Stand alone pictures

Today's post is simply of a hodgepodge of pictures. These photos didn't get selected to go in to any of my previous posts but I like them. There is something about each of them that pleases my eye. I thought it would be a shame to not share them. 

Squares, columns and colors


A friendly place with a sense of humor



I've read plenty of novels in which stage doors figure prominently. Here's a real one. 


This is one of my favorites. I like the bricks and the angles. 



That door is narrower than a standard door. 


This is looking in to the Sky City Entertainment Center. It is a six story fantasy land of 12 theaters, restaurants, and many esoteric amusement possibilities. All connected by escalators. (and lifts)
I have done a post on this place and will post it sometime soon. I love it in there. It makes me feel as though I have stepped in to an Escher painting. Odd angles abound. 


I haven't looked back through my pictures for my original shot of this tree on a tree, so I can't be sure, but I think the tree on top of the palm was trimmed. 


I hope you liked my selections.      -djf

  1. I enjoyed your random selection of pictures - with so many of them seeming to invite you further in, up or around (as in a dance)! I wonder how the 'for the love of bees' project is doing? I do remember the tree on a tree from a previous post and it appears to be thriving. I love the bright green & blue Korean restaurant - reminds me of an old-fashioned diner.

    Your current cover picture is very nice as well - maybe you could do a post sometime featuring your past cover pictures! This post is your 258th one since you started in 2014.. wow!

    Keep it up - I really look forward to your posts!

    1. Thanks for your kind words. I might be hard pressed though to remember which pictures I used for my headers. But they are adding up, aren't they?
      Who would have thought I'd be able to find so many things to talk about?

  2. I loved the pictures also. The one with bricks and angles reminds me of a Streetcar Named Desire. It looks like Stella and Stanley's apartment in New Orleans. I was also partial to the stage door as it reminds of my visits in my youth to New York. McKenzie

    1. I thought that you especially would like the stage door shot, McKenzie. It's the only stage door I've run across here, but I'll keep my eyes open for others.
