cat and bird

cat behind a graffiti-ed storefront window


stare-down with a seagull

greenery

just some miscellaneous and very green shrubbery

city scenes

I guess that the type of scene depends on the city - in this case, one of the older cities in japan.


somewhere on the west coast - a man seems to almost blend into the artwork.


old building somewhere in northern nevada.

storm

Lightning storm on a nearby mountain range

panoramas here and there

old spanish mission


180 degree view of a beach



large pond overgrown with lilies

something more colorful

moored boats by a pier on a coastal california town


you may know where this one was taken


flag at pearl harbor

titled abstracts

bay leaves


cinnamon sticks


rice in a jar


paper lantern


light and shadows on ceiling


fleece jacket

water pics

seen off the Pacific coast - two ducks making waves

body surfing off the coast of Oahu

splashing in a southland swimming pool

north by northwest

pictures of the coast line from a cruise to the north (note - these four pictures are not mine)

pictures of glaciers that, hopefully, will be there for more years to come


and another


cruise liners lining up in Juno

pictures at an exhibition

browsing the galleries at a local museum near the waterfront


nice to find an empty gallery and get a leisurely eyeful - so many pretty things


this one, on the other hand, is a little spooky.

white and fluffy things

I forget where I took this - maybe Hawaii, perhaps somewhere in Madagascar ?

I dont remember this one either.

Nor this one.

panorama

View from the peak. Kennedy town and western to the left, Central, and Admiralty to the right.

View from Diamond Head. Blue water of the Pacific Ocean to the right and to the left.

Marine layer pushing into the City in the afternoon.

japan

On the tarmac at Narita. There is a light drizzle and men working outside.


Subway - waiting for the train.



Lunch - tempura on rice set.

quiet time

Leaves underfoot on a hiking trail near Waimea falls.


Birds under a bridge near another surfing spot close to home.


Ladles at a watering hole for thirsty worshippers at a temple near Nara.

store fronts

i

Benetton on a busy thruway in Kyoto.


I believe this is the Levi's storefront on Union Square.


And this is the Lotto Young Plaza storefront in downtown Seoul.

one more

it's a photo of an x-ray exhibited at a nearby science museum.

marine life

sea anemones in an exhibition tank at a local aquarium.


decent-sized mirugai for sale at a stall in tsukiji fish market. Mouth watering, no?


not sure how much marine "life" there is in this picture taken one morning at the Noyangjin fish market - but how do you cook that thing on the lower shelf ? I dont think it'll fit in any pot of mine.

lunchtime

in the ferry building, I find, is often a happy occasion. Here, a casual seafood eatery does a good business with a Saturday crowd. Just behind me, an oyster bar and restaurant, where a dozen on ice really hit the spot, for me.

took a walk downtown

looked to my left and saw this scene - reflections of skyscrapers on a mirrored building facade in Central. At least one of these buildings should be familiar to you.
