Happy New Year!  Wishes of light, love and good health to all of those who follow my blog, inspire my photography and/or in someway have touched my life this year!

I normally do a 52 week “best of” recap at year end, but between my Tumblr and Instagram pages, that seemed redundant.

Instead, I’ve picked a handful of my favorite moments of 2013.

Concert, small venue: Philm at the Gaslamp in Long Beach, CA, March 28, 2013

Road trip:  Salvation Mountain and Slab City/East Jesus in Niland, CA

Time spent in nature: Camping in Joshua Tree, June 2013

Top three favorite new albums released in 2013 :  Pearl Jam/Lightning Bolt, Tomahawk/Oddfellows, Sevendust/Black out the Sun

on the horizon in 2014:  I’m looking forward to lots of great concerts and also plan to publish my 2nd photography/haiku book in the Spring!
