A BIT OFF TOPIC
A few years ago I took interest in a book of prints of which was my Father's -- he gave it too me and I have preserved it thru some hi-rez scanning. The subjects of Germany pre-date WWI.
MonoRail
The Seattle monorail was a bit -- hmm... rickity -- for the lack of a better word. It was evident that the system hasn't really been updated since the Worlds Fair.
LePanier
I have some good memories of when I would travel to Seattle when I was at 2/75 Ranger in Ft. Lewis. The drive of 45 minutes was worth it upon stepping into LePanier french bakery at Pike's Place.
COFFEE
We would have been at a loss without some good brew in the Emerald City -- welcome to Clover.
Seattle - 2009
After all the shooting, at the end of the trip - this, one of the last photos taken, is my best. Sitting at the edge of the water at Lowell's, waiting for lunch and reflecting upon the last few days - wonderful. Taken with the tiny Canon SD780is - now a staple of my travels.

SUNNY AND 67
This was one of the few Sunny and close to 70 deg days we've had left.

Talk to the hand
HamBone
This is one of my most favorite photos -- ever -- and it's ironic it was taken in a place of which I dispise; Iraq. It was a grab shot -- after a gun run we had to take the trucks to the motorpool for repair - Hambone drove and I rode shotgun; in the GreenZone. Sometimes HamBone lead on to be my friend - and sometimes he didn't. I always tried to be HamBone's friend.
HamBone was a lineman - after surviving Iraq - and some 1800 missions in the red-zone - he died 5 months after returning from eletrocution after grabbing a hot wire. At the wake he was dressed with white gloves becuase his hands were so burned; so I heard.
Footprints in the sand
I just can't get over these scanned slides - they are wonderful.
Waterman Ink
Now when was the last time you saw a shelf full of ink ??
Micro Composition
Sam Abel described micro-composition when he discussed
his mantra of the photograph, at an event here in SLC.
See the bartender -- that's micro-composition.
