The Flower Fields in Carlsbad, CA {Travel}

For this weeks “Travel Tuesday”, I want to share with you a fantastic location in Carlsbad, CA called The Flower Fields. This location was suggested to me years ago and in March of 2007 I had the chance to go down and let my macro and landscape photography run wild.

Here’s a little more information about them:

The Flower Fields season begins March 1st.

For over sixty years, Mother Nature has transformed the rolling hills of North San Diego County into one of the most spectacular and coordinated displays of natural color and beauty anywhere in the world. The nearly fifty acres of Giant Tecolote Ranunculus flowers that make up The Flower Fields® at Carlsbad Ranch, in Carlsbad, California, are in a full bloom for approximately six to eight weeks each year – from early March through early May – literally bringing the famous fields back to life. This annual burst of color, which has become part of the area’s local heritage, is also one of nature’s official ways of announcing the arrival of spring here in Southern California.

Season: Spring (March 1st through May 9th, 2010)

Hours: Open to the public seven days a week
from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM

Prices: $10.00 for Adults, $9.00 for Seniors 60+, $5.00 for Children 3 – 10,
Children 2 and under are Free

Season Passes: $20.00 for Adults, $18.00 Seniors 60+, $10.00 for Children 3 – 10

Wagon Rides: $5.00 for Adults, $3.00 for Children 3 – 10

I hope you enjoyed my photographs from The Flower Fields. I would suggest everyone should take their family at least once and soak up the beauty that the Flower Fields has to offer.

Seattle, Washington {Travel}

Today’s “Travel Tuesday” is about my trip to Seattle, Washington. I went to Seattle on business in 2007. It was suppose to only be a day trip but I extended it a couple more days as I really wanted to see the city.

The month was January almost three years to the date. It was cold, damp and overcast.  I figured since my trip was going to be extremely quick I wanted to book a tour so I could capture all the main highlights. Well if you have ever tried to book a tour during this time, you’ll quickly see they don’t have any! Well, not 100% correct! I found one and the only one!

The tour guide took us to the Fremont Troll, passed by the Space Needle, took photographs at Kerry Park and we were set free at Pike Place Market.

I knew Seattle was known for having American Bald Eagles. I had always dreamed about photographing them. So I asked the tour guide if I could hire him for a few hours so he could drive me around to find some. She said sure he had nothing else to do that evening. Evening is the key word. The guide took me to Schmitz Park. The only two photographs I was able to capture of the Bald Eagle was right when the sun was setting. Not the best photographs I’ve ever taken but still had them photographed! Now the guide and I decided to walk the park. We saw a huge tree that had fallen down and all the roots were exposed. I photographed the guide who is 6’1 in front of the fallen tree. You’ll see the roots were huge!

On my last full day I heard that Seattle has an amazing zoo called the Woodland Park Zoo. I also heard that the Pacific Science Center had a butterfly exhibit. So I rushed down to the Pacific Science Center to photograph the butterflies then rushed to the zoo. The zoo photographs I’ll add in a future blog.

But now enjoy the butterflies and the rest of the photographs from my trip to Seattle, Washington!

Roo 9 1/2 weeks old {Personal}

Roo is 9 1/2 weeks old now and she’s growing up so darn fast!  Seems as if she double in size recently. Her legs are getting longer and her face is filling out.  I wonder how tall and big she’s going to be. Roo’s personality is really shinning. She’s cute as ever!

Like most puppies, she bites, bites and bites some more. With all the toys in the house she continues to bite our hands and clothes.

We are still house breaking her. Hasn’t been the easiest things to overcome.

After our walks, she knows our the stairs to our apartment. She climbs up each step and knows which door is ours.

Here’s a video I took not long ago.

We love this little girl! How can you not!
