I had a LOT of firsts today!
Let us go through the list…
Eating at Tommy’s. Pretty yummy! All covered in Chili,though, good thing I wore black.
A huge first – shooting in complete AUTO! I have realized that I don’t often take my camera out because I want to enjoy my time rather than worrying about great shots. Well – why not worry about having fun and still getting fun shots? I would much rather have snapshots than nothing at all. And when looking back at my photos over the last few years I realized I was in SO few of them. That needs to change.
One first I had the opportunity to meet a great friend I have known online for quite some time. She was in from Alabama and we wanted to meet and they wanted to go to Hollywood for touristy stuff.
Which leads to another first- we went to do touristy stuff in Hollywood. Seriously, did you know in the 23 years I have lived in So Cal I have NEVER been to Hollywood Blvd? Strange, I know!
You’re probably wondering why I had paid for this photo, but I just couldn’t help NOT getting a photo with the tin man. How cool is he? And did you know he is an aspiring paparazzi shooter? Apparently he like, hit Lindsay Lohan’s car or something. I wasn’t really clear on that.
There’s no comparison to The Terminator.
What in the world is this? I dunno! An alien with a two headed baby! And he works for tips? What in the world does he DO for those tips? I am not sure and was too scared to ask. So I snapped this and ran.
Then we went to the Disney Soda fountain place. Here’s a shot of some ice cream. My friend’s husband shoots Nikon, you can see his handy camera in the corner. We liked him anyway.
Why were we so happy here, you ask? Because we saw a bunch of cool kids from High School Musical! Serious, I do not lie. I am not posting photos, but the friend’s hubby with the Nikon got some great shots by lining up and then saying things like “Look over here!” and acting like he was supposed to be there. It was great.
(Looked them up on IMDB, btw – they were Chris Warren JR, Olesya Rulin, Ryne Sanborn, and Kaycee Stroh. 99% sure, anyway.)
