I was given the opportunity to photograph the Miss Escalon Pageant. I had a Wonderful time. I got to chat with an old friend. That same friend told me you are a farmer not a photographer. I know but I still like to take pictures and think I have at least some skills. Well here are some of the pictures.

April 16, 2005 a day that lasts a life time.

 The picture above is when she realized we were not there to celebrate my birthday and figured out everyone else was in on the surprise.

These pictures are a little on the older side. The are from when I proposed way back on April 16, 2005.

Fireworks in Ripon

 

These are some shots I got while in front of my sisters house in Ripon.

Fireworks on the 3th of July

It all started with a text message from a friend. She is the creator and photographer for lensdaisy.com . She had mentioned that she wanted to shoot some fireworks and said that she was going to Manteca's firework display. She told me what setting she thought I should use. I thought i knew better but it turns out she was right. I ended up with 2 good pictures out of the 110 that I took.
