Lights on Broadway never dim.

all the rushing all night long static

No more beautiful architecture than this.

Up above the clouds of NYC this beauty shines on.

LIC, NYC, Gantry Park, iconic Pepsi sign.

A little splash at night to feel the vibes in the city that never sleeps.

Radio City never gets old it represents so much over so many decades in the Big Apple.

all the lights we love to see in the city that never sleeps

Crazy to think this peek into the galactic is painted backwards. The only celestial body painted correctly is Orion. Vanderbilts, who built Grand Central said it was done that way ‘as if God was looking down into GCT.’

sunflowers reaching to bloom

peachy fresh calla lilies with lime green points! Stunners.

takes us back to the 1940s b&w noir films….

a delicate dance between rain and petals

Some people just stand out. And Shaz is a standout. Passed by British actor Shaz Duncan Brewster in Central Park when she was in town for the Premiere of Enola Holmes 2. Graciously grabbed a few frames.

Slot canyons of the West are overwhelming to photograph. A gift of nature-of water, wind, sand. How can rock be as fluid as silk. I see roses, stems, blossoms all within these rocky fissures, splits and ruptures. Striated rock faces like liquid. So soft and strong.

Magic happens

the male and female attend diligently to their eggs and are extremely protective.

it was a gift to watch the snow monkeys in the hot springs, warming up, drinking, drooling. I waited a very long time for this fine large male to turn fully towards me.

The snow monkeys of Nagano are as close to being human as I have ever seen- wild yet familiar. Their behaviors appear incredibly human. The touch they provide to the young, and grooming. Their aged faces reveal so much of their lived experience - injury, resignation, patience, curiosity, and their behavior reveal a solid social hierarchy.

I feel so much from this monkeys’ expression! Almost as if she is saying ‘oh brother!’ Resignation and questioning at the same time. So human.

what is going through your mind?

ropes, macrame, sunlight, stairs, Greece

Quintessential Lifeguard Stand, Umbrellas and the Flag

the crashing conflict of two waves colliding! Fabulous!, Maui

I continue to replay in my mind the feel of the vibrations and rhythm

2500 years and counting - Baobab trees store up to 32,000 gallons in their trunks. Majestic doesn’t get close.

the age and strength of this bower of protection humble me. Sanctuary is found here.

Contrasts

skyscapes reflecting

the constant motion of living

holding on in the flow

Catching the air against the blue sky and the beginning of the sunset light as they turned in unison added the punch this shot required.

Central Vietnam - this man used his fingernails as his tools to slice bamboo and weave baskets, lanterns, matts and more. His hands were like a vice on my wrist.

Day of the Dead starts innocently enough….the comparsas and more….

Rarely does the moon set as the sun rises. In this case the moon and the sun shared the horizon simultaneously.

The sun added the mauve and peachy tones to this spectacular moon setting.

All my Rye Beach and Playland shots contain the historical original towers, original pool, original carousel rooftop, original pier.
