Lake Chabot & Home Grown Carrot (Cellphone Photos)

On July 23rd, 2018, I went for a walk in Lake Chabot Regional Park in Castro Valley, CA. I took a few photos on the walk with my cellphone to share with you. I also took a few photos of a carrot I grew at home for my rabbit. I thought it looked pretty interesting. Hope you enjoy the photos.

UBC Botanical Gardens (Part 1) - Vancouver, BC

From 7/17/2013 to 8/2/2013, I took a road trip from the SF Bay Area to Vancouver, BC, Canada. Half of the trip was spent driving up the west coast. On my trip, I visited many famous places such as Seattle, Butchart Gardens, Mount Rainier, and much more. Obviously I got many coastal shots and many places that isn't as famous. The reason I am posting it now is because the high amount of photos I took equaled a high amount of processing time. I took a bit over 2000 photos on the trip. After stitching the panoramas, compositing the HDRs, and picking out photos from the repeats, I have a bit over 1000 photos to show you guys. The photos will be split into parts. I will link you to the previous and next parts on each post just like I did with my Death Valley National Park photos and my Yellowstone/Grand Teton National Park photos. Hope you enjoy viewing this chain of posts!
