Symbol

Photo Friday's theme is Symbol. I took this last Fall while traveling through Paris. Napolean's insignia was once the symbol of a nation. It helped define the reason behind a war and how a changing nation was lead by a man full of symbolism. I enjoyed seeing Napolean's tomb though I wonder why such a short man required such a large capsule. Maybe to hold his ego?

Green

Photo Friday's theme is Green. I took this photo while walking with Zubin in Discovery Park one day. I'd say most of that park is GREEN! I really enjoyed how the light filtered down to the ground and how the moss had grown on this tree. It was a beautiful day for a walk.

On Guard

Another shot from my mini-break to San Diego. I love the lifeguard towers on their beaches and since I'm currently obessed with the the color, teal, I was immediately drawn to this structure.

Forgotten

TThis is another image from my visit to San Diego. This forgotten shoe captured my attention and the beautiful Hotel Del Coronado provided the nicest background. with some attentiona and a bit of luck, I was able to capture the hotel's reflection in the outgoing tide though my friend did express his wonder at my fascination with this shoe.

Space

This Photo Friday's theme is "Space". A few weekends ago, I headed down to San Diego to visit a friend. He took me to Coronado Beach to visit the Hotel Del Coronado. While the hotel held his attention, mine was drawn to the beach. Even in less than perfect weather, this was a place I could settle into. The wide open space and sandy lines reminded me of pictures of the surface of the moon.

Action

This Photo Friday's theme is "Action". One day we took a walk down to the Seattle Waterfront and wandered into the game area. There was a carousel which reminded me of riding them as a child when visiting my Grandfather in Spokane. There were these rings you would try to grab and the "golden" ring was the most valuable. I was never able to grab the "golden" ring.
