Bicycle Ride to See the Sunset

“Texas Sunset” Cedar Park, 2021
The weather was nice this evening, and I thought I might get a chance to see a nice sunset, so I hopped on the bicycle and headed down to my go-to sunset spot. Tonight’s show did not disappoint! And I’m enjoying shooting with the Fujifilm X-E4 and 27 mm f/28 lens very much. The photo above was actually about 5 overlapping images, stitched together in Adobe Photoshop.

To Houston and Back

On the way back from Houston, I stopped by Banana Leaf to pick up some Malaysian food and also got some Mochinuts. Everything was delicious!

I also set the GoPro on the dash and recorded a “TimeWarp” video of the drive home. The clouds look way better in the video than they did in real-life. I have the GoPro set to use its own color-profile, and I like the results very much!
I hope you had a great day! またね~
Cloudy Day Bicycle Ride

“Cloudy” Cedar Park, 2021
I love when the skies have plenty of interesting clouds, and it looked pretty bleak all day, but as the afternoon was turning into evening, the clouds starting breaking up revealing a bit of sunlight. So I grabbed my camera, hopped on my bicycle, and went for a ride. I’m very happy with how the photos turned out today, and the video is a fun way for me to relive the ride.

Sunset and Beautiful Sky

“Sunset over Suburbia” Cedar Park, 2021
I glanced out the window and noticed the sun was making a late appearance after hiding behind an overcast sky all day. I started taking photos from my backyard, but thought I might get a better image from a wide-open area that’s not far from the house, so I hopped on my bike and headed over. I was not disappointed!
It seems like a long time since I’ve seen a nice sunset…
Here’s the short ride over to take the photo.
I hope you had a good day! またね~
Sunset from the Highway

“Texas Sunset” Hwy 290, 2021
こんにちは. How’s it going?
Today’s photo is of the sunset and clouds that I enjoyed as I drove back to Austin from Houston. Often when I make this drive, it’s already dark, but today I left a little earlier which worked out nicely! I even set up the GoPro to take this “TimeWarp” video:
I hope you had a nice day! またね~
Texas Sunset Snapshot at the HEB

“Texas Sunset” Cedar Park, 2020
Today’s photo is a snapshot of a very common sight (at least for me). It’s a sunset from the HEB parking lot. I guess it’s just timing and the really cool clouds we have in Texas, but I get a ton of these shots. I’m very happy about this. 😀
Speaking of HEB (technically H-E-B), I think its near legendary status in the Twitterverse is rightly earned. When I first moved to Texas 20 years ago, I would have said… nah. But now when I travel back to Los Angeles and visit a Ralphs or Vons… wow, those supermarkets just cannot compare to HEB. Not only are HEBs bright, clean, usually with wide aisles, and renovated regularly, but their own brands of food are awesome, especially the Mi Comida line. My HEB has so many Mexican cheeses that are unfamiliar to me, but are all great. And the HEB “Creamy Creations” ice creams are generally awesome.
They also have a reputation of being a good employer, and their community outreach programs are also well-regarded, like their relief efforts after Hurricane Harvey and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of these factors, I’ve definitely joined the legions of HEB fans!
