Same window, different stuff

Cat in the Window

There's something about the light in winter, late afternoon, Missouri that you rarely see out here in California.

Venice at Night

Wow, I am finally uncovering the potential of Camera Raw.

Regatta

Lake Garda, Italy

SOMA

Another Magritte-inspired scene

More Dead Plants

Fall Color

Every time I take a photo like this people say stuff like, "Why are you looking at those dead leaves?" Little do they realize...

Tea

Tea Room - Beijing

Petite Pastries

If only I could go back in time and eat one...

Switch to CFLs

Monk's Boots

As seen at Tashilunpho Monastery in Shigatse, Tibet (glad I wrote that one down)

Lily Pads

More from the Conservatory of Flowers.

Solar Tradeshow

The 23rd European Union Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference in Milan, Italy

I love this photo because:
1. The giant inflatable sun is shining on the LCD solar panels (and this booth is out of control)
2. The cocky businessman in the center foreground is probably making a deal that will alter the future of the PV industry (or making plans for dinner, take your pick)
3. The Italian booth babes (in yellow) are bored out of their minds

More Carnivorous Plants

The one with the teeth is a Venus Flytrap, the other is a Sundew - the little droplets are actually a sticky glue that traps insects.

Carnivorous Plants

Pitcher plants trap insects that fall inside, then digest them and absorb the nutrients. Yum!

Cinder Cone and Field of Ashes

Well, I'm still getting the kinks worked out, but you get the idea.

Aspen, September, Lassen Volcanic National Park

Windows at the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers

In the last room of the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers

I take relatively few photos of strangers, but when I walked into a convenience store in Lhasa this little girl started pointing at my camera and saying "picture! picture!" then struck the cutest post I have ever seen. So here she is:

Nighttime River Scenes


These are a little bit silly, but I think they look like music.

San Francisco Pride Parade

Prayer Flags, Tibet

Pier 28

Favorite photo from Bay to Breakers

The appeal of the abandoned building
this one is a favorite

More from the walk around the Marin Headlands

On Hill 88

Point Reyes

One day these grapes will be a fine wine

Some interesting shapes...
This is in Santa Cruz, CA - the same as yesterday's photo.

Funnel Cake?

Again with the kites

Don't try this at home

Alex is dancing with the kite

Baker Beach

Some photos of Easter Eggs

Smile, there goes the freeway. Clean and Simple.

Stairs

It always feels like cheating to take pictures at the De Young because you can't say "Look what I saw and captured for you," it's more "Look at this beautiful thing someone designed... I took a picture of it."

Water and Ice

Wine Barrels

Newberg, MO
This is an old hotel that burned down quite a long time ago.

Moving away from duplicates, can you guess what this is?

Astoria, Oregon
Windows along the docks in late afternoon

There have been complaints...

So in response to peer pressure I will get over the fact that the photos are not as large as I would like them to be and post anyway.

I have great ideas for how I would like The Overlook to look, but lack of skills to make it happen or time to acquire those skills.
