Perez Studios

I was on my way to work one morning and noticed this beautiful sunrise and I had to stop and catch it.  I wish I could say I seen the sun this morning on my way to work but I didn’t.  That didn’t stop me from enjoying the beautiful morning though.  I was enjoying the beautiful mountains along with the way the fields are so green.  The sun seemed to be shining over the clouds above me because I could see the way it was shining on the mountains on the west.  Very amazing how the eagles were out on the prowl early also.  I just loved the whole morning.  Looks like we have some sun now.  

Manuel Perez was putting his stuff in the car this morning getting ready to go to work when he noticed this big glow in the sky.  He jumped in the car and noticed that the sky seemed to be on fire.  He drove over by the lake and snapped this and a few more photos.  It is a good thing he caught it when he did because as soon as he drove down the highway it seemed to just vanish because of the clouds rolling in from the north.  

I got to do some traveling last week.  My wife and I celebrated our anniversary and we went down to Palm Springs and Los Angeles area.  We went over to Laguna Beach to see the sunset and went to some restaurant for dinner which wasn’t very good.  I cant remember the name but it ended with Grille.  We ordered some special which was a steak that seemed to be burnt on the outside where it tasted just like charcoal and was red and bloody on the inside.  The desert was even burnt beyond edible.  I wasn’t happy. 

This is a photo of the sunset from Laguna Beach that I photographed.  I plan on uploading some more photos from the Palm Springs area but we will see when. 

I want to wish you all a Happy New Year and please be careful out there.

Hello All!

It has been a while since my last post.  I have been really thinking about my career and the thought of moving out of the photography field for a profession has crossed my mind.  I have thought more about doing landscapes and selling my work that way.  Not sure yet but I just feel like I get more pleasure out of just shooting landscapes.

I feel like there isnt as much pressure like shooting weddings, parties and other events.  I could do without the stress. 

Well, here is a photo that I caught on my way to work.  I was turning on Brannon Ave. and noticed the sun just peaking over some clouds that had been in the area the day before and it looked amazing.  I used Adobe Photoshop to modify the colors and lighting and also adjusted the shadows.

Tell me what you think…

This is a photo of a nice sunset in Okinawa, Japan.  We were on this very wet exercise that had rained almost all of the seven days we were out there and I caught a glimpse of the sunset.  I snapped this photo with my Advantix camera.

This is an old photo that I took with my Minolta Dimage 5.  My wife and I were on Labor Day weekend and we went up to Huntington Lake.  We drove down one evening to Shaver Lake to have dinner and on the way back to the camp I stopped and took this photo.  I must say that it is very beautiful up there and would love to go again with my Canon.
