The Sky's Wine Red

If you don't happen to know, the title of this picture is a paraody (if that's the right word) on a verse of the song Wine Red by The Hush Sound, who I saw in a concert last week. This is just an old photo taken on this year's Chinese New Year.

United We Sit

I know, the color's gross. Although most of the people visit the temple are Chinese, you can't forget that they all came to/live in America for a reason, whether it was for democracy, the nice Californian weather, etc.

The Gentle Dragon

Just when I thought I didn't take any pictures of the lion dance that were worth posting on my blog because I sat so far away from the performers, I get near the "lions" AFTER the dance and wait for SOMETHING to happen. I saw how little kids were petting the lions and waited for the lion to be in a good position where I could capture its bright features and a cute kid to come up and pet it. This is the one. Happy last day of the Chinese New Year celebration!

*For the first time in my life, I am hoping for rain. You MIGHT see why later this week.

Together In Peace

I really like this photo. I tried to look for something...I guess beautiful and pleasant looking to photograph. I just saw the lanterns and took one random picture, not even steadying the camera. I notice I say "I" a lot in my blogs. How conceited of me.

Last Year's New Year

Happy New Year! So I don't know why Blogger is being a little evil. It doesn't allow me to add pictures using the dimensions that I put. I think it's working now, though. I took this photo last year at the Hsi Lai Temple during Chinese New Year.
