Endless Crossing

Mustangs at Las Colinas, Irving, Texas, USA
We saw and photographed Robert Glen's bronze horses back in the late 1980's, on our first long distance trip together. The fountains in the "river" give the illusion that the horses are really in motion.

Relaxing in the Med

Mediterranean Sea, Tel Aviv, Israel
We've been to Israel many times, but until recently we'd never been swimming in the Mediterranean Sea. Sure, we dipped our toes in and waded in the water, but we never really had a chance to go swimming in the Med.

On our most recent trip, we finally got a chance to swim in the Mediterranean. This was the scene right before sunset. It was lovely!

A Busy Day on the Ramp

Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
The airport is almost always a magical place. We were heading to our gate when something about the clouds, the lined up carts, the moving aircraft, and the general feeling of the moment compelled us to take this photo. We are very glad we did, as it captures so many things at once.

Waiting for the Wonderbread

Duck, Piedmont Park, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
As children, we loved feeding the ducks at our local ponds. Now grownup, we still love to watch and feed the ducks.

Riverside Barbershop

Barber Shop, Bryson City, North Carolina, USA
We were vacationing in The Great Smoky Mountains and spotted the Riverside Barbershop next to the Tuckasegee River in Bryson City. While cutting Marc's hair, the barber said he had been there over 40 years and wasn't planning to upgrade the look since he could have done that years ago. We think he made the right choice.

Victory Salad

Vinaigrette Salad, Stone Mountain, Georgia, USA
Our friend made this salad for a Chanukah celebration. It was not only delicious, but looked so good in the bowl she chose for it.

Blue Jean Baby

Ladybug on Denim, Moccasin Creek State Park, Clarkesville, Georgia, USA
There is no doubt that the little critter above is a ladybug. What is surprising, however, is that this ladybug is crawling on denim blue jeans.

The "flower" feature can turn the everyday into the extraordinary, as we discovered in the photo above.

It is amazing to think that a camera which cost less than a week of groceries can do this! Technology has sure come a long way.

Swanky Luxe

Eyeglasses, Portland, Maine, USA
We were at a cute little basement club in Portland, Maine several years ago and spied these glasses just sitting on the bar. In a bar, it's often the case that you can't see far, with or without glasses. In this case, the glasses are blurry while the surroundings are crisp. Perhaps that is because the camera was not imbibing.


Formica Countertop, Portand, Maine, USA
The glasses above are reminiscent of the Populuxe (Mid-Century Modern era). Although not seen in the picture of the glasses, the Formica-topped bar had an amazing Mid-Century Modern pattern.

Busy Bee

Busy Bee, Los Angeles, California, USA
While on vacation, the day before we took this shot, we accidentally broke our Canon Powershot A540 of many years. With minutes to spare, we picked up a new inexpensive camera, a Canon PowerShot A3100 IS. While not as full-featured as the A540, the A3100 can take some amazing pictures. This close up of a feeding bee is proof.

Fresh Mountain Air

Lake Burton, Northeast Georgia, USA
Recently, we took a drive into the mountains of Georgia and stumbled upon Moccasin Creek State Park, the smallest state park in Georgia. Although the park is tiny, the views of Lake Burton and the surrounding mountains are lovely. We sat on a bench and then ventured out onto a dock to enjoy the fresh mountain air and beautiful scenery.

Baby Challot

Small Challah Rolls, Kfar Saba, Israel
Unlike the USA, much of the retail commerce in Israel is done in small retail shops that often have residences above. At the bottom of an apartment building on Weizmann Street in Kfar Saba is a favorite little bakery. Not much wider than the doorposts through which we enter, this jam-packed bakery is filled with fresh-baked bourekas, breakfast pastries, cookies, cakes, challah, and these cute little baby challah rolls. When you desire the taste of challah in the middle of the week and want to wait for the Sabbath until your next full size challah, these little rolls are perfect!

Hello Moon

Dusk, Alabama, USA
One of the marvels of flying is that you can see the sky unobstructed. Another marvel is that you can seemingly accelerate or retard the passage of time.

On this flight, we left Los Angeles after lunch and watched the sun set just three hours later.
Accented by the airplane's polarized windows, we were awestruck by the deep colors of the sky, the crescent moon, the last glimmers of the retiring sun, and the blanket of clouds sheltering the towns below. Moments like these are one of the reasons we love to fly.

Free As A Bird

Seagulls, Panama City Beach, Florida, USA
There is something wondrous about seagulls at the beach. We love listening to their calls and watching them fly majestically in the sea breeze.

Pulling Us In

Tractor, Coweta County, Georgia, USA
We're not real knowledgeable about farming or tractors, but something about this tractor attracted both of us to pull up and take a picture of it. Maybe it was how relatively clean and shiny it was, the apparent simplicity of its design, or how it was just parked out in a front yard. No matter what the reason was, it is part of our memories from a weekend drive.
