Alki in May

oh gosh... another round of old pics! I am slowly but surely chipping away at the pics from this past spring & summer; guess I have had too much fun to sit down and edit/post!

This photos were taken on a nice, sunny afternoon in May. Dma & I joined the butcher & hmm-mmm for the Alki Street fair. Of course, I had to attempt a photo of an iris. A few years ago I took a picture of an iris in this same spot; only back then I had to have dma set up the camera for me. It is kind of amazing; back then I didn't know anything about f-stops and what in the heck to do to meter. So, here are the 2010 versions... (check out dma's website to see my old one)


And there were other lovely flowers around, too!

Even though I have lived in Washington for pretty much all my life, I am still like a kid when I see a ferry. Imagine how my world was rocked to see TWO ferries! AND cool clouds. wow.

I took some random street pics, too. This first one I am calling "Seattle Dude" because he is sporting a scholarly jacket/slacks look while enjoying a cup of Starbucks and a punch of flair via the red kicks.

There was a pretty sweet skate ramp thing set up, too, for the kiddos...

And no street fair would be complete without an appearance from the man of steel... if only it was tom welling... sigh ;)

yay! another post down! soooo many more to go. yikes.
