McDonald's in Scottsdale hosts vintage car shows every Sat night and this couple regularly displayed their cars. So they got hitched. Where? At McDonald's of course. They contacted me to videotape it. Word got out and TV reporters and a crowd came out too. This is a frame from the video of 12/11/99. A 90 second video of this can be seen if you go to the set of My Videos.
Willie G's is one of the restaurants along Harborside Drive in Galveston. The boat in the foreground provides tours of the bay to visitors to the area. I have been on the harbor tour and the dolphin tour. Both are recommended.
If and when I return to capture this scene at night, I would adjust for that distracting blurred sign on the boat. I missed that totally.
Poseidon's Throne, Olympic National Park, Washington
Nikon D800, 14-24mm, 1 seconds, F14, ISO 200
This is from Olympic National Park's wild coastline. It was a grey day, but incredible texture in the stormy clouds, so I choose a B&W rendition for this seascape.

Have great day everyone!!
Miro's is a new spot on the Promenade at Portobello, overlooking the beach. It replaced a chip shop that used to be on this spot, and which I only every used once (it was rubbish, never used it again! So not missed!). Not tried this place yet since it opened, but I like that as well as the interior space part of the front opens up to serve people passing by along the prom, or wishing to sit on the seats next to the sea wall.
World's largest McDonald's is shaped like a giant box of french fries and is found in Orlando, Florida. In addition to offering a unique menu that includes gourmet sandwiches and desserts, this two-story McDonald's offers a 25,000-square-foot play area, as well as more than 60 arcade games. It is located just off world-famous International Drive.
Parrot's beak (Lotus berthelotii) is a perennial plant endemic to the Canary Islands. It is either extinct in the wild or persists as a few individuals. Here is glows in the morning sun in my San Francisco garden.
Happy Easter to all of you who celebrate it! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

That's life, that's what all the people say.
You're riding high in April,
Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune,
When I'm back on top, back on top in June.
I said that's life, and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks,
Stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down,
'Cause this fine ol' world it keeps spinning around..
(Frank Sinatra - That's Life lyrics)
Humayun's tomb (Hindi: हुमायूँ का मक़बरा, Urdu: ہمایون کا مقبره Humayun ka Maqbara) is a complex of buildings built as the Mughal Emperor Humayun's tomb, commissioned by Humayun's wife Hamida Banu Begum in 1562 CE, and designed by Mirak Mirza Ghiyath, a Persian architect.[1] It was the first garden-tomb on the Indian subcontinent, and is located in Nizamuddin East, Delhi, India, close to the Dina-panah citadel also known as Purana Qila, that Humayun founded in 1533. It was also the first structure to use red sandstone at such a scale [2][3][4] The complex was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1993, and since then has undergone extensive restoration work, which is still undergoing.

He's not a spaceship!
So, instead of sifting through the big, convoluted dystopian future backstory on this guy, I'm gonna share with you an interesting fact: Booster Gold's robot companion Skeets is made of Waverider's metallic flesh! Fun!
That head feels a little too positive for a guy who looks like he's always scowling, and we really, really need a better flaming head piece that isn't welded to specific heads, but this's probably not gonna get confused with any other non-Waverider character, so-!
The Devil's Den waterfall was more of a trickle than a waterfall. We were able to walk on rocks that would normally be covered by water. But where water was flowing, it was very pretty.

.......Romero's Grocery......whatever..... drink Coca Cola In Bottles! Ghost sign down in Socorro, NM. I always think it's a shame that the little Mom & Pop businesses just can't compete with the big boys :(....... and I bet you it was quicker to be served in this little store than queuing in a supermarket line...even in the serve yourself line!
St. Joseph's Church in Leicester, designed by architect Tom Wilson in 1968. It's open plan, with a central altar and in the most blasphemous of shapes - it's circular!
If you've been paying attention, you may remember Wilson's work on another church across town - www.flickr.com/search/?w=78164632@N00&q=st%20peters
It's where my parents were married but a couple of year before it was built in the brick building next door that's now the church hall
i believe this is an austin farina ( a compact car from britain) - and it's mounted in such a way that it actually spins around in the wind...
Soemmerring's gazelle is a rare antelope restricted to the Horn of Africa. The only place we encountered them in Ethiopia was in Awash National Park. They are listed as vulnerable by the IUCN.

This is my first professional haircut since before the pandemic!! As it grew out, my DD would braid it and then would lop off the braid as it got longer. Now it’s short and shiny and me!!.
Am taking artistic license and claiming this for my posting for ANSH scavenger2 “needs repair” because my hair was scraggly and uneven and desperately needed a fix!!….
……And now I’m taking it out in favor of a more conventional repair need
Mom's Garden. So called because when we first bought the house she took over that bed and planted a bunch of things, most of which are still alive or come back every year. It is a nice little way to remember her. Taken on a drizzly morning.
This was my best showing on interestingness, 5/14/2006. It actually went to #1 for a little while, before falling back into the 200's.
Finally found out what this is. Felicia amelloides. Common names: blue felicia bush, shrubby felicia, bush felicia, blue felicia, blue marguerite, blue daisy bush, Paris daisy (Eng.); bloumagriet, blou-astertjie (Afr.)
A winter sunrise from Saint's Harbour on Guernsey's south coast.
I must give a very big credit to local photographer Nick Despres for inspiring this shot. Nick is a real pioneer of seascape photography, taking beautiful large format images, long before the digital revolution, and before I had any real interest in photography.
Although I never go out to copy another photographer's work, I must admit I was heavily inspired by one of his photos which appears on out local stamps and I wanted to take a shot with a similar composition but with the waves breaking over the platform. This is the result of a lot of attempts to capture just the right conditions of light and tide.

I recieved a phonecall from a friend last night.... at 5pm.... sheepishly asking if it was too late to have a cake for her daughter's birthday today. Normally I would have said I couldn't do it... but for friends.. we stretch ourselves.. SO.... baked last night... and decorated today. My husband helped with two turrets... and the turret windows... and his endless suggestions on what I should do & how.... Well...... thank god we don't work together full time!!! LOL LOL

My son's school auction theme was 80's. I donated this platter to our schools auction. It was presented in the dessert auction portion of the event. I had a lot of fun making this, it brought back so many memories.
Toronto's last men's hatter. David Rotman (whose father, Israel Rotman had opened the store in 1934) had already mostly-retired as a result of a stroke by the time I took this in 2007; he finally closed up for good in 2009.
A peach is a type of fruit that is different shades of orange in color and fuzzy. Peaches contain a pit at their core, which is a seed for a peach tree, is a deciduous tree, native to North-West China, Peaches and nectarines are the same species, even though they are regarded commercially as different fruits. Nectarines have an orange center and no fuzz, while peaches have white centers[citation needed] and very fuzzy skin.
Wistman's Wood has a chaotic jumble of trees and boulders. It is quite tricky to produce a photograph that does it justice.
This is the last of my girls for a while I have to get some house work done too. YAK!
She has just been dressed and actually now she has hair along with flowers and rubons. She needs a saying, a cabachon flower on her hat and a few more goodies but for the most part you get the idea.
Class has been fun, didn't think I would get this far yet here I am. Thanks to all who commentes it is appreciated. Hope you all have a great time creating your lovely ladies. m
