When traveling up the Pacific Coast Highway late last summer with my west coast damsel, we stopped in the small lovely city of Morro Bay in San Luis Obispo County founded in 1870. This lovely marina, the strong cobalt cast in the sky and the small formations in the background caught my eye. This harbor like many on right off Pacific Coast byway was full of harbor seals, just sitting out in the sun.
When at Yellowstone, we went to several of the lookouts for different views of the canyon. While Artist Point seems to be the most popular, for photography, I prefer this view from Lookout Point.
when we stayed at the Ravel Hotel in Long Island City for my daughter's wedding...
The Queensboro Bridge, officially named the Ed Koch Queensboro Bridge, is a cantilever bridge over the East River in New York City.
The NYATCW was in operation at what was then known as No. 401 Vernon Avenue in Long Island City, from 1886 until 1968. Of the forty-eight major terra cotta manufacturers in the United States, it was the only such plant situated in New York City. The NYATCW supplied architectural terra cotta for projects throughout the United States and Canada. Materials supplied from this location were used in constructing more than 2,000 buildings. Among the company’s most prominent contracts included Carnegie Hall and the Ansonia Hotel. Terra cotta became popular as a building material in the United States beginning in the 1870s and enjoyed a long tenure due to its flexibility, versatility, and durability.
When we visited the Grand Canyon earlier this year, we experienced a couple snow storms. The canyon rim was a bit treacherous at times but it was still beautiful.
When the Rocky Mountaineer crested Soldier Summit, storm clouds were rolling in from the west, and light flurries were beginning to fall. The train had 50 miles of track and 3000 feet of elevation to drop to reach Provo Yard and tie up for the day.
when the garden has deconstruction occurring, collateral damage happens, and stuff piles up.
we need to clean up.

When we visited the lavender and sunflower fields in Valensole we stopped for a lunch which I'd prepared earlier at home before we left. We unpacked a couple of foldaway chairs and table from the back of the car and sat down and enjoyed the grub and the view. It might look like we were bang in the middle of a lavender field but we were in fact on a little track which appeared to be unused and was between two lavender fields. You can see a car in the distance to the right and they were doing exactly the same as us.
Enjoy the week ahead! :-)
When I was trying to photograph a Weasel, I heard an Owl calling and looking up, saw a Little Owl on a distant wall with something it had just caught.
I was hoping another Owl might appear but there was no sign.
When out looking for the Hermit Warbler, this gem dropped by. It was eagerly searching all the trees for food
A highlight at the end of 2022
When something like a soul becomes initialized and folded up like
Paper dolls and little notes, you can't expect a bit of hope
So while you're outside looking in, describing what you see
Remember what you're staring at is me.

When I received these Cloisonné chopsticks as a gift many years ago, I thought they were quite lovely. It was only when I started taking photographs with my macro lens that I realized the minute changes in color on each flower and leaf. Perhaps we should all have magnifying glasses handy so we can really appreciate the smaller things in life.
When i was walking in our beautifull holland i saw this buzzard on a branch, he was not afraid at all and i could get really close to it. which gave me this awesome result :D
Years ago I bought a pack of 'Happy to Serve You' disposable paper cups in N.Y., to bring home a litlle Morning-New-York-Style to the somewhat slower countryside mornings in Denmark.
The flash was on automatic, and didn't go off on most of the images, but in this one, the coffee looks just as golden as the first cup tastes :-)
After driving the length of the INRD and seeing a whole lot of nothing, they spit two trains out the opposite ends of Jasonville, Indiana late in the afternoon within minutes of each other.
Before I caught the Cummins demonstrator heading north, this train to Indianapolis headed south with a great trio of power. Note 25th Anniversary heritage unit #9025 behind 9012, and Iowa Pacific-painted CEFX SD9043MAC #111 bringing up the rear. I believe the 111 is back from a short stint on the Texas New Mexico railroad, minus its IP markings.

Dig if you will the picture
Of you and I engaged in a kiss
The sweat of your body covers me
Can you my darling
Can you picture this?
Dream if you can a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and you
How can you just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that′s so cold? (So cold)
Maybe I'm just too demanding
Maybe I′m just like my father too bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied (She′s never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry
Touch if you will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside
You′ve got the butterflies all tied up
Don't make me chase you
Even doves have pride
How can you just leave me standing?
Alone in a world so cold? (World so cold)
Maybe I′m just too demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father too bold
Maybe you′re just like my mother
She's never satisfied (She′s never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry
How can you just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold? (A world that's so cold)
Maybe I′m just too demanding (Maybe, maybe I′m like my father)
Maybe I'm just like my father too bold (Ya know he′s too bold)
Maybe you're just like my mother (Maybe you′re just like my mother)
She's never satisfied (She′s never, never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other (Why do we scream, why)
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry
When doves cry (Doves cry, doves cry)
When doves cry (Doves cry, doves cry)
Don't cry (Don't Cry)
When doves cry
When doves cry
When doves cry
Don′t cry
Darling don′t cry
Don't cry
Don′t cry
Don't don′t cry

When a few flowers died in each of two bunches of flowers I was given, I merged them together and think the colours go well.
Day 17 post-op yesterday and I took a walk down the road, with Ray and 2 crutches for company (although I can now manage fine with 1 indoors) my target being to the local church and back. It was slow, the traffic a bit noisy to somebody unaccustomed to walking out but there is a handy seat near the church.
Once home, Ray checked the distance and found I had walked just over half a mile - well pleased!
when i slow down, it's easier to choose kindness, patience, and understanding. when i pay attention, it's easier to work from love not fear. in this moment, there's no urgency—there's time to pause, breathe, and be.
King of road racing and Queen of elegance. This 1938 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Lungo Berlinetta Speciale. was built for competition (the C) and yet would transport a couple at very high speed in complete comfort and class. In many ways, the 2900B Lungo Berlinetta was the finest closed car produced in the pre-war era. Built with race-proven engineering and with a style of unsurpassed elegance, these fastback Alfas are among the finest cars in world.
On the track, the 2900 competition cars benefited from a decade of Alfa Romeo progress and became the most successful of their time. A trio of 2900As placed first-second-third at the 1936 Mille Miglia, while three specially built 2900MMs accomplished the same feat at the 1938 edition. The decision to make a road-going variant of these winning designs must have been easy.
Touring of Milan was responsible for almost the entire production of 2900B bodies and their exceptional ‘Coupé Superleggra’ or ‘Coupé Ultraleggro Aeroprofilato’ took advantage of the Lungo chassis and exaggerated it with a huge rear overhang. In total, Touring constructed only around 10 of these masterworks. The 2900 chassis was outfitted very similar to the competition cars.
The engine was similar to the Tipo B unit but was made from new castings in aluminum instead of magnesium. They retained a 10-main bearing crankshafts that sat in white metal babbits. The cylinder head was cast integral to the block with hemispherical combustion chambers and domed pistons. The valvetrain and axillary devices were all gear driven.
The men responsible for this model were engineer Vittorio Jano (designer of Alfa Romeo's P-Series Grand Prix racers and road-going sporting models) and body stylist Felice Bianchi Anderloni (founder of the coachbuilding firm Carrozzeria Touring in Milan). With the help of chief designer Aquino Gilardi, Anderloni helped pioneer Superleggera (super light) body construction. Instead of using heavy frames and rigid axles like so many other competitors, Alfa Romeo employed an intricate latticework of lightweight but rigid steel tubes that formed the framework for the elegant, hand-fashioned aluminum body shell. Shapes were tested by attaching felt strips to the body and the car was photographed while moving to record how wind flowed over and around it.
The original 8C had won LeMans 4 years straight, and this car is a barely detuned racing chassis. What a way to tour Europe!
When I was a child we had lots of these redcurrants in our
garden, but I never liked them. Now when I found them in an abandoned garden I loved them.
