Posted this on my tumblelog last night. It’s true — I really do take that much with me when I go on location to a shoot, and I probably would take more if I had more. I really wish I had my own studio so I wouldn’t have to lug all that around.

I took advantage of the rain today and got a lot of things done that I have been meaning to do for a long time. Going over my photos from 2007 looking for hidden gems was one of them.

Heather and I spent Christmas afternoon at the beach!
Leo Carillo beach has some great sea caves when the tide is low enough. I was shooting some pretty boring shots of this one when this kid ran through. I waited for him to get out into the sunlight on the other side, and snapped this shot. Hope you like it!
Crab
Here’s another photo I took with the new 100/2.8 Macro lens yesterday:
I came upon this little crab while I was looking for starfish to photograph. An instant after I snapped the shutter, a wave came in, nearly engulfing me and my 5D, and he was gone.
It’s been a long time since I shot with a 100mm lens, and I had forgotten how shallow its depth-of-field is. I guess I’m gonna have to pay more attention to depth-of-field with this lens.
An early Christmas present!
Because our spare time has become so precious, Heather and I have been making a point to get out of the house on the weekends. Lately we’ve been going to the beaches around here, where she looks for beach glass and I take photos. It’s a really great way to unwind.
Today she gave me an early Christmas present for our trip to the beach — a Canon EF 100mm/f2.8 Macro lens! I had a great time taking it for a spin at Abalone Cove Beach in Palos Verdes, which has some wonderful tide pools.
Here’s a starfish I found stranded a little ways up the beach:
And here’s the best piece of beach glass she found today:
