Oh deer.




I managed to snap a picture of this pretty buck tiptoeing on the edge of the Grand Canyon one morning. Neat thing about getting a shot with a camera is that the animal lives.

A more silhouetted shot right out of the can. Still works.

Kayti At Primo - Final Week


Kayti, one of the very best baristas at the Primo Cafe in Fallbrook is leaving after 5 1/2 years to start her new career as a cosmetologist in Carlsbad. All the Fallbrook Redneck Shutters will certainly miss her cheery smile and colorful sense of personal style.

Robert's Rules of Order and Chaos

We have added a provisional member this week and are considering another, a woman that would break up a seriously male group, a good thing! This blog is a forum that was first conceptualized by Sauerwein and I and we never gave much thought to rules of any kind, both being fairly anarchistic sorts with our own personal problems in regards to dealing with authority.

Be that as it may, I think that this here shutter blog is progressing nicely. I like the work that we are posting, and don't know of any small village photographic corollary of its kind. Ken was asking about parameters for joining and here are (is?) my two cents. It is a blog for the Fallbrook Photographic community and as long as the work is good and doesn't monopolize the website, the more the merrier.

The site germinated from two eggs - the local color photographic show that we had last fall and our saturday morning meetings at the coffee shop.  Ken suggested, and I second, that members should at least occasionally hang out with us and talk shop on Saturday mornings. What do you think?
