Berkeley Trained

As you can imagine, there's some very well-taught topiary coming out of Berkeley.

Berkeley Shapes

Early July in the sunny, mild East Bay. The weather, it was so...so California.

More Turquoise Across the Street

Here is a cropped version of Across the Street, featured here earlier. When I took the initial photos, I think I raised concerns from the neighbor of our friends in Santa Rosa: Who's that stranger taking pictures of my place? It is an intrusive thing to do, and I've had to explain myself more than once.

Cluster in Cortez

Cortez, Florida, near Longboat Key, which is near Sarasota.

This is from a much wider photograph; I knew instinctively there was something in there that I liked, 

and this was it.

Palms Over Noe Valley

This was on a rare sunny afternoon in July in San Francisco. Most of the time we were there was overcast/foggy, with highs in the lower 60s. But I couldn't complain as the rest of the country sweltered.

Mark Twain had an oft-cited quote about summers in San Francisco - so oft that I dare not cite it here.

Another Note from Starkville

Here's a second take on the same place in Happytown as depicted back on May 23.
