The kite festival in Long Beach, Washington was a lot of fun. Music, kites and food from dawn to dusk for six days.

Of the first two sunrise photos, I like the first the best. I like how the mist rests in the trees below the horizon. The third shot is a sunset over the ocean on the same day. Look for the kites flying in the night sky.

Grandma and Grandpa had a great day at the zoo with a few of our grandchildren.

These three shots consist of five shots each at different exposures and blended with Photoshop HDR. Shooting west after dark at Crown Point, Oregon.
