Lonely Wolf Seeks Adventurous Red Riding Hood
Tired of prowling through the woods alone. Seeking one daring, cloak-wearing risk-taker who doesn’t mind a little fur and fangs.
About me:
- Strong, independent, and howls at the moon for fun.
Excellent sense of direction (unless there’s a woodcutter involved).
- Has all my own teeth
- Enjoys long walks through the forest, sneaking into grandmas’ houses, and howling meaningful ballads about life’s mysteries (and maybe an occasional hunger pang).
About you:
- Loves the color red, because I can’t resist a bold fashion statement.
- Enjoys surprise visits to Granny's house—bonus points if you can bake.
- Must appreciate a wolf with layers: I’ve got a wild side but also a soft side (especially around cuddly grandmas).
Let's skip the huffing and puffing, and build something real.
You bring the basket, I’ll bring the charm.
Swipe right on this Big Bad Wolf—promise I’m mostly harmless. ;)
San Francisco, CA
05-05-22
I didn't use the drone in San Francisco. Upon coming into town, there were signs posted not to fly drones anywhere around the Golden Gate Bridge, and I'd been disappointed that I was forbidden to use my drone all along the coast, at State Parks, or on the beaches in Humboldt County.
One thing I did do I haven't done since 1975 or so was to ride up the elevator to the top of Coit Tower, on Telegraph Hill, in northeastern San Francisco.
The windows up there were clear and clean, and this photo was taken on a nice afternoon looking east toward Russian Hill from the observation deck of Coit Tower. You can see a bit of the Golden Gate Bridge and the twisty part of Lombard Street on the upper right. The street running through the center of the photo is Filbert Street, with Washington Square Park on the left and Sts. Peter and Paul Cathedral on the right.
The tall buildings on the left are the Cloister Apartments and the Royal Towers.

Big Sur, California
A series of three rocky points along the Big Sur coast just after sunset. The one actually called Rocky Point is in the distance. The rocks themselves are granodiorite that was created long ago somewhere far south of here and which has since slid north on the Pacific Plate.
Cette fresque a été réalisée lors du festival « Points de Vue » organisé par Spacejunk Bayonne depuis 2017. Deuz est un artiste marseillais né en 1979. Il se passionne très tôt pour le dessin et découvre avec lui, le graffiti et la bande dessinée. Influencé par ces deux univers, il commencera par faire du graffiti dans les rues de Marseille au milieu des années 90. A l’aide du crayon, du stylo à bille, de l’aquarelle, de la bombe aérosol et de marqueurs Posca, il réalise des portraits, d’africains pour la plupart, inspirés de la culture Hip-hop et qu’il appelle familièrement ses " tronches ".
Trois visages montrent le thème préféré de l’artiste, touché depuis longtemps par la discrimination. Ce travail est situé quai de Lesseps sur les murs de l’ancien Centre Communal d’Action Sociale. Centre qui sert actuellement de lieu d’accueil aux migrants en transit à Bayonne.
This fresco was produced during the “Points de Vue” festival organized by Spacejunk Bayonne since 2017. Deuz is a Marseille artist born in 1979. He developed a passion for drawing very early on and with him discovered graffiti and comics. Influenced by these two worlds, he began by doing graffiti in the streets of Marseille in the mid-90s. Using pencil, ballpoint pen, watercolor, aerosol spray and Posca markers, he carries out portraits, mostly Africans, inspired by Hip-hop culture and which he colloquially calls his "faces".Three faces show the artist's favorite theme, long affected by discrimination. This work is located on the Quai de Lesseps on the walls of the former Communal Center for Social Action. Center which currently serves as a reception center for migrants in transit in Bayonne
Low, late near-Spring light bathes the points and frogs at Metra's A2 Tower as distant bilevels at Union Pacific's California Avenue Coach Yard glow.

This pretty frog has smooth, bright skin, generally green, although there are also specimens that are brown or yellowish. A characteristic trait is the black line running from the edges of the eyes, with horizontal pupils, to the back of the eardrum. It also has suckers on the toes of its front and rear legs.
Its cryptic colouring, blending with the vegetation where it lives, is a strategy to foil predators.
Its area of distribution ranges from North Africa to southwest Europe. On the Iberian Peninsula, populations are concentrated in specific points of Andalusia, Catalonia, the Basque Country and Minorca. This species is quite generalist, living in all types of temporary and permanent bodies of water and a large variety of environments.
They primarily feed on insects as adults, while the tadpoles scratch the surfaces of aquatic plants or walls to absorb detritus, algae, etc.
To attract females during the reproductive period, the males emit their croaking songs en masse. The female lays 140 to 680 eggs in small clusters of 3 or 4, which stick to plants under the water. The tadpoles hatch after 8 to 15 days, completing metamorphosis 2 or 3 months later.
