This post is a bit random. But I just had to share this image that I took the morning I left California in June! It was taken at 4:50 am and I shot it handheld without a tripod. It is a single image- not a composite! If I would have had my tripod; my circumstances would have been better! :) But sometimes you must work within what opportunities you are given, and I was happy to shoot within this opportunity! (in spite of having no tripod!)To be honest, I believe this image is one of my favorite landscapes from that trip. :)

Soooo..... I know there are some who have long been waiting for me to blog all year with glimpses from traveling other than this one (Like Mexico, Malibu Beach in Cali, Jess and Jordan, Alyssa and Clinton, Star Trails, Blue Ridge Parkway, Marissa Senior, Chicago, Justin and Jillayne, the list goes on! ) .... haha! But I'm really sorry! I've literally been all over the place and I'm just too crazy busy right now to spill out my over-full portfolio of pictures! So.... I ask you to please enjoy this beautiful, pre-sunrise image that literally took my breath away when I stepped out of the room I was staying in that morning. After visiting this stunning location; I must say it was quite hard to pack up my bags and say goodbye. ;(  

I'll post more later... I promise! ;) (and it won't just be landscapes from Cali, there will be people images too)
