The shot was taken in 2008 somewhere near the 9th and U Street intersection...pretty sure it was an alley cat.

UHOP Memorial Day Parade 2014 - Washington, DC

There was a time when I loathed this parade as a resource suck but getting back to my old neighborhood and seeing the way that the community shows up each and every year was truly amazing...

My apologies for the radio silence but now posts will begin again in earnest.

Just a quick reminder all images are Copyright Brian G Smith, they are my images and if you want to use them email me and ask!

Lac Leman

Just Strange - Lausanne, Switzerland

I ran across this the other day and just loved it. In the United States it has an entirely different meaning than Switzerland (I hope anyway).

Lausanne, Switzerland

Sorry for the delay...

Sorry for the delay in getting posts up on the blog, new posts will begin again tomorrow.

Human Kite - Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland

If you ever get the opportunity to see this in person do it...but I caution anyone who wants to "try" this as they are jumping off a cliff that is probably 2,000+ feet high.
