I’ll admit that this is an old fav. I took it in 2006 at a Viking market. These two were entertaining the kids.I just love the action in this shot. Just goes to show don’t mess with a Troll :0)

I shot it using a Canon S3 IS.

Looking around near where I live I often stumble across places where there is evidence of different eras. This drain, or culvert, was clearly constructed well before the road that passes over it was paved. No contractor today would use such materials; much too costly.

“Every day we should hear at least one little song, read one good poem, see one exquisite picture, and, if possible, speak a few sensible words.”

This image was taken in Times Square, New York.  There was some sort of bicycle brigade going on and this group leader kindly stopped these cyclists to let this man cross the street with his young daughter.

I always feel like I’m cheating a bit by posting images taken by my father. But he really liked this image when he saw what I did and asked if I was going to post it. So what could I say? No? I don’t want to disappoint him. I think he should start his own blog. But, then, he is my dad! I have to be supportive.

Anyway, he went back east in December of last year with my grandparent’s ashes. He buried them in the sand of Coney Island where they first met around 1938. Funny story- well, not ha-ha-funny- but when they wanted to get married, my grandmother’s father said “over my dead body”. And two days before they got married, he died. Major heart attack!

Let that be a lesson to anyone ever tempted to use that phrase again.
