Clay pottery at a street exhibition. This "carbon" blue is a hue I just can't take my eyes off!
This picturesque house and farm were conquered from a rocky hill. Took 3 years.
Atop an arid, impenetrable, stony hulk of land, each inch of land must've been hard fought and won.

So when the going seems tough - always lean on the future.
I love the lines and shapes in this photo!
The steering wheel of a 1954 Rolls Royce Silver Dawn. The beauty of craftsmanship is equalled only by the intricate controls.
To me, this image pays an ode to modernization - its showcases so subtly, how electronics and fly-by-wire wizardry has eased our lives.
I'd have needed a 300 page manual to drive a car like this!
That said, I am forever enchanted by the beauty of the creations of the bygone era - and this is an excellent example of the handiwork of the '50s
A bun? A Bagel?
I don't know what it was under all those seeds, but I do know it was delicious!

One of my favorite reasons to do sreet photography - it so often reintroduces memories long forgotten.
I love the mileu of elements in this photo - architecture, capitalism, nature, and of course, my new friend, the pigeon that roamed around cocking it's head side to side.
