Humans of Alberta St. #4
Tattoo, stilts, ukulele and washboard. Two people/one theme-red.
Humans of Alberta St. #2
Head apparel seems to be the theme today. Straw Hat, butterfly hat and the ever present balloon hat. This once a month street fair on Alberta St. runs from May till Oct. every year and stretches about a 18 blocks along the street.
Humans of Alberta St.
The Last Thursday of June on Alberta St., NE Portland.
Mondays Flora
The next door neighbors, on both sides, to my daughter’s home in NE Portland have clematis plants that I clandestinely shoot every summer.
Spotted in Red Hook
An Airstream and an American flag. Americana at its best.
Sunset on the Hudson River
Taken adjacent to the Circle Line Pier on Manhattan, an attempt at catching the sun go down.
Dew Drops, etc.
A few more images from our backyard.
More Backyard Blossoms
Even squash have a cool blossom! Just showing some of the flora activity in our backyard this summer.
This Years Day Lilies
A few views of this years day lilies from around our backyard. They do help brighten up the garden and yard.
This Years Iris
A few views of the irises from our flower garden.
Two Views
Two views from behind the main complex of buildings that was the Fisher Flour Mill. The ‘mud’ puddle was more than just water and dirt. The green, slimey stuff gave off a really nasty odor, very reminiscent of the Gowanus Canal smell I have experienced. Like death, it is a very unique smell that you never forget.
Fisher Flour
Electrical conduit to nowhere and a crumbling pier-shot through a cyclone fence. Two of the cruise ships that travel from Seattle to Alaska every summer are in the background.
Monday Flora
I needed a break from the Fisher Flour Mill. Today, something to brighten up the Seattle doldrums.
Fisher Flour Mill ( Con’t., still )
More vegetation in odd places,, broken windows and signage. Apparently King County Solid Waste Management Division is the current owner. On my to-do list is to find a contact inside the organization to field some of my questions.
Fisher Flour Mill ( Con’t. )
Camera that could be operational. Space between buildings and vegetation that seems to grow in the oddest of places.
