The Loretto

On 39th Street, Midtown.

A grand old building, for sure.

Dinner Sunset Redux: B & W

Planters

I was down in City Market Last week---and looked up.

Dinner Sunset

I've shot the sunset coming through the windows several times, many, really, in Westport at Bistro 303. I committed to myself I wouldn't post just one more unless it was different. I think this did just that.

Sunset Welcome

This was at the HJ Community Center on Wornal, in Brookside, last week at sunset.

The Visitor

4 Years Ago Today

Four years ago today. Downtown Springfield, Missouri.

I like how it turned out. I took a little editing/artistic license and heightened the colors for effect. I think it gives it a certain Edward Hopper look. Framed, if someone said it was a watercolor, I think it would be believable.

Shakespeare in the Park

Last week.

If you have to ask, you don't know.

It's Been a Beautiful Spring

From a couple weeks ago, here in the area.

Restored Beauty

This was recently redone, rehabbed, reworked and restored. It was a beautiful old house anyway but it looks fantastic now. As always, click on picture for larger view.

It's at about 55th St and Ward Parkway.

Another Local Beauty

Golden Sunrise

Just that, golden sunrise today, on the way to work.

This is about 71st and Ward Parkway. I saw it on the way to work and knew I had to pull over and get it.

Nawlinz

Easter Sunday

In the Easter Parade, the one and only Bourbon Street, in the French Quarter, New Orleans.

The driver said it's a 1944 something or other. Sorry I can't be more informative.

Six Six

On the way home from work this evening, on Shawnee Mission Parkway.

It was a young guy driving, too, for once. Not an older gentleman. Surprised me.

Remember

A year ago this week, I was in Atlanta for 3 weeks, on vacation. I shot this there in Piedmont Park.

I post this here, now, for a two reasons.

First, it's to remind us. I think we need, after this cold, icy, snowy, grey winter to be reminded of what was out there. Reminded of what comes around every year. Reminded of what is soon to come, as Spring will surely, one day soon, be here again. I know I've nearly forgotten.

Second, I post this because I wrote, a year ago yesterday, that it was 61 degrees in Atlanta at that time.

But the heck of it?

It was 62 degrees that same day in Kansas City.

So have hope, Kansas Citians, Midwesterners.

Spring will surely come back and it will be here soon.

Study in Winter

Last week's ice. Preparing for more.

Happy Valentine's Day

If you've completely forgotten, it's not too late. You can still get these at Cosentino's Price Chopper in Brookside.

Have a great day.
