Cheers to my Dad, he always brought extra joy on the Fourth.

The Baltic sea is fairly calm, being pretty much a huge lake. This leads to low erosion, and stony beaches.

No idea if the above is true or not. Just made it up. I need to rationalize why the earth enjoys hurting my feet

All of the most logical truths seem to be made up...

That's beautiful

Everything is until a bear shows up, then it’s every man/woman for themselves.

Jasper will always have a special place in my heart.
The place, not the person

He was useless!

"Someday" I'll get up there. I'm about 8 hours south of Banff. Would make an awesome week of motorcycling

Jasper is beautiful.

And no one like Jasper. To hell with that guy.

One of my favorite places in the world. The tide pools here are fantastic, but the tide was in.

I’ve seen very beautiful picture taken by people who’ve been riding through the mountains.

Things i like when using B&W film - Pave (cobbles), train/tram tracks, wet streets, shadows

Alas, it wasn't actually raining when i took this, but there was still some sheen.

Well now you have to share.

I looked for the shirt, but I think it is in a box still. But here is the image.

The shirt has text, "A Romantic Enters the World" below it, and the name of a local classical music coffee house, The Rimsky-Corsa Coffeehouse. You, I think, would love Rimskey's. Haunted Victorian mansion, and all the tables are themed after different composers. One table slides randomly into the wall unless you catch it. Another is a large, round table that slowly rotates, so you end up with someone else's coffee. And the bathroom...heh. I will try to find a picture of the bathroom. The music is usually string quartets, or someone on the baby grand. Great coffee, and some delicious desserts. It is as Portland a place as you will find in Portland.

All of your photos are so well executed, but I especially love the last few B&W photos you’ve posted.

Thank you so much. They were taken in Edinburgh, so lots of stones (and rain) so the b&w worked very well.

Oh wow I love that pic! I really like the depth play with the blurry background, and the deceptively intricate (stone? rock?).
Lovely
