A late afternoon at the beach in Carlsbad, CA. This is one of our (wife and I) favorite places. Find your happy place. This one is going on my iPhone so I can be in my happy place anytime I want.

  • Eric E. Anderson 2 years ago
    That's what I am all about... 4 seconds of awesome.
  • Lucasberg (Joey) plus 2 years ago
    Oh man, now that was funny. I should have said those 4 seconds remind me of one of my happy places the Wedge. I used to walk up and look to the right toward cylinders and get a view almost like that.
  • Eric E. Anderson 2 years ago
    Yeah, now that's what I am talkin' about! Thanks bro.

  • Dang, I need a happy place right now..for sure.
  • Eric E. Anderson 2 years ago
    Happy places are easy - everybody's got one. The trick is taking the time to go there...
  • yeah that's true. i need to pencil it in.
  •  
  • So yeah...

  • Eric E. Anderson 2 years ago
    Thanks Matthew... those shots were taken by my wife - she is new to photography. Since I got a video camera, she takes the stills while I take the video... gives her something to do. She is really doing great!

    Beautiful. Those seagulls at the beginning are awesome, is that a hysterical laugh I hear coming from them?
  • Eric E. Anderson 2 years ago
    Thanks - yeah, those two beach goers were throwing food into the air... seagulls go nuts.

    Super nice. Could I ask you for some seagulls sound ? I'm trying to make something about the sea and in my area, seagulls are hard to "catch".
  • Eric E. Anderson 2 years ago
    Though the seagulls were going nuts when I recorded, the sound of the ocean drowned out there song. So, I added it back in during post. I can get you the clip if you need it - came right out of GarageBand.

    love the fast shutter stuff, works really well with the stark contrast :)
  • Eric E. Anderson 2 years ago
    Thanks wob - the seagulls turned out way better than I thought. Though with the high shutter speed, there was barely any color left, so I desaturated and pumped up the contrast for effect.
  • wob ler 2 years ago
    dramatic without drama, great stuff - must also be nice to have found the love of your life! all your ducks appear to be in a row :D
  • Eric E. Anderson 2 years ago
    Finding Tracy is the best thing to happen to me in my life, no doubt. As for the ducks, well the jury is still out on that one :)
