Fish for Sale

Every weekend there's a street fair with vendors selling everything from flags to hardware items.  It's a great way to get some exercise as you have lots of aisles to roam if you want to see everything.  This metal fish was waiting for the right person to take him home.

Light at the End of the Tunnel

The old Spanish fort in Cartegena, Columbia is laced with tunnels.  Places to store weapons and other paraphernalia of war and a way to move about without having to be exposed to cannon and gun fire.  They were very dark and small.  The Spaniards must have been short people.

Desert Pinks

I was driving home this afternoon and as I approached the stop sign I looked to my right and something unusual caught my eye.  It was pink and feathery.  I quickly turned the corner, parked the car and walked back with my camera to see what it was.  I don't know the name of this plant, but with the sun behind it, the delicate pink tones stood out so soft and delicate.  Without the sun hitting them that way, they were just another plant.  You never know when oportunity will strike, but I always have my camera ready.

November in the Desert

We don't always get spectacular sunsets in our desert but tonight it was a real knock out.

Biroc

When the weather is foul in the fields of France, shephards and workers can seek shelter in this centuries old rock and slate hut called a "Biroc".  It doesn't have any amenities but at least it's dry.

Out for an Afternoon Drive

I was in Palm Springs today celebrating my friend Patty's birthday when we noticed this classic beauty driving around the neighborhood.  And the weather was absolutely perfect to have the top down so they could enjoy warm sunshine.

Bookseller and Pooch

For the past  two years I've had lunch the day I arrive at my favorite bistro "Cafe de Flore" on the Left Bank of Paris.  And across the street sits this bookseller and his dog.  Occasionally he gets up and walks around but always winds up at the feet of his master.
