recent pics from my trips


sometimes i enjoy eating a simple bowl of noodles - preferably one with a pound of beef



a high-ceiling'ed office building lobby in an industrial part of town



truth be yold, i actually dont remember what this was, but i do remember that it was very good



a wall of glass hearts forms a display showcase in a museum of contemporary art



a costumed department store employee in a trendy region handing out samples



a clothing shop storefront late into a weeknight



a ferocious lion preying on shoppers in the middle of the city



the usual hotel room with a view high above the city



i guess i came too early - or more likely it was too hot for lunching in the open and muggy air

a subway line runs through a small department store plaza on a sunday afternoon


a familiar view of a city skyline with surrounding southeastern mountains to the right
