Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – October 18, 2008
I really appreciate the contrast of textures.
In my neighbor Randy’s backyard, last year.
That’s a grape vine on the wall. Randy shares his grapes with us.

I took this photograph almost 6 years ago. Baby geese crossing the road with mom and dad … A sure sign of Spring.

Kissing Sculpture

San Diego Embarcadero – April 15, 2009

It is one of the famous moments in the history of photography: a sailor kissing a nurse called V-J Day in Times Square. The late Alfred Eisenstaedt, one of the 20th century’s great photojournalists, simply turned around as he was dashing down the street, looking for the right shot to capture the exuberant moment. He saw the embrace – and the picture itself is now history.

Now, meet the monstrous 25-foot, 6,000-pound sculpture by J. Seward Johnson that evokes this same kiss and carries the tacky title Unconditional Surrender. The stutue is near where the U.S.S. Midway Aircraft Carrier is docked.

Notice the group of people on Segways.

Three Hydrants

Composite created April 15, 2009

As many of you know, I am into photographing fire hydrants. They vary in shape, style and color and the background can add to a unique composition. These are three I photographed on my recent trip out West.

You can see my first composition, years in the making, here. These are mostly in Pennsylvania and the tri-state area.
