Alexandria Monument shot through the window of a moving bus. Fortunately the streets were congested enough that I could actually focus.

Shower tree

These beautiful flowers are best viewed in someone else's yard. (So that someone else has to rake the detritus...)

This tree was particularly beautiful as it is in the parking lot of the Hickam AFB Commissary....well away from my personal landscaping area.

I love my summer trips to Alaska. Nature says "Hey! We only have a couple of months here, so let's go full out gorgeous!"

Messiah Gate

It is through this Gate in the Jerusalem wall, that the Messiah will enter the city. I shot this just outside the Garden of Gethsemane. I haven't yet been able to fully articulate what is was like, even with the crush of people, to be in those places. Just can't find the words.

Cheeky capitals

Peeking above the bushes...the top of the Olympeion (Temple of Olympian Zeus)
