Double Vision: Dualing Tacomas
It’s been a long time since I have updated my site with any photos, and I thought I would add some that I captured on Friday. Overall my camera hasn’t been getting much use the past couple of months, but over the past week or two I have been trying to make a solid effort to shoot with it more frequently. Here’s some images of my Tacoma along with another belonging to a colleague of mine (Tony Camacho). Side by side, they looked great together in the office parking lot. Since I took these in broad, mid-morning daylight the light was a bit contrasty and harsh, making a perfect opportunity for some HDR images. Most of these were comprised of 3 to 5 exposures using HDR Effex Pro and Aperture.

Spring shows…
Here’s a couple of shots from some recent auto shows that I made it to. Both were in Albuquerque over the past month. This first shot was actually a restored ’55 Chevy for sale outside of the Muscle Car Nationals show. No, I didn’t buy it

The second is of a new Boss 302 Mustang that was taken at the Motor Trend International Auto Show. This bad boy just looks mean.

pups…
A new four legged addition came and joined the Shoemake household in Albuquerque this week. He is a silver colored beagle, only 11 weeks old. Being the weather nerds that we are, we named him “Meso” as in mesocyclone (a rotating updraft within a severe thunderstorm). “Meso” is our second beagle, the first being “Chase” (11 years old). Click on the image below to see some of their backyard shenanigans.

Utes vs. Lobos
I had the opportunity to attend the UNM game on the 18th when the University of Utah visited Albuquerque. It was fun to see a top 25 team (Utah), but the score was quite lopsided to say the least. The Utes spanked the Lobos 56-14. It’s not hard to get good seats at the UNM stadium, so here are a few shots captured from the stands near the 50 yard line.

cherry blossoms in Washington DC…
Margie and I went to Richmond, VA last weekend for a very quick trip to visit her Mom. We were able to squeeze in a quick jaunt up to the Capitol city, just in time to see some blooming cherry trees. We didn’t have much time to spend there, but we really enjoyed the quick visit and all of the spring colors on display. I took several pictures; here is a teaser below. If you click on the image or this link, you can see all of them.
