Odds and Ends from Wednesday and Thursday

Just things I like....

I am surprised at how little traffic there is in the Tower District during the day.

I truly love some forms of "graffiti"...

So, was I inside looking out or outside looking in?

Am looking for a new decor for the driveway...I hope the neighbors like it!

22 June 2011

So I am stepping "outside of my comfort zone" and doing some urban shots today. Well if you can call Fresno urban, I guess that's what I did. In any event here are a few "B&W" and scenes from around town. Oh yeah, I did find a flower to shoot too!

This I like as the "Urban Jungle"......

And just what does a 106° day in the Central Valley LOOK like?

Oh, yes....the flower. It is from a Trumpet Vine:

15 June 2011

I would love to say that I have been busy...but why lie...just real lazy. However I have been taking pictures and and soon going to remove this blog and open a new one. There is/are good reason(s) behind such a move, and I will have the new blog open BEFORE I close this one down. Besides that, you are not here to read but to look! and so for your pleasure.....

Seems to be a lot of dragonflies this year. I believe it is due to the standing water from the great rainfall we had this winter and spring.

With the exception of the flower below, which I took on the wine trail weekend in May, all the flowers are from the backyard.

Speaking of the backyard, I did manage to get the BBQ resurfaced. I have a great TILE MAN if you need him, he did the tile work on the counter and the backsplash, and Bob Fire, Cathy and myself did the stone work around the base.

And all this leads to one thing...food, outdoor seating and a view!
