Daycare Center and Family Home Forum>A Day in Laguna Beach

I promised some members I would post some pictures (I use the Nikon D7000) of my day in Laguna Beach. We went out early for some whale watching. There weren’t any seen along the California coast yesterday morning but we were fortunate enough to see a Finback Whale about 90 feet long. It would submerge for around 7 minutes and we would wonder where it would resurface again. It was several hundred yards away from us and with the boat rocking it was tough to get some good pictures. I've included one. There were also lots of dolphins. I included some pictures from our walking around beautiful Laguna Beach. BTW, I own www.LagunaBeach.com and have a place there. If ever in the area let me know.

Aww, my kids spent the day down at the tidepools near Corona del Mar. They said it was beautiful down there.

My other kids took a ride on the Palm Springs Tram today, said it was nice as well.

Oh yeah, don't get me going on Palm Springs.

Great pictures! I have a d3100 and LOVE it. What lenses do you have?

I love the clock picture. Do you edit, or are these SOOC?

I'm from SoCal, and will be in Long Beach and Venice in June. Also Arcadia and Disneyland.

Thanks for sharing the pictures!!

Picture this-grey skies, hail, rain, rain, rain, and a mix of snow! Thats what I'm seeing out my window-

This is what I would love to see-

Part of the state received 11.5 inches of rain last month, we had 9.5 inches. The farmers have gone into worry over drive because they can't plant.

Awww... I so miss Laguna. I grew up in Laguna Niguel, but spent tons of time in Laguna Beach. I even had my tonsils removed in Laguna Beach. LOL!!!

Thank you for the beautiful pictures.

Took these all in the same day. I really don't edit them. The are SOOC except for the dolphin and whale photos needed some coloring. I did reduce them in size for the forum. The originals are amazing.

Let me know when you come to town. We can have coffee and say hello.

Those are absolutely FABULOUS photos! I could spend all day there taking pictures.... I am one of those weird people who see photo opportunities in EVERYTHING!

Nice job!!!

Hubs and I will be road tripping out to the coast (Newport Beach/Huntington Beach area) again in February 2013. I can't wait!

Pretty!!! You're a good photographer; those are some awesome shots!

Makes me want to come visit sometime :P. My in-laws are in the process of moving to San Diego and it is "expected" of us that "every family vacation for the rest of our lives" will be to visit them in California . Photos like those though make me think that it won't be so bad!

(Also...not every trip we take will be to see them; I have broader horizons than that. Drives them bonkers!)
