Geneva, 8:45 am. By the station I saw the glaring sun reflection on the bench. The time to get nearer, somebody sat down on it. I took the 1st picture and rotated towards the tarmac for my 2nd picture. Voilà.

I saw this young boy supporting his father. When I was ready to take the picture his father was eliminated and left the track, so his son was not looking at the cyclists anymore but still supporting his father as he did not understood what happened. I was so disappointed that my photo was ruined, but I still took one. When I came home and was able to have a closed look, I realised the the picture I took was much better that the one I had in mind.

Trinity Church

I went back to Trinity Church, on Queen Anne Square in Newport, Rhode Island a few hours after sunrise.
As the sun was positioned right in the bell tower, I also noticed the light shining through the lampposts, as if they were still aglow from the night.
It is interesting that within a few minutes, lighting changes and this instance is gone.

Taken round the fire after a full days martial arts training. The days are long and the training can be intensive, a time to sit and recharge for the next day and the mugs contain something a little stronger than tea or coffee !

Walking along the rocky beach, I saw this face staring up at me. I see a very stern, determined face staring back from under a tall helmet, probably with a chin guard. I darkened the outside to draw attention to the face, but have not modified any of the features.

On my walks along the small waterways near my home, I see non-degradable litter in the water and along the banks.
We must all ensure that we either, avoid using non recyclable products, or at lease ensure we dispose of plastics and non-recyclable so they do not reach our waterways.

We finally got around to spreading Baba's (https://steveinjapan.aminus3.com/image/2021-11-12.html) ashes along the Naches Peak Trail near Mount Rainier National Park. It was one of his favorite hikes due to the abundant wildflowers and spectacular mountain views. Mama thought she couldn't make the 3.5 miles or so loop, but as this photo proves, she made it with her smile intact!

So if you happen to trek that trail, take some photos for him!

This picture has been taken during a walk in the countryside near La Neuvelotte (Lorraine) France. During the hot days the air was without any haze and the sun went down around nine o' clock .There are no digital enhancements here, except for the shadows that needed a little lighting.
The setting reminds me of some of my paintings in the 90ies, but I must admit that the camera did a very good job here.

Angels Road Trip

Toronto, Canada

Flag of CA

Over a thousand Hells Angels took a road trip into Toronto to pay respects to one of their own who has passed away. One of Toronto's many nicknames is Hogtown, so all those Harleys seem applicable. I took this photo yesterday looking north on Carlaw avenue at Eastern avenue. (Why "Hogtown"? The city was home to several abattoirs where many pigs met their makers during the Victorian and Edwardian era and the nickname stuck around.)

Lunar Eclipse

Vermont, United States

Flag of US

I knew it was weak, but t hadi rained all day and was forecast to be cloudy over night, so I didn't recharge it earlier in the day. As I was ready for bed, I looked out the window and beheld a full moon. Setting up the camera for some test shots of the full moon (I had researched camera setting several days before), I prepared for a long wait...until clouds rolled in, obscuring the moon once again. So I packed up the camera and went inside...only to behold out my window the moon, already partially in shadow, Out I went to set up once again, as the sky got hazy and ground fog began to develop. This time I waited it out and while the sky was not as clear as I would have liked, I did get to watch the eclipse, snapping multiple exposures. Just as the moon was emerging from the earth's umbra, and things looked like they were peaking...the battery died.

Lachen,  Sikkim, India

Lachen, Sikkim, India

Flag of IN

Lachen is a small resort village in the state of North Sikkim, India. This is the view from our hotel balcony from our family vacation in April 2022.


The weather was cloudy, rainy, and chilly (7 deg Celcius in April). Sometimes these combination creates wonderful photo opportunities like this.

It is a very colorful village with every building (most probably a hotel) very well decorated from the outside. It is very enjoyable to take a walk over here with snow-peaked mountains on one side and a river flowing down.

This town is at an altitude of 8,500 ft and is used as a stopover to acclimatize before tourists visit Gurudongmar Lake at an altitude of 17,800 ft. Reaching Lachen takes almost a day (6-7hrs drive) from Gangtok which is the capital of Sikkim.


Foreigners don't usually visit this village. They are not allowed to travel farther north to the lake as it is very close to India-China international border.

Waterfalls of North Sikkim - I

Northern Sikkim, India

Flag of IN

North Sikkim road journeys are long but you come across so many waterfalls on the way. The hours spent on the road were the highlight of the trip. I don't think there is any other place with this high density of waterfalls.

This is because the drive to North Sikkim is all uphill and this is the east Himalayan region, where it either rains or there is melting snow coming from many hills, to form tributaries which further form local rivers like Lachen River and Lachung River, which further connects to Teesta River which further connects to the great Bharmaputra River.
