Whenever I am out and about, I am always seeking new photo opportunities. On a recent drive (dog related) I passed this temple (which seems to be still under construction) along the 71 Freeway in the Chino Hills, California area. I couldn't stop to shoot beause the weather was hot and I had a pair of dogs in my vehicle...

I made a date with myself to photograph the temple in the future....
I am photographing an airshow in the nearby city of Chino, CA but, don't think that I will have time to shoot the temple on that trip...

Re: I am constantly thinking of photographic opportunities
The Wikipedia page could certainly benefit from some better photos Richard.

Re: I am constantly thinking of photographic opportunities
I noticed that! I would like to offer the temple and wikipedia my pictures when I shoot.

If I were younger, I would invest in a really nice drone helicopter with a good camera (means lots of bucks) to get aerial views of subjects like this...
As I grow older, I am constantly finding new things to photograph. There is a crew classic (I guess sculling is the correct name) taking place in Mission Bay, San Diego, next month. I plan to shoot that too... I have never shot one before and I want to use my 100-400L II lens...Last edited by rpcrowe; 18th March 2016 at 03:12 AM.

And that, sir, to your great credit, is to be applauded. Originally Posted by rpcrowe

Re: I am constantly thinking of photographic opportunities
If I'm not mistaken, anyone can edit a Wikipedia page, so you would just have to either link to current page, add something significant to the current entry, or start a new entry. Regarding the photography bug, sometimes a quick capture can suffice, also probably wasn't the best time of day to capture the structure anyway. Originally Posted by rpcrowe

Re: I am constantly thinking of photographic opportunities
That looks full of possibilities Richard. Don't hesitate.
