My Portfolio

A bridge in Paris, France, across the Seine.

The telescopes on the Tour Eiffel give a wide-ranging view of the city below.

This statue stands on a ledge outside the Musee d'Orsay.

This is one of several statues that stand outside the Grand Palais and Petit Palais in Paris.

Trees near Notre Dame line the street on a cloudy day.

A bust in the Louvre overlooks its courtyard on a sunny morning.

In other rooms, shades mute the bright light of the Parisian morning.
A dozen of the motorcycles that populate European roadways park on a courtyard.

This phrase, translated "You are not alone," accompanies a view of the Seine.
Paris' cafes are a classic place to sit, drink espresso, and soak in the sights and sounds of the city.

St. James's Park in London is full of all kinds of birds, inducing pelicans.

The park is also home to a walkway dedicated to Princess Diana and lined with a multicolored assortment of flowers.

In the British Museum, cases of Greek pottery line the walls of several rooms.

During the summer, hydrangeas blossom all over Massachusetts, especially on Cape Cod.

The weathered stairs of my deck lead to a patch of monochrome stones.

At the end of the summer the beams holding up our bean plants collapsed.

Our neighbor's house contrasted against the early hues of fall leaves.

One of our many holiday decorations, this stuffed bear sits on the mantle near the tree.

The needles of our tree make an interesting, soft but sharp close-up.
