending more time with my camera and doing more photo walks soon.

The San Diego area is getting more rain tonight and later on in the week. It’s not nearly the same amount as last week but will probably be the last significant amount we get in this area for the remainder of the year. It was fun while it lasted.

I was going over the 3000+ pictures that I took this year and I came across this one in Lightroom. I wish I had something meaningful to say about this picture but the fact of the matter is, it’s one of those pictures that just catches my eye. Maybe it was the moment that I snapped the picture or the occasion. Who knows. All I know is that every time I come across this picture, I stop and just look at it.

What a great weekend for shooting and being outdoors. I was back in San Jose this weekend to attend a couple events. The first was on Saturday for Scott Kelby’s 2nd Annual Worldwide Photo Walk in downtown San Jose. The second event was AIDSWalk San Francisco 2009 on Sunday held at Golden Gate Park. I’ll be blogging and posting more pictures from both events soon.

For now, I wanted to share my favorite picture from Saturday. This is one of my entries for Scott Kelby’s Photo Walk contest where he will select a Grand Prize winner and 10 Honorable Mention photos from thousands of participants all of the world who participated in this historic event.
