Through the Window: Edinburgh Reflections
A single, solitary table inside an empty office. A glass jar sits on the table, waiting for the next business to come and rent the room. Maybe a parting gift from the previous occupant?
Shadow Play on a Scottish Street
Shadows on a wall as the sun sets in Edinburgh. I had hoped to go up Calton Hill this evening, but the Beltane fire festival is happening there tonight. I have to be up early in the morning, so I decided not to go, but now I already regret not going! I’d have stayed far…
Architectural Waves by the Sea
It’s been a few years since I’ve been in Malaga. This one is from November 2018 on a lovely sunny day. I love the “Palmeral de las Sorpresas” pergola is an eye-catching structure along the promenade.
Cycling Through Evergreen Street

Paws Up for Treats in Cork
I think there might have been something special in that paper bag and that husky wanted it. 🙂

Cobbles, Light and Shadow

Sunset over Valencia
The sun lit up the clouds over Valencia in Spain one evening as rush hour continued.
The source of inspiration
Sometimes it’s the simple things that inspire us, like a banana. And a yellow roadside bollard in the distance.
