"Don't sit under the apple try with anyone else but me" That tune got stuck in my head when I saw this nice looking apple tree yesterday. The top picture looks like the bumble bee is trying to tighten or unscrew a screw. The second picture is the same bee with my surreal touch.
This window view is from the ruins of an 18th century mill.
While standing on the shore of the Delaware river in the town of Bristol Pennsylvania I spied a riverboat and a very tall spire on the other side. I later found out that the town on the other side is Burlington New Jersy. The riverboat is called the Liberty Belle and can be seen here. The church with the tall spire is Saint Mary's and it can be seen here.
This is my Monochrome weekly post.
I took this on the shore of the Delaware river on a cloudy day in Bristol Pennsylvania.
It's been raining in Newtown so I decided to post the cool beautiful skies of Rouen France that I took in February of this year. You might remember seeing some of these buildings in previous posts.
This is my old stomping grounds in Huntington Beach California, looking toward Long Beach.
"What's the matter camera boy, you ain't never saw a deal going down? Get out of here before I box your ears."
Yep, I just got Photoshop.

For a price you can have your very own Zen slave, or at least a Zen like statue in a box .
This is the very easy to miss Tower of Fearless John Duke of Burgundy, he lived from 1371 to 1419. It's in the 2nd arrondissement in Paris on Rue Etienne Marcel very close to Rue Montorguiel. The tower is actually called "Tour Jean sans Peur" and is Paris' only fortified medieval tower.
This is Al Capone's Eastern State Penitentiary cell preserved for posterity with Art Deco and Victorian furniture popular in the late 1920s. I that it looked much nicer back in his day.
I really like this picture. The sky isn't clear and blue but I find it mysteriously beautiful. It looks like the statue has a heavenly spotlight above it.
I looked out of my 21st floor hotel room window just before sunset on July fourth and noticed these people on a balcony high above Philadelphia undoubtably waiting for the fireworks to begin. They were a few hours early but what a great place to watch the show.
I am proud and pleased to announce that Juergen Kuehn has awarded me the "Blog De Ouro" award. Juergen is a very talented poet and photographer who lives in the beautiful German town called Marburg. He has several blogs of photos and poetry so I encourange anyone who reads this to check out his blogs.
I have been having terrible problems with my computer so I couldn't post for a few days.
