Allan: Montreal, 2006

My friend Allan just cannot keep a straight face when I take his picture. He is a compulsive mugger but I have learned over time to use it to my advantage, This shot was taken at “le Chalet” on Mt. Royal in Montreal last month. We had been there for a weekend and was showing them some of the sites.

Since I have been living in Vermont (for the past 15 years), I have slowly re-developed a love for the city where I was born and have lived for the first 45 years of my life. Now, like most Vermonters, I love visiting it but of course would never move back. Life as a resident, would be just too complicated.

Ft. Lauderdale: Winter 2006

Sometimes you have to look at an image a few times before you really see it. This one has been around since last winter and I never noticed it until I did a small crop (I removed some extaneous background) and there it was.
