White Ibis Breakfast Bar

Ok, it was a dinner bar, but breakfest bar sounds better. These are White Ibis feeding on the Gulf coast near Naples, Florida. Lots of beautiful beaches near Naples, much of it private or with hotels. Still, you get some beach access points. Lots of wonderful views of the setting sun and wildlife.

Pipe Dream?

I don't know if this sign will ever come true again. But it had lots of color so I shot it. From the American History Museum in Chicago.

Chicago's Front Porch

Walked into Grant Park from the east and caught this nice view of the city during an early morning in June. Interesting view of the city from this vantage point as it is not one that is often shown in pictures. Chicago really does have a nice front porch.

Summer Palace, Beijing

I had posted an uncropped version of this shot way back on November 12, 2010. Some time later, I noticed this tighter crop was an even more interesting shot. I love how the trees still seem to be swaying in the wind. What great memories walking in this park with Stephanie. These are tourist boats at the Summer Palace outside of Beijing. I think this is becoming one of my favorite shots.

San Francisco Skyline

Great morning shot of the San Francisco skyline. Sometimes the shots just work out.

Taking a Stroll In Boston

Just a man out for a stroll on a nice summer day in Boston. The new clothes were at the cleaners so he just put on something old....
