In 1923, the Hendee Manufacturing Company changed its name to The Indian Motocycle Company "– no ‘r’ in ‘motocycle’ when the word was first used with the name Indian."
I saw this one in Jersey City, NJ in October.

Trying out a new photo sharing app called Dropico. The rain is one of many effects that comes with the app. For comparison, here's the original photo.
A montage of one of the new buildings in the Innovation Precinct in Christchurch. "213 Tuam Street stands as a landmark of the Rebuild and a signifier of change. The 5-level, 5-star Greenstar building was designed by leading architecture firm Jasmax and originally constructed for Vodafone, now One NZ." - www.cbre.co.nz/properties/office/details/NZ-CCH100448/213...
Even though he was crossing the East River in 1856, coming across the Hudson River on Jersey City's Paulus Hook Ferry in 2021, reminded me of these words from one of my very favorite poets, Walt Whitman:
"...Crowds of men and women
attired in the usual costumes,
how curious you are to me!
On the ferry-boats the hundreds
and hundreds that cross,
returning home, are more
curious to me
than you suppose,
And you that shall cross from
shore to shore years hence
are more to me, and more in
my
meditations, than you might
suppose."
This poem was "published as “Sun-Down Poem” in the second edition of Leaves of Grass in 1856 ..."
Calibrachoa, sometimes called Million Belles, or tiny Petunias, come in all colors. These are in a hanging pot in my garden.

Week 25 : 52 Weeks the 2025 Edition : Panoramic
I don't remember seeing these fungi growing in my yard before. I've no idea what they are, either. They surprised me because of their hiding place behind a trunk of a tree which was cut down two years ago, due to a pest called southern pine beetles, and their destruction of the tree. The fungi remind me of marshmallows cooked over a camping fire.
Got up this morning in a playful mood (I love being retired) and was definitely thinking "out of the box" - picked up the Nikon and put on the 10-24, which I haven't done in a while. Sipped some coffee.
The light streaming through the windows invigorates. The sun was shining brilliantly, although the air was heavy with humidity, but it wasn't raining (yay) and the sky was void of cloud cover (rare the past month).
Shooting with a wide angle is fun! Hit the inside of the house first and then went outdoors, but those shots can wait for another day.
I kept the fun going with Photoshop... Five For Fun.

Post processing was done the same on all images. Each is as framed and reduced to 180dpi from 300. No other images or color were added. Toning, saturation and filters were all used in the same order for each photo. Spot saturation and toning on each for finished results.

A fun, post-processing edit on this image from Columbus Circle in New York, January 2009.
I remember we had a very welcome hot drink here at 'The Shops' after walking in the cold for hours. And while resting, we enjoyed watching the dynamic and eye-catching changing colours on this light installation.
The Shops is housed within the Time Warner Center (now the Deutsche Bank Center) which is a soaring 2.8 million-square-foot landmark with stunning views of Central Park. It opened in 2003.
Outside in the background, is Edward Durell Stone's 1964 building for A & P heir Huntington Hartford. The facade seen is a modern addition and a controversial one.

Yesterday, Brad ordered a dSLR camera [Canon 450D] for me. I'm not sure when it will arrive. Today, whenever I thought about it, I feel thrilled - like a kid, waiting for Christmas: I can't really imagine what it will be like - I'm nervous and so excited!
Hope everyone's enjoying the weekend.
Happy Purple Saturday!
