moving clouds

i was on my way home after a nice work with the dog at the dog park when i noticed that the sky had very defined clouds. i was driving towards a very interesting patterns only to find that from my back yard i could no longer see them. however, i saw this (see picture above). knowing that nature changes fast i did not take any changes of leaving my back yard but rather get my camera out quickly and shoot, shoot, and shoot. with a little help of photoshop (changing levels) , i'm happy with the end result.

strawberries

i'm not usually one to enjoy california grown strawberries, but this time i did. maybe because they inspired me to pick up the camera, maybe because i am so desperate for anything that reminds me of summer.

rule #1 - make sure you have all the ingredients prior to starting your baking project.

although, breaking this rule creates some make shift solutions which in turns can produce some unexpected results. yum!
