Nikon D3x Bread Sticks | Old Mission    The Mission San Juan Capistrano is a historic landmark.  It was founded over two hundred years ago as the 7th of 21 missions across the state.  It includes a chapel which is still standing where Saint Serra celebrated Mass. Originally was built to be a self sufficient community; a center for agriculture, industry, education and religion and is famous for the annual return of the Swallows.

Way Cool | a 7 Image Story

Way Cool | Wild SunflowerWay Cool | a 7 Image Story  The obvious question: what do you mean by “way cool.”  Way cool, as a term, has been used for many years now.  To me, it’s a feeling of accomplishment, uniqueness, a bit of luck, and the WOW factor.  These images may not be my best in class  image.  Yet, they all tell a certain story of their own.

The small world of a Wild Sunflower turns into a universe for the Lady Bug.  ●  A train carrying its special cargo, a 737 fuselage, travels through a Montana mountain valley.  ●  An old train sits permanently parked outside an old western town train station at Nevada City, Montana.  ●  As the sun sets on the Port of Los Angeles, a freighter from Japan brings automobiles to the USA.  ●  The sun sets on serene Patagonia Lake after a beautiful, balmy 60ºF+ Arizona winter day.  ●  The changing landscape of the American farm from family farm to corporate windmills; while, at least, the lightning stays the same.  ●  And finally, the hope found in spring’s renewal of life.

Each image will be posted individually this week with a bit more narrative under category Way Cool.
