Michigan Park - Whittier, CA - 10.22.2008

Another year, Another birthday for the little one, Another day spent at Michigan Park holding party tables at 7 am in the morning.
Last year there was a damp fog over the park in the early morning which provided a nice ambiance around the trees. This year it was not so - but there was a slight mood to the park. It was much busier there to say the least and I think I prefer the park on a Sunday morning instead of a Saturday.
My subjects were much the same as last year, though one of the benches I liked last year was vandalized during the past year and did not make any of my images. Here are the ones I saved for posting. Thanks for looking.

Lunch Images - Series One


Trying to see how well I keep this going. Taking an image during my lunch break at work when the mood strikes me. Wednesday the 26th I was undecided on where to go so my car drove me to the nearby Starbucks Coffee. I ended up going in for a cup of White Chocolate Mocha, my favorite on the menu.. and despite much inquisition by the barrista or whatever they want to call themselves still was undecided on spending any more money on food. The $6 sandwiches did little to wet my hardly existing appetite.
I did however decide that I like it inside this warehouse / airplane hanger style Starbucks and plan on coming back with the laptop for another cup - and maybe some food in the near future. It sure beats the drab over tropical noisy breakroom at work. A place I would rarely consider eating my lunch in .. but current paranoia state of managment has barred us from enjoying our lunch at our desk, which I normally did.. anyways - to many dots and I am off track on my train of thought.

End Ramblings of a somewhat tired and bored Chris.
That up there is my first in hopefully a series of images to contribute to the blog.
