Octahedral Symmetry at Paradise Cove

Ok, so I ripped off Erik's idea, who ripped off Uelsmann's, but hey it was fun trying it out.

Reflecting at Paradise Cove

Boat vs Hydrant

They are now friends, finding more in common than first realized.

Paradise Cove Morning Java

This morning we had 'Shackleton Dark, Dark Brew',  in honor of Jo reading the book 'Endurance -Shackleton's Incredible Journey'

Black Friday From My Truck Window

Driving into town I spotted these men apparently taking a Black Friday 'shopping break'.  Took the pic as I was driving by.  The reflection of the guy driving toward me was a special treat.  Not running into him because I wasn't watching the road, was an added bonus.

Sunglasses

Leaving the Puyallup Fair with my brother-in-law Troy we came across Mr. Sunglasses getting ready to close up shop.  I liked the silhouette but before I could get my camera out, he backed away.  After waiting for him to return, I finally just walked up and asked if he'd stand there again for this cool picture.   He barked 'NO!!!', so we left him to his cheap sunglasses and bad attitude (although I probably wouldn't have been too happy either trying to sell sunglasses on a dark, rainy night).  

Down the way I realized I had to go back and try again, so I worked my way around with camera ready. Finally he moved near the tarp for a few seconds and I made this picture.  I GOT YOU, MR.SUNGLASSES DUDE!  Ok, it wasn't as good of a silhouette, but sometimes you just take your small victories wherever you can.-ha
ps- (you can click on the picture twice to see it bigger)

Atlanta

Funny how you take a photo but it doesn't really move you, then a couple years later you run across it again and say 'Hey, that's not so bad!   This is one of those for me.
