Windy day, Big dune!

Greetings from Idaho.

I have been here for one month, and didn't play around this area.
Last weekend, Ethan and I decided to go to big dune!

"Reportedly the tallest single-structured sand dune in North America rises to 470 feet (140 m) high above small lakes. The dunes at Bruneau Dunes State Park are unique in the Western Hemisphere. Other dunes in the Americas form at the edge of a natural basin. The Bruneau dunes form near the center. The basin has acted as a natural trap for over 12,000 years. The dunes may have started with sands from the Bonneville Flood about 15,000 years ago. The prevailing winds blow from the southeast 28 percent of the time and from the northwest 32 percent of the time, keeping the dunes fairly stable. Unlike most dunes, these do not drift far."

Golden Gate Bridge adventure and Sunset

"One of the best-kept secrets in San Francisco was once accessed only by brave souls willing to scramble down bluffs through poison oak and pricklers. Today, Marshall's Beach is easily reached by the eco-friendly Batteries to Bluffs Trail courtesy of Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy. Wooden stairs and dirt paths wind down to the most private beach in town. Bring a picnic and dine on views spanning the Golden Gate, from Land's End in San Francisco to Marin's Point Bonita Lighthouse. The views are so good you might just be inspired to strip down to your knickers. Yep, like many secret beaches, Marshall's Beach is favored by the clothing-optional crowd. Enjoy the sunset (or full moon)." ---- from weekendsherpa.com

Beechung's big family photography session

Bee-chung and Shiao-Ching invited me to their house for a big family photography session at end of last year.
It's my pleasure, but really challenging for me. Totally 11 persons, 5 kids and 6 adults. The weather is cold outside and we have to stay indoor.
Great thanks for their cooperation, I mean both adults and kids.The pictures are great finally.

Let's sneak peek those great family moment.
