Photowalking.org just announced a photowalking event in Simi Valley on March 15th. For more information, goto Photowalking.org. Here is a little excerpt from the announcement:
“we’re going to head to the western end of Ventura County, in Simi Valley, and shoot in and around Corriganville Park. The Santa Susana Mountains are a unique mountain range that is loaded with beautiful large rolling rock hills. I’ve shot it before, as you can see in the photo.”
Ventura’s photowalk had a beautiful afternoon. The sun was shinning with a few clouds in the sky. We had a great turn out with 28 photo walkers. We all met at the base of the Ventura Pier. We decided to take a group photo.
There were many different groups join our photowalk from Flickr, Zooomr, Betterphoto and the Ventura County Camera Club. After everyone got to know each other, we then walked down California St to the San Buenaventura City Hall. After the city hall, we walked down Main St. to the San Buenaventura Mission. We then walked down Figueroa St to Surfers Point. We ended the photo walk at the Ventura Pier for a great sunset and the start of a chilly evening with the wind kicking up and providing a little wind chill.
I would like to thank all that joined us on the Ventura Photowalk and really enjoyed talking to all.

This past weekend on November 25, 2007, I met up with the Southern California Photowalking group at Olvera St in Los Angeles. We spent time walking up and down Olvera St taking pictures. We then stopped by the first fire station in Los Angeles. After a short time looking around, we then headed to Union Station and took some wonderful pictures.
Photowalking.org has more information about this photo trip. I would like to thank Trevor and all that made this afternoon fun and thrilling.
My photos from the trip can be viewed at Google’s Picasa.
Last Sunday my wife, Carrie, and I went to Santa Barbara for a day of picture taking. In the late morning early afternoon, we went to the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History to take pictures of the “2007 Butterflies Alive!” exhibit. This exhibit was awsome and a lot better than the LA Natural History Museum’s Butterfly exhibit. The pictures have been posted on my Google Picasa site at http://picasaweb.google.com/acejr371 and Carrie’s are at http://picasaweb.google.com/carriepix.
Late afternoon, we met up with a couple other photo friends to do a photo walk. We found out about this photo walk through a member of the Ventura County Camera Club. We started out at the Santa Barbara Court House and then walked by the El Presisio of Santa Barbara and ended up at the Warf. Along the way, we stopped and took a lot of pictres, which are post on the sites mentioned above. Carrie and I had a lot of fun and do recommend it to any one looking to meet new friends and enjoys taken photos. The website for this photo walk is photowalking.org.
