Would You Ride That?


Knott's Berry Farm Parking Lot January 2012 - Shot with Canon Rebel XT, Canon 50mm f1.8,  Fujicolor Superia 400

And my answer is a solid "Hell no!" I'm too big a wuss to go that high and I can't take spinner rides. Unless you want to see me spew. I took this shot on my Highway 39 adventure. I was attempting to capture the essence of the Highway and this is one of the last few places to view that. The place I would rather have shot was the old drive in Highway 39 that both me and Billy had the pleasure of going to before that damn Walmart and Lowes were built there. Pardon me for being lazier than hell in regards to the dust spots.

Let's go ......... Right!



The end of Beach Blvd in Orange County, January 2012 - Shot with Canon Rebel XT, Canon 35-80mm f3.5-4.5,  Fujifilm Superia 400 (just a roll I picked up at Walmart)


I had read that Highway 39 went up into the mountains but had never seen it, at least in my current memories.. I drove all the way from the start of the highway, Beach Blvd and Pacific Coast Highway, which begins at Huntington Beach city beach and ends near Crystal Lake in the San Gabriel Mountains. A very scenic trip. 

To follow highway 39 to the mountains, you must turn right at the intersection above Until you reach Harbor Blvd/Fullerton Rd. Then turn left and merge onto the 60 West going towards Los Angeles. Then get off at Azusa and turn right and follow the road up the rest of the way
