More boats on parade





Christmas boat parade

Dana Point, California has an annual boat parade each Christmas season on the first 2 weekends in December.  Boaters compete by decorating their boats with lights.  Crowds gather all along the harbor as the boats parade up and down.  Here are just a few of them.

Another look at the Mission

I love to take photos at the San Juan Capistrano Mission - known as the "Jewel of the Missions".  There are ruins, gardens, stonework galore.  I have revisited the mission and used a technique called HDR (High Dynamic Range).  This techniques allows me to capture the brightest brights, the darkest shadows and everything in between.  I hope you enjoy these photos.
