Busking in San Francisco


This is the BART station.

Essence of Bartoli


I love the weird way this picture looks. The way you get a shot like this is to just keep shooting in a steady stream. Technique is not involved. If I think of any painter it looks like, I will repost.

Neon carrots


These amazingly cute neons are in a window on College Avenue in Berkeley.

San Francisco

On your trip to visit the Bay Area be sure to visit the Ferry Building and its surrounding area.


This is the door to the Slanted Door restaurant.


This is a gelato store inside the Ferry Building. I tasted their lemon and strawberry ice creams and they did not achieve the wonderful bitterness of the true Italian gelato.


There is a statue of Ghandi.


And this very nice view of Oakland.


This picture is of the Villancourt Fountain, of which I am very fond. Its subtitle is "explosion in a heating duct factory."

Art Objects in Albuquerque

They definitely like metal work in Albuquerque:




Metal dinosaur.


I especially like the iron horned toad.




Then there is this veranda made of cactus bones.


And this decorated car.






Georgia O'Keefe was just painting what she saw.


Here is a lady blowing glass and some of her works.
