Today I took the train downtown and walked from 30th St. Station to 50th & Baltimore and back, taking lots of photos.  There’s something pleasing about wandering randomly and looking for interesting things to photograph. It makes me very aware of the details of my surroundings, and also aware of how much [...]

A very large, beautiful, abandoned building in my neighborhood. It was a nursing home at one point. I wonder if I can find out more about it somehow…

A lone flower growing behind an office building. It’s amazing how tenacious plants are.

Today I went on an early morning tour of the Philadelphia Flower Show with my mom. It was great being there before the crowds! As usual, I was more impressed by the individual plant displays than the big displays. I particularly like the orchids.

Today on the train ride home from work I dozed off, as I often do. I woke up suddenly at the stop before mine and thought it was my stop, gathered up all my stuff and ran out of the train. Didn’t even realize I was at the wrong stop until I was on the [...]

The sun was shining into the train window in a beautiful way this evening and it made me happy. (It’s the little things!). I think I’m in that place I always get to mid-February where I’m just tired of winter.

I liked the colors of the building against the blue sky and white snow. Taken from the train on the way home.


Abandoned Places

Abandoned Places

Abandoned Places has to qualify as one of my favorite websites of all time.
It is the urban exploration photo site of Henk van Rensbergen.  He says “Today, the pyramids of the industrial revolution just uselessly stand in the way, they’re a scar in the landscape. The deafening noises have been replaced by silence, but if [...]

Resurrecting my project of taking one picture per day.  Formerly located on my Flickr page. It would have been nice to start on Jan. 1, but what can you do?
