A street photographer in NYC put together a line of tee shirts, etc. with some interesting statements. I liked this one.

At Portland’s original Rose Garden and Fountain, two of our grandchildren. Before moving to a larger plot of land, just west of downtown Portland, OR., the original Rose Garden was located in NE Portland, where this photo was taken. Dipping your feet in the fountain pool is a good idea when the temps have been hovering around 100!

I’ve posted one or two of these images previously, but never together. Thought it would be nice to put them altogether, in sequence.

Looks a bit like a TeePee, but is actually a fish net.

Scanned from a 35mm print in 1970. Location: East Oakland, CA. A friend I was staying with had just remodeled her bathroom and had not yet disposed of some of the debris. I found this in her backyard and of course, was immediately thinking of a photo opportunity. Seems my interest in subject matter has not totally changed over the past 45 years :-).

Garfield School: 1970 and Today

On July 9, 2015July 9, 2015 By Fred KingIn 1970, Architecture, buildings, Garfield School, San Francisco, Scanned from 35mm PrintLeave a comment

Scanned from a 35mm print taken in 1970; just below Coit Tower on Telegraph Hill, San Francisco, is the Garfied School. In the far background you can see the Golden Gate Bridge. The other two images show the Garfield School today, officially named Garfield Elementary School. Adjacent to the school you can see a two-tiered outdoor playground (with students playing) for the students.
