Captured during a one-day business trip to Philadelphia. Not much time for photography except while waiting for my train at beautiful 30th Street Station:
A 1-day business trip to Los Angeles didn’t leave much room for photography, except for a few shots of downtown:
New office building in DC – I get dizzy looking at it.
Even a mundane hallway feels artsy at the Renwick Gallery in Washington DC.
Or you might miss sight like these window washers high above K Street in DC.

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.
Found this record store in Falls Church, VA. It reminded me of the store described in Nick Hornby’s ‘High Fidelity.’
Captured on my commute this evening:

Stopping at South of the Border (between N. Carolina and S. Carolina on I-95) is like a trip back in time. This giant truck stop is definitely a 50’s throwback! Click on any pic to see them all in slideshow format. I especially liked the restaurant shaped like a sombrero.
Found this fortune-telling machine (and scale) in Selma, NC:

Squint a little and see how the shadows turn into stairs (or maybe you see something entirely different?). Â I enjoyed the angles and the play of light and shadows on a recent walk through New York.

Near Wall Street in lower Manhattan, a few buildings remind us of how it looked in the early days before skyscrapers took over the island. The second be looks like a precursor of the Flatiron Building to me.

Captured this factory in New Haven while crossing the Pearl Harbor Memorial Bridge:

Loved the juxtaposition of the old and new, and how the buildings seamlessly connected visually.

Yes, just about everyone knows these and they’ve been photographed from all possible angles – but when you’re in Paris it’s hard NOT to take pictures of some of the icons that make this city so lovely and unique:

Captured these while descending towards LaGuardia airport in New York on a gorgeous sunny summer day.

Well, maybe it’s the commute TO hell, given that this is a shot of the platform going from Long Island TO New York.

This gas station sits at the outskirts of our little town, and doesn’t seem to get much traffic, but it keeps hanging in there, off the beaten path and not far from large-brand gas stations.

This house, built in 1760, is located on Main Street of our little town of Clinton. Unfortunately it’s in terrible shape and I always hope, when I pass it, that someone will take pity and restore it to its former splendor.
