The Yellow Trams of Lisbon

Lisbon is one of the most fun and beautiful cities I've visited.  While there, I fell in love with its trams, especially the bright yellow ones. These are some photos I took while traveling there. I used color selection to only pick up the yellow of the trams, then I added some blur to certain areas to give it a cool effect. I hope you like them! A couple of these photos are my best sellers on my Etsy store!

Stars and Hearts in Paris

Paris is such a fun city to photograph. I loved it last time I was there, and I cannot wait for the next time I go there. Today, I decided to have some editing fun with some of my Parisian photos. Here's what I came up with. I hope you'll like them!

My Valentine's Day Flowers

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! My amazing husband sent me flowers today so, as any photographer would do, I took a bunch of photos of the arrangement. At the end, I decided to use my macro lens and those are the photos I'm posting here. I hope you enjoy them.

Beautiful Shorelines

I'm back! After over a month absence, I'm back and ready to work on this blog again. My first son was born at the end of last year, a bit ahead of schedule, so everything in my life had to be put on hold until things settled a bit after his arrival.

On this post, I share photos of shorelines from Mendocino County's Irish Beach. I love the tranquility of these photos. I don't know, there is something about the water coming in and going out, steadily, endlessly, that ready soothes one's soul.

Hope you like these photos. For more photos, go to my Etsy store or visit my website.

Mendocino Golden Moments

Over the holidays, my husband, his parents and I went to Irish Beach up in Mendocino County. During the 6 days we spent there, we were fortunate to enjoy lovely warm days. We were also fortunate (at least I think so!) to enjoy some evenings when the fog slowly rolled in from the ocean, covering everything around us, giving me wonderful opportunities to photograph it, especially when the sun was setting! During other evenings the sky was clear and we enjoyed the sun turning everything gold. Here are some photos of this golden moments!

My Etsy store is currently set to vacation mode. Also while in Mendocino, my water broke and, a day and a half later, my son arrived.  I will do my best to continue to post photos but I can just tell that life will be a bit busier for me in the next few weeks!

Cable Cars and Christmas Lights

Christmas is my favorite time of the year. I love the feeling in the air, the holiday cheer, the carols, everything. I especially love the lights that decorate everything everywhere. To take advantage of the holiday cheer and the lights that come with it, I went down to San Francisco's holiday cheer central: the Union Square area. In the middle of the square there is a gigantic tree, courtesy of Macy's, a skating ring and an infinite amount of lights all around. Farther down on Powell Street, the Cable Car stop is lined with lovely lights. Cable cars AND Christmas lights? Yes, please. Here are some photos of that special spot in the city.

I hope you enjoy these photos. For more fun photos, visit my Etsy store or go to my website.
