The ABCs of Santa BarbaraOriginally uploaded by R Stanek Back when I was pregnant, I wanted to make an alphabet poster for [untitled], using letters from signs around town. Well, Sam turned 7 months old today, and I finally finished the poster! We hit up many local Santa Barbara institutions, particularly the nearby neighborhood joints…

Caution!Originally uploaded by R Stanek I just really love the bright red sign against all the blue and gray. Also, the breakwall does get very slippery sometimes, yikes. Week 19 (yes, I know it’s late, but there’s a good reason) of Project 52.

Scrubbing bubblesOriginally uploaded by R Stanek I know I said “no flowers”, but I’m using this picture because it actually has a story behind it! I was lagging behind the rest of the family while walking in Santa Monica, and wanted to get a picture of these great flowers. While I was doing so, and…

BusyOriginally uploaded by R Stanek It’s busy everywhere right now. Busy on the blog! Busy at home, now that Sam’s eating solids and we’re making baby food! Busy at work! Busy with photography, as I’m working on an alphabet project for Sam’s room. So I thought this busy photo was appropriate. I’m still going through…

Hanging aroundOriginally uploaded by R Stanek Yesterday I met up with a few other local Flickr people and went on a photowalk at the harbor! I love the harbor so much. It got overcast, and then it got cold, so we didn’t last very long. Long enough, though! I took tons of pictures, and uploaded…

Takin’ it to the streets!Originally uploaded by R Stanek Boy, this was a stupid resolution. Uh, this is from my archives, which are running a bit thin. Anyway, I think this is cute, and there are worse things in life than being whimsical. (Week 15 of Project 52.)

LinedOriginally uploaded by R Stanek I know, more diagonal lines! But, much like Sam, the heating vent kept catching my eye. I love the weird patterns made by the rust, and . . . okay, maybe I should dust it. Whatever. Week 14 of Project 52. I’m caught up! We’ll see how long that lasts.

BarriersOriginally uploaded by R Stanek I know I keep doing these backlit shots, but I can’t stop — it’s a sickness! I promise, this will be the last one for a while, but I like the over-exposed nature of this one, plus the spiderweb at the top. Week 13 of Project 52. (Yes, still catching…

More Tivoli LightsOriginally uploaded by R Stanek Another picture from Tivoli! This might be the last Tivoli picture, but it’s not like I could ride any of the rides there, so I spent the entire time taking pictures. Sorry for all the archived pictures, but except for pictures of Sam (which, in addition to sunsets…

Stop. Lights.Originally uploaded by R Stanek It’s been a crazy couple of weeks here, but I’m finally catching up on blogging and resolutions. Here’s another picture from Tivoli — I spent so long wandering around with my camera it’s a shame how few pictures I posted back in June! Normally I’m quite shy about taking…
