Tailors of India 1 comment
It’s not hard to find someone to mend a shirt or sew a button on in India – I loved all the craftsmen plying their trade in the open.

This muslim neighborhood of Delhi has the most colorful bazaars I saw in India.
Traffic in India 2 comments
Traffic in India was amazing – despite the lack of adherence to rules, it flowed like water. If you want to make a U-turn, you just pull into oncoming traffic, which slows down without any discernible annoyance. If you want to cross the street, you simply step out and traffic will veer around you (scary, but it works!).

“Take a ride on the Reading” Leave a comment
After visiting the Reading Terminal in Philadelphia you’ll never look at that Monopoly chance card the same way again. The train station has been converted into a market for regional foods many years ago, and I enjoyed a couple of lunches (cheese steak!!) there this past week while attending a conference at the convention center next door.

Found on quiet street in DC neighborhood while walking to work — a vintage Indian motorcycle.
CA highway scene Leave a comment
Saw the quintessential California highway stereotype last week in San Diego: a blonde in a convertible with her lapdog on her lap. Priceless.

This bunny is almost as hard to find as Waldo. Found while walking Mario in the woods near our house.

Serenity in DC 1 comment
I know that title is an oxymoron, given what is going on in this city these days, but it didn’t seem to bother these two as they enjoyed a quiet Friday evening sunset over the Lincoln Memorial.
Cherry Blossom Time! Leave a comment
Walked to the Mall after work on Friday and captured these photos. A wonderful time to be in DC, except this year it’s unseasonably cold. Nevertheless, the water’s edge was packed with tourists (i.e. camera-toting) and locals (i.e. picnicking).

Found this record store in Falls Church, VA. It reminded me of the store described in Nick Hornby’s ‘High Fidelity.’
Frost Drops and Stalactites Leave a comment
Captured these leaves with frozen drops of rain on a recent walk in the neighborhood, using my umbrella to ensure a uniform background. The second shot reminded me of stalactites in a cave.

Caught this pug in a pensive mood as it meandered through the house.

Icicles in the air Leave a comment
It’s just cold enough that the rain freezes instantaneously – time to bundle up in front of the fireplace and not leave the house!

I could have been an album cover designer 2 comments
Instead, I’m happy to have simply inspired others. In this case, Fall Out Boy’s new album coming in January. Clearly, they must have seen my post from August featuring a hotel lobby in New York. 🙂
Here is their album cover, and my image below:
