Scenes of the Holidays

This is a small glimpse into my Santa Clause collection. I have in excess of 370 Santas, some as small as a thimble and others almost the size of a 5 year old child.

Mighty Tugboats

I don't know much of anything about tugboats but I love watching them in action, they are so powerful!
Each one looks similar and they do the same job but each of these photos depict a tugboat in a different port.

Windows of the World

I'm fascinated with windows, past, present, and future, or at least that's what looking through them gives the observer.
These were some of the windows I photographed during our visit to Mexico, Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Colombia.

This was a piece of the art on our cruise ship.

You Can Tell How Much Wealth Someone Has By The Number of Balconies On Their Home/Business

This is a photo of a street in the Old City in Cartagena, Colombia. Go ahead, click on the photo for a larger shot with much more detail.
Only the wealthy have balconies/verandahs and so the more you have on your home or business the wealthier you are (or so we were told by our tour guide).

Day Is Done, Gone The Sun

Saying Goodbye to the Day.
These shots were taken from the verandah of our cruiseship. There is something spectacular to starting the day in ports that are so beautiful they take your breath away and then ending your day with sunsets that beg to be captured and enjoyed forever.
