On Sunday morning, the Brother and I went to two Farmers’ Markets. One was down the street from the apartment and the other was a much larger one in Santa Monica. It was so nice to walk around and to be surrounded by the smell of citrus and berries. The colors were so vibrant and an aura of “granola” filled the parking lot. I ended up bringing home asparagus, white peaches, strawberries, daisies, and about 45 photos of fruits and vegetables.

In the afternoon, we drove down to Melrose Ave. and walked around in an antique fair. It was outdoors and people were sellling all kinds of junk. I did, however, score a rare red cover “Catcher in the Rye” for 5 bucks…a nice find. We then walked down the street and browsed through the shops and got a few more photos taken.

I would consider this to be a pleasant Sunday filled with lots of walking, exploring, and photo-snappin’. Until next time, Brother.

I’m at the 2nd WORK Artshow, which seems to be quite a success. The theme this time is “Bipolar” and people interpreted it in various ways. It’s neat to see so many creative people all in one little room sharing the stories behind their pieces. I missed the last one, “Robots and Bunnies”, but saw all the pieces hanging in the back room. It’s funny that Jes went to that one while I was at a bridal shower and now I’m at this one while Jes is at a bachelor party. Hey, Kenneth came by too! That was cool.

Anyway, I’m hanging out with the brother and his friends and I trying out a fast lens (Nikon 50mm f1.4) that I rented for the weekend. It normally retails for about $280 but I got to rent it for $12 for the entire weekend! It was well worth it too because I didn’t have to use flash all night. I can’t believe the low light shots that I was taking and how clear they came out. I may be renting it one more time for Patty’s wedding next Saturday and it will probably be one to put on my wishlist.
