Trains and tracks
My entry for Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge this week.
Mexico Monday redux, Week 6
My collection of slides from Mexico, especially the ones kept in boxes, have been shuffled and reshuffled so many times that sometimes it’s tough to figure out their proper sequence.

Mexico Monday redux, Week 4

I do still have some memories, though — like staying at the Chacons’ lovely house in Mexico City. Their front door was unlike any I had ever seen before. It was […]
Looking back
Google Photos likes to show me my past images, and these were shot during the final week of May 2016.
