Desecrating the Flag

Desecrating the Flag

I was waiting to march in the Fourth of July Parade in Danville, CA in 2003 when I saw this. These people have all of the phrases of the Pledge of Allegiance on banners, but have the flag itself lying on the ground and draped over one of them, both of which are illegal under the United States Code. To me they are hypocrites.

One of our assignments in Santa Fe was to set up in one place and wait for interesting things to happen. I saw a man with a white cane and a little kid come into view and the man picked the kid up and gave her a drink.

There is a bench near my hotel and I spent a lot of time on it because my leg was giving me trouble and and I made this image from it.


Queen's day urination

Queen's day urination

Shot from my hotel room window at the end of the day. I don't know why we don't have facilities like this in San Francisco - they would solve a lot of problems with public urination.


Sea Lion Showering

Sea Lion Showering

In Noyo Harbor, near Fort Bragg, on a short trip to the Mendocino Coast. I was on the docks and saw a dog running back and forth barking, and went to see what he was barking at.

The Bride of the Fjord

The Bride of the Fjord

I made up the title. One day when we were in Akureyri in Iceland there was an Arts Day, and as far as I could learn (the local people I spoke to really didn't know much more than I did) this sort of procession was made up by the woman in front. This street leads to the fjord, into which she jumped when she got there. This is a brand new thing with no sort of local tradition.
