New York City on a Winter's Day

The postman or the person carrying the gunny sack must have the tune "California dreaming on a winter's day" playing on his head.  We were still living in California when this picture was taken.  2005 I think.  I used a 4 megapixel Canon Powershot 40D to capture the image.  I had to pay a hefty price to acquire it back then.  Nowadays, if one is fortunate, the camera may be scored in a thrift shop for a couple of dollars.

I mostly used the camera to document my family's activities.  You know - daughter's first recital, vacation trips, and so on.  Wasn't even into serious photography.  The original image was eventually cropped for this post.  See the unedited image below.  Not bad for an archaic point and shoot camera.

Hope you enjoy.

As I See It

Things that occupy my time nowadays: Inspiration + Junk Materials = Creativity

Hope your day is going well.

Love in Vain

Having self-doubt once again.  It's just a silly phase that I go through once in a season.  I question why I do things.  I feel like an old discarded onion that no one ever wants - dejected, rejected.  Yet when peeled I show a sensitive side.  Too sensitive that any criticism hurts.  I tried to offer the world love ... and yet the world puts me down... my offer to love is rejected ... the love I share is all but vain.  What is the point?  Vanity of vanities.  All is meaningless.  All is vanity.

Everything Peruvian and More

Some snapshots while we went to Peru and more.

Hope your day is going well.

Pictures at Exhibition ... well sort

The images should be viewed to the tune of Mussorgsky's Pictures at Exhibition - Promenade.  Believe me, it makes a lot of difference.

Hope you enjoy.
