Berlin house

A typical house in Berlin. It belongs to my mother-in-law. Photo taken in April 2009.

Rennes flower market

I used to live in Rennes where they have a spectacular Saturday market. You could purchase most everything under the sun: fruits and vegetables, fresh fish and seafood, meats, cheese, crafts and... flowers!

Photo taken in August 2005.

Arkansas bridge

This is a bridge over the Mississippi River between Mississippi and Arkansas. We took it on the way to Oklahoma City in December 2009.

Since this bridge has generated so much interest, I thought I'd add that this is the Benjamin G. Humphreys Bridge which is located on US Highway 82.

Happy Sunday! Please click on the bridge link to see more bridges from around the world!

Berlin wall victims memorial

Unfortunately, this memorial is no longer there. The land was sold to a developer who ordered the removal of the crosses. I'm glad I got a picture before it was gone. It was a nice way to remember those who died trying to get over the wall.

Photo taken in May 2005.

Potsdamer Platz

A black and white view of the famous Platz in Berlin. Photo taken in May 2005.

Happy weekend everyone. To see more reflections from around the world, click on the reflections link.

NYC statue

Taken in the Columbus Square shopping center in June 2009. It appears one part of his anatomy is quite popular. (I admit, I touched it too!).

While in Seattle my husband and I went to see a local production of Harold Pinter's The Birthday Party. It was a really good show and the set and costumes were also great!

Art Museum

I hesitated between color or black and white. I found this one to be more artistic. Photo taken in April 2007.

Qwest field

I actually took this picture from atop the Seattle Sky Needle with the aid of one of those long-distance viewers. I thought it made for an interesting effect in black and white. Photo taken in April 2007.

Bento box

This photo comes to you from Two Koi in Tacoma, April 2007. This resto was near our hotel and we went there several times. It was the best sushi I've ever had. I wish I had taken pictures of their rolls, they were really artistic. I still dream of this place sometimes...

Union station

A dramatic sky over the station. If you look at the large round window, you might see a bit of Chihuly glass shining on the other side. Photo taken in Tacoma, April 2007.

The picture everyone has.

The factory

Alchemy Goods is located inside an old shipbuilding factory. It's quite a beautiful old space with the great skylights and old wood. But I bet it gets hot in the summer and stays cold in the winter.

They make a variety of bags and other objects with bicycle tire inner tubes. I had purchased one of their ad bags online. This time I purchased one of their signature bags. I'm using it to tote my new Nikon!

Good bags

Alchemy Goods turns useless into useful! They make bags from old bike tire inner-tubes. They're very eco-chic. I visited their factory in April 2010.

Market by night

Tulips

Spring has arrived at Pike Place Market. Photo taken in April 2010.

Music

The Jimmi Hendrix memorial in Renton, WA. There are still plots available in this cemetery according to many advertisements posted on the site. I guess being buried near Rock Royalty appeals to some. Photo taken in April 2010. For more cemetery shots, visit Taphophile Tragics.

Blue wheel

A leftover wheel from the industrial days. Photo taken in April 2010 at the Gas Works Park.
