International Pizza and Beer Day Because Some Pairings Just Work

Apparently, there’s a day for almost everything now — and today it’s International Pizza and Beer Day. Somewhere between the invention of the calendar and the internet’s obsession with food holidays, we ended up with a reason to toast to pepperoni and foam.

The scene says it all: two friends, a beach, the last rays of the day, and a pizza waiting patiently between them. Maybe it’s celebration. Maybe it’s strategy. Either way, it’s hard to argue with the logic — some pairings just work.

On The Beach In Ipanema

I just photographed this today. Well not actually photographed. This is my first attempt at AI. I did not realize that AI is so very realized in words, prose, poetry.

However I prefer in person, the vision through a viewfinder. The snap of the shutter or even the winding of film. AI cannot replace actually being there in a candid moment. Or especially in this case, being in the company of a beautiful woman. 03-18-2024

Clouds And Colors At Sunset

Lots of different cloud movements and subtle colors at sunset. Over Palm Springs yesterday. Time-lapse.

Bombay Beach Sunset

Sunset last night at Bombay Beach over the Salton Sea. The little tiny black speck over the water, lower left of center is actually a kite being flown by the two people below it. Check out the really tight crop below the photograph. With my Hasselblad digital camera.
