Typical street scene. Trunk Road, Chennai, South India

The India of today with remnants of yesterday… Yes, that really is a cow on the main road. And he will probably be there all day and the next. In the very same spot. Right amongst the passersby, in front of the merchant’s sign advertising cell phones and internet.

Underbelly. A moment in time….

Underbelly. A moment in time….

I had been watching the activities of the ducks in the pond for some time, camera at the ready, when the egret came flying through. It’s as if one is trying not to look up under a young lady’s skirt-shades of Marilyn standing above the street vent-exposed yet graceful, embarrassed yet intrigued, innocence but not,..

Tree in sepia

Tree in sepia

This tree, species unknown, is located on the grounds of a property in Rome owned by the Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. As the tour guide spoke at length about Mussolini and the house (Villa Torlinia, I believe) he lived in during the war, I wandered away from the group to admire this wonderful singular tree,..

This photo was taken during a family trip to Panama in the winter of 2007. The woman in the photograph is one of the elders of one of many Kuna Yala island communities who speak only their own native tongue and who live much like their ancestors have for the past hundred years. This lovely..
