I shot this one through the windshield as I was waiting for the light to change. I wonder if she knew that she wasn’t walking alone.

My theme was ‘urban’ today. This was shot in downtown Kent, WA., which is a small town south of Seattle. Kent is surrounded by farms and a bit of industry.
So does that make it ‘rural-urban’… ‘ruban’… ‘urbal’?
Hmmmm…

While it is starting to bolt, this cinnamon basil still has a lot of green below the flowers. It contains the same chemical that gives regular cinnamon it’s scent and flavor.
It has an amazing flavor and is used in middle eastern dishes. Or even a natural bath oil.

The filtered afternoon sun hit these branches just as I was putting my camera away. This is the last photo I took today…

This colorful little shrub is actually part of the barberry family, not a bamboo at all despite the common name. The leaves sprout a pink to red color before turning green, then turn red/purple before dropping.
Very pretty plant!

“Forever In Our Hearts — James M. “Jimi” Hendrix — 1942-1970”
This Hendrix family memorial gravesite is located at Greenwood Memorial Park in Renton, Washington. Although it’s only 10 miles from where I live, today is the first time I’ve ever visited it.
There were several people visiting, but there was a ten minute lull and I was able to grab several photos. Folks had left several ‘gifts’, ranging from flowers to Zig Zag rolling papers to chalk for leaving a message.
I did this in HDR and some fairly heavy tone mapping. It gave me the look I was after… almost postcardish. Today was a pretty drab day and the original looked pretty much like… well… a drab snapshot.

Another try at multiplicity… how fun!
My granddaughter, Maddie, advanced the runners with this line drive down the first base line…
I shot this series from the outfield at 250mm.
