The floating market in Willemstad, Curacao. The market isn't floating, but the fruit, vegetables and fish have been transported over the water from Venezuela.
The best old country road in Michigan! Just up the north bluff from Arcadia, Michigan, just south of Frankfort. It's that old, rolling hill, kind of road that you went 60 miles per hour down in an old wooden paneled station wagon with bad shocks and the windows rolled down...ahhh!
Orient Beach, St. Maarten. A great beach to get a little sun because there's always a breeze, a great place to people watch because there's a nudist beach down the way...and a great place to get some great french picnic food - a baguette and some cheese.
Just a little local color on the side of a house in an Akah village, outside of Chang Mai, Thailand.
Kids cooling off in April, the hottest month of the year, in the Mekong River, Thailand. Outside of Chang Mai.
Detail on statue in the Grand Palace, Bangkok, Thailand.
Pose for a quick shot in Wat Po, Bangkok, Thailand
Smiling turtle gargoyles on the side of the Cathedral in Quito, Ecuador. All gargoyles are native reptiles and amphibians of Ecuador.
Just off the left side of the road if you're heading west on 101 in Port Angeles, Washington.
Reading the newspaper on a couch on the side of the road. (yes, I set this up, but the couch was already there...). Utah.
