After some physical therapy, especially a well-known (but not to me) recommendation to stiffen my belly as if I was fending off a punch, I discovered a new ability to ambulate and decided to try it out this afternoon. Simultaneously, being inspired by some of the prolific LUGers, I decided to shoot every thing I saw of interest in a short walk. So, please have a look. First, an oak that I posted a few years ago, but this is a new shot. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004110.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004110.jpg.html> A gingko branch. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004112.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004112.jpg.html> The city fathers decided there were too many stupid people around, and these yellow additions to the stop signs suddenly appeared .http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004113.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004113.jpg.html> Who can resist a Porsche? I then saw one in the next block, but I figured one was enough. Of course, if it had been one of those Porsche SUVs, I would have shot it and title the picture ?Blasphemy?. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004114.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004114.jpg.html> This puzzled me, but having never seen the like of it before, I took a shot. Checked the web site. Turns out it is kind of broad, allegedly preparing for everything from a crime wave to an earthquake. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004115.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004115.jpg.html> Shy blossom hiding away. What is it? http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004116.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1004116.jpg.html> Delicate blossom.
