Cramped wheeled boxes carrying commuting smiles across a city of ongoing struggles and ongoing kindness. Sneak a peek. You’ll be surprised.

Santo Domingo, DO 2010


100th Post!!!!!!!

Hate to rain on your parade, but #100 was yesterday. Yup, you missed it. Seriously, count’em.

Mouthwatering

It might look strange, unappetizing, or intimidating, but it’s usually worthy of the spotlight.

Everything from that day is a blur.

Wake Up, Sunshine

Just another hazy Monday.

With My Little Eye

What a marvelous place must the world seem to him from his naively limited point of view.

Guayama, PR 2010


Crazy

In a fake plastic microphone, to the beat of a worn out tune… among strange spectators in the middle of the street, happiness reveals its aloof demeanor.

San Juan, PR 2010


Multiple Choices

What do you think he’ll do when he walks by the old man?

Dim

In the gloom appears a man, old but still present, still determined to remain in view and not recede into the shadows, where he knows things get lost and eventually forgotten.

Explore

Every word that makes it to paper, regardless of its meaning, is a treasure waiting to be discovered. It’s true value, however, depends on the seeker.

Askew

As you contemplate the facade, the doors suddenly open and out comes a woman holding a broom; a stereotype, you think, if there ever was one, a letdown of sorts. Unaware of the bigger picture, you might walk away crestfallen, never realizing that from another perspective you could’ve been looking up to her and she down on you.

Ávila, ES 2010
