  • Color of the Sun

    Relaxation. For most of us the water does it. We get heated up in the sunlight, cool off with a dip in the pool. And, if you are smart you just let yourself float and drift around like this guy. I’ve seen him in the past. I waited and watched, I showed some restraint and…

  • Passing the Time

    This is as great example of “my picture.” A small picture that has a little bit of personal meaning attached to it. It is also a picture I made on the way to some place else. Here’s a bit of backstory. I photographed the second line that I posted yesterday. Parking is always a big…

Actually, this guy probably isn’t Santa. He’s just a guy who lives in The French Quarter having an early night…

  • It was Hot

    I enjoy traveling by train so much so that even when I’m not traveling, I sometimes visit interesting train stations. I really enjoy going to the main train station in Bangkok, Thailand. It is called Hua Lamphong and is in the Pathum Wan District of the city. It was built in and 1916 and serves…

  • Little Pictures

    For yesterday’s post, I offered up some Hong Kong images that were pretty much general views of the city that were photographed in my style. I wrote that I would show you a little different, more local, view of the city today. So here it is. Six images that are what I call “little pictures.”…
