Yeah, it’s a photoshop trick – but still… I rather like it, if only for being able to use one of my surfer photos. I was especially fond of this one as he seemed to be skating on top of the water. OK and the splash next to him is pretty cool, too. Besides, itContinue reading “On Top”

The end of time
I hadn’t made the connection before, but this piece and just thinking of Riga makes me hum Leonard Cohen’s “Dance Me to the End of Love.” Found a video of him singing itand finally figured out how to embed it! Yay! This version is my favourite,from Austin City Limits in 1988. He looks much likeContinue reading “The end of time”
Need
Memories that are shared are stronger and truer.
Time to go home
Love this one. I’m a sucker for long exposure urban shots… but then, who isn’t. This one has a bit of a twist. This is downtown Auckland shot from the MS Volendam last month.

On our way
I’m in a blurry state of mind, I guess. Busier than I’m used to… must be on my way!
Johnny Jump Up
One of the sure signs that spring is here, despite the cold that just won’t quit is the annual Parnell Rose Festival, arts, crafts, and roses, roses, roses. Yes, I took some very nice photos of some of the roses, though I was with a friend who is not used to being with a photographer,Continue reading “Johnny Jump Up”
St Petersburg Morning
We took a dawn cruise on the Neva on out second day in St Petersburg. The air was heavy and grey flecked with drizzle… then it changed its mind… I am sure I should know the name of this cathedral, but I don’t… No time today to Nanowrimo today- worked on wedding stuff all dayContinue reading “St Petersburg Morning”
