Just Shoot Pics

My 18th Magazine publishing is of Disneyland's California Adventures Pier before the Revamp. Budget Travel Magazine has partnered with Guru Shots to feature the Best Travel Photos in the world. Of course, Disney being my happy place, you shouldn't be surprised to see one of my photos entered in these contests. Longing for the good old days.  I've also been featured in other magazines recently, but haven't had a chance to share. So check back often to see more! Sarah Kay

 This particular building has won me so many awards. The picture you'll be looking at is of an 1800's Kit house in Austin, Texas. It has actually appeared in a couple of small movies. The owner is renovating it back to its former glory. I took pictures of this building from different angles displaying the beauty in different lights.  So once again, Guru's teamed up with another magazine, this time Fstoppers, to feature the best photos in their Impressive Architecture Challenge.

Isn't she just beautiful! Maybe I will be able to take a trip back there and photograph it after the owner finishes renovating it. Sarah Kay

Here are some pictures from the Animas Forks Ghost town. Keep in mind, you are looking at homes that know over a hundred years of history, winters, sunsets, successes, and failures. The thought of these buildings standing that long in the harsh winters they get at around 11,000 feet. 😳 If only you traveled the roads in and out... it's truly mind-boggling to me.     Sarah Kay
