Mural

This is a mural outside of Cuba Cuba. It's a great little resturant that my friend and I went to recently. I love that it's done in all blues.

Patos and Tortugas

I just thought this was so cute. The turtles really add that "cuteness" factor. They were not fazed at all by the comotion stired up by the ducks. This is at Maymont in the Japanese Garden, where there are coi fish bigger than the ducks!

Painting at Maymont

I was at Maymont Park the other day and I came across this lady painting in the Italian Garden. It's amazing to see the things people do, I'm highly intrigued by it all. She had a nice crowd gathered around her watching her paint.

Kite

I went to a kite festival this past weekend. It was a great day to fly a kite, it was a little cold, but I think everyone there seemed to be having a good time. This paticular kite is a stunt kite flown by some professional kite flyers performing a show. I believe that these kites would actually pick me up and throw me through the air. I hope to post some more pictures from this weekend! (words of advice when photographying people flying kites; stay away from the people throwing the kites in the air to get them to fly because you get hit....alot! This happened to me TWICE!)

Resting

This is another shot from Hollywood Cemetary. This one of a young lady taking a rest from a bike ride through the large place. She's sitting facing the James River and Belle Isle watching a train full of coal go by.

Statue



I visited Hollywood Cemetary today. It is so beautiful. It was a great day to be there too, with the nice weather we were having. The cemetary is so big, and so elegant. Presidents like John Tyler are buried here. This one paticular statue didn't have a name on it, it just had a simple inscription that said, "to the cross I cling". She was so beautiful standing there in the sun.
