a spiral of ivy
It was hot that day. And for days and days before. And for days and days after. But that ivy was tenacious and continued to spiral its way up the metal grates.
I am not tenacious. So I got back in the car, cranked down the AC, and continued on my way.

donut city
That early Sunday morning, all the other patrons at Donut City were getting their breakfast to go, which meant that I had the dining room to myself.
And that meant that I had a nice start to the day photographing the place, including the reflection in the display case and also this colorful scene.

fisherman
I was dreaming of Sicily the other day when I was editing images. I mean, I’ve dreamt of Sicily every day since I got back, so that’s not really anything new. Anyway, that led me to prowl around my photos, both for nostalgic reasons and also to mine them for editing.
This portrait of a man fishing along the harbor in Palermo had been waiting on me to notice it; I appreciate its patience.

the pensive man
You may remember an earlier photograph of a street-side mechanic? This is the man whose hands you saw in that other image. In case you wondered.
We were in his vicinity for several hours and that motorcycle never seemed to become operational while we were there; his face tells the same story.

heading home
This family had completed their shopping at the courthouse square farmers’ market and were heading home. Eventually. It took a minute to get organized; that one kid on the right sort of had some other plans in mind.
