Introduction

On this site, I posted a picture (almost) every day, from December 3, 2010 to December 3, 2011. Only 16 days during that period are without pictures. All but two pictures were taken on the day of the post. Sometimes the daily picture represented the day in a larger way; sometimes it was just a picture. Since I posted so often, some pictures are more interesting than others.

After one year of posting a daily picture, I posted pictures less frequently - whenever I had something worth sharing.

After two years of more casual posting, I decided to once again post a daily (or almost daily) picture in 2014.

I'm not a photographer, and most of these pictures were taken with an inexpensive digital camera. A few were taken with a cellphone camera. Click on any picture for a larger view.

Marimba


A new experience for me - a recording session during which I played not only saxophone, but marimba.

Hat and Watering Can


My late mom was an avid gardener; her favorite gardening hat and watering can are still on the shelf where she left them six years ago.

Muzak


In a local Atlanta pizza joint, an old sign from the company which for years provided innocuous background music to the commercial world.

No picture from September 24 - sorry.

Watershed Mural


I live just a few feet from the Eastern Subcontinental Divide, the ridge that runs along the eastern part of the United States. On the east side of the Divide, water drains into the Atlantic Ocean; on the west side, it flows to the Gulf of Mexico. Just a couple of blocks from my house, there is a mural celebrating the Divide.

Kilroy Was Here


I usually don't post family pictures here, but I couldn't resist my great nephew Lucas in a perfect "Kilroy" pose.

No picture from September 21.

Dew Drop Inn


The remnants of one of the country's great R & B clubs, on LaSalle Street in New Orleans. From the 1940's to the 1970's, everybody who was anybody played here.

McKeown's Books


...and Difficult Music, on Tchoupitoulas Street in New Orleans. My favorite spot in the store is the "Difficult Music Cabinet," which is so labeled. I bought a difficult CD of improvisations by New Orleans cellist Helen Gillet, with saxophonist Tim Green and percussionist Doug Garrison.

Mobile Bridge


General W.K. Wilson Jr. Bridge, north of Mobile, Alabama, crossing the Mobile-Tensaw River delta. I've thought that this was a cool bridge for years.

Coan Park Xylophones


Atlanta's Coan Park has a bunch of metal and wooden xylophones, of all sizes, for kids to play. Cool idea. (Thanks to Sandy for the picture suggestion.)

1950's Jazz Book


A 1958 British jazz book with an amusingly "moldy fig" slant - I picked it up for two bucks. I like the cover design.

...of one of the LaFrance Street Living Walls graffiti artists. You can see this piece in progress here - it's to the right, behind the scaffolding.
