I can barely remember taking this photo. But I do remember being in Oxford. Having a wander around with my brother. Getting introduced to a new place because of this photo. (And others taken on the same day.) I’m reminded of the lovely ever-changing British […]

There’s something oddly suspicious looking about these pigeons. Or is that just me? Maybe it’s not that they look suspicious, but there’s something oddly human about how they’re all appear to be waiting for… something. Or I’m reading way too much into an image of […]
Looking very civil
Taken at that time of the mid-morning on a weekday when folks are at work, the lunch break is still a little while away, and restaurants are prepping for a mildly active Monday lunch time. This cute little storefront is Hot Daisy Pizza on Roosevelt […]

On 5th Street and Garfield Street, you’ll find this house. It’s covered in graffiti. You can barely see an inch of this house’s original paint colour. I have no idea about the history of this house. Why is it covered in graffiti? Who owns it? […]
People watching at the DBG
Watching how people wander around Phoenix’s Desert Botanical Gardens is almost as interesting as the actual gardens. Almost. It’s fun to see and hear other visitors having the exact same reactions and thoughts you’re having seeing the gardens—look at the SIZE of that saguaro; you […]
