Monday I posted a color version of this photo on Instagram and FB. Thought I would post the black and white version.

Ivy
Ivy seems to be able to grow anywhere, including bridge supports.
Wandering Photographer

Trains, planes and automobiles.
Maternal Grandfather
This is a photo of my maternal grandfather at age 11, taken in 1913. His name was George and he was Dutch, part of a family that were early immigrants to New York.
Blog Stat
Just a quick note: My photoblog just surpassed 30,000 views. Thanks to all who have taken the time to visit since its inception in February 2009!
Shadows on the Bay, Seattle
Partial skyline, Seattle.
Along the Tracks (Con’t.)
One of the questions that comes to mind, when viewing and shooting street art is: what does this say about our society/culture? Some people view it as vandalism while others view it as a form of contemporary art. Because the palette is in or near a public space does that change the dynamics? Or. like the images I have been presenting, are mostly out of the view of the public, but on a BNSF railway right of way does that change things? To get this space both the artist and I have to trespass across those railroad tracks. The palette in these works is just a retaining wall, so maybe the work enhances the large, drab concrete space?
I guess it begs the age old question: What is art?
We all have to answer that for ourselves, I guess.
Seattle Rail Yard
From the Lucille St. bridge, looking NW. Some of rail lines leading into Seattle. Some of the spurs off of these main lines are not in use today as industries have relocated outside the city limits or just closed down.
Discovery

Excited to announce a new genus of tree:

In our Yard
An early sign of Spring in our backyard.
