Painted ceiling from Renaissance Room in the Governor Hotel--a hundred year-old schmancy place in downtown Portland.

The speedometer on our van. No, I wasn't driving at the time. Just waiting in the parking lot with a kid in the backseat while dear wife was in the library. A perfect time to get the camera out and shoot! (Told ya--I never leave home without it! Okay, almost never.)...

Adding to my collection of bike rack photos.

Looks fierce, doesn't he? He's actually very lovable. Neighbor's cat from way down the street.

That's my boy, lost in playful thought. The thing in his hand is just a piece of cardboard, but in his endless vivid imagination, it becomes a hundred other things. He was frantic when he got home and realized he had left it at the park. Being the nice dad that I am, I drove him back to the park to retrieve it. Now life is good again....

A dandelion prepared to launch seeds and spread a sea of yellow into nearby yards. Doesn't it take you back to childhood? What kid can resist picking these guys and blowing the seeds to the wind?...
