New Gallery in the House

It’s October, so that means it’s time for a new photo gallery here at milestonkin.com. Those keeping score will note that this is probably the 39th change to the gallery since I launched this little website all those years ago. What can I say? I’m fickle!

I’ve switched from Flickr which I generally hate to Apple’s MobileMe gallery which has a simplier more intuitive interface and gives a lot more options to the viewer. You can still access it by clicking the “Gallery” link at the top right of this page or by going directly to http://gallery.me.com/milestonkin. You’ll still preview thubnails of recently uploaded photos on the right hand toolbar.

It’s the little changes that make the big differences, don’t you think?

Photos

I’ve been on a couple of photography trips in recent weeks with my friend Perigil in an attempt to flex my photography muscles and also get some use from my SLR. All the photos are in the gallery, but I thought to post some direct links here as well.

We went to Joshua Tree National Park, about 120 miles east of L.A. three weeks ago and got some great shots of the Mojave dessert scenery, the titular Joshua Trees as well as some old abandoned mine equipment from the gold prospecting days. See the photos by clicking here

Then today we visited The Huntington Library & Botanical Gardens in San Marino, about 15 miles away on a gorgeous L.A. spring day. Many flowers were out in bloom and we also took a wander through the portrait gallery. Photos here

We are hoping to make this a semi regular thing so more photos to appear in the gallery, gallery.milestonkin.com in the near future.
