How strange a structure is our Olympic stadium? Just check out the expression and listen to the questions as any unknowing tourist (ours were friends from NY) inquire about this bizarre creature reaching into to the heavens. Even more ridiculous and confusing is when we, who grew up during its construction, try to explain the..
Typical, yet not so typical, corner balcony in Montreal’s Plateau area. Love the green against the blue, brown, white and the repeating squares and hearts amongst other geometrics in the wood, glass, bricks and metal. Never forget to look up when walking the streets of our beautiful city.
This picture was taken in Nassau, Bahamas from the beach while looking away from the ocean to the backs at the homes along the strip. It was in a more private area, away from the popular, more crowded beaches and tourist area. I was attracted to the weather worn paint and texture of the wall,..
This photo was taken on the grounds of Boothill Graveyard, located near near Tucson, Arizona one of my favorite locations in the American southwest.

Oh, and did I mention the heat, dust, cows, honking etc, the motorcycle driver sans helmet, the lack of lanes,..
The day before leaving for a three week family holiday to Africa, after deliberating for months and months, I finally took the plunge and purchased my first digital SLR camera, a Nikon D50, compatible with my 28-80 and 70-300 mm lenses. Needless to say, despite 18 hours of travel, I just barely glanced through the..
