These photos were shot in 2011 from a short trip to the Philippines. We went on a day out to Laguna, about a two-hour drive southeast of Metro Manila and visited Rizal Shrine. The two-storey Spanish-colonial style house is a reproduction of the birthplace and family home of Jose Rizal, the national hero of the Philippines. The original House was destroyed during World War II.

This is the second set of photos from an unplanned day out in Santa Barbara. I used the last few frames left on the expired roll of Fujifilm Neopan SS 100 that’s been in the camera since April.

The mission is the 10th of the 21 religious outposts built in California from 1769 to 1833. These photos were from an unplanned day out to Santa Barbara. We walked around the church garden and cemetery, but didn’t have a lot of time to see the church interior. The staff informed us that the church will be closed to visitors for the rest of the afternoon, as they were making preparations for a wedding.

These photos were shot in 2012 on a visit to Mission San Fernando, located 25 miles north of Los Angeles. This mission is the 17th of the 21 religious outposts built in California from 1769 to 1834. We walked around the complex, and visited the museum before making our way to the church. As you exit the church, there’s a pathway that leads to a memorial garden and burial site of legendary comedian Bob Hope.

For this walk, I explored a section of the route that I take on the way to work. The auto repair shop went out of business a few years ago, and the building looked run-down with its facade covered in graffiti. But the building also has beautiful murals painted on its walls.

Matsumoto Castle is also known as the Crow Castle due to its black exterior. The climb up the steep wooden stairs was a bit of challenge, and the stairs became narrower as we climbed higher into the keep. Once we reached the sixth floor and had the time to catch our breath, we were rewarded with a beautiful view of the castle grounds.

These are a collection of images from last year’s Labor Day road trip. I took these photos on a week long trip that started in Los Angeles heading to Yellowstone National Park. On the journey back to LA, we made stops in Salt Lake City and Las Vegas. The photos are arranged in no particular order, I did not take any notes during the trip and I have a hard time recalling the names of most of these places.
