Thousands of Items

Advertising on the side of a building.

Mumiy Troll

Concert poster on a telephone pole.

Yellow Circle, White Up

A drive-thru arrow on the pavement. I suppose it's lucky I didn't get run over by someone in a hurry to get their fries and a shake.

Me - #3

Third in a series of weekly self-portraits. Maybe this is my version of "The Thinker". Or, given the trouble I stir up with my thinking, I should be called "The Stinker".

Up the Sunny Wall

Outdoor light fixture on a sunny day.

Purple, Black and Yellow

City colors.

Padlocked Pipes

I'm a sucker for visually repeating items.

Barbed

Rusty barbed wire. See it in the country to keep cattle where they belong. See it in the city to keep people where they belong.

Wall and Window

Sunny day, grungy wall, strange thing in the window.

Me - #2

Second in a series of weekly self-portraits.

The Original

I sure love corn chips in chili.

Gridwork Siding

Evening shadows of telephone wires across the gridwork siding of a Portland house. Click for larger view.

Spiral Bulb

Modern spirals of an energy-efficient light bulb.

Me - #1

First in a series of weekly self-portraits. I already love how this is stretching my creativity.

To Cheer February

A yellow pick-me-up.

And a quick note of thanks to all of you who subscribe to this blog -- especially to those who comment. You keep me going. Thanks.

Ankeny Shadow

Long afternoon shadow on the wall at Ankeny Square in Old Town Portland.

Just Grate

Portland's ubiquitous grates around trees at the MAX train stops.

Light Ball

Light fixture like a looming eyeball. At the Old Town / China Town MAX train stop in Portland.

Glass Mosaic

Stained glass window. Modern church buildings tend to be visually dull by comparison.
