It's 2015, and I'm only sharing photos from mid-2014 now...  You think this is bad, you should see how far behind I am with email!  (More than six thousand messages!?)

In addition to my day trip to Uppsala, I had a chance to take some pleasant walks around Brunnsviken and Norrmalm during my stay in Stockholm.  Here are some photos from those, not-very-touristy walks.

In May of 2014, I also managed to spend an American holiday weekend in Sweden, where I took a day trip to Uppsala to see the Universitet, the Slott, a multicultural fair (where I ate delicious African food), and to enjoy a real Swedish Fika.  Here are photos from my pleasant afternoon in Uppsala.

I had two days off after some UK business meetings, so I took a train to London and decided to spend the hot May weekend there.

The heat suppressed my energy levels, so I spent one day at the (air conditioned) Tate Britain, and the other exploring Chelsea on foot, (and/or hiding out in my air conditioned hotel room, waiting for the sun to set so I could feel some cool air on my skin).  I rested a bit more than I had hoped, but still had a chance to take some long walks.

For those of you in or around San Francisco who like contemporary ceramics, the Asian Art Museum's "Tradition on Fire" exhibit is stunning.

Here are some thoughts on keeping a photographic journal, something which has been quite educational for me to try.

Monir's giant, complex mirror mosaics are exciting for geometry fetishists of all stripes: search Google images for "Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian" to see the scale of some of her work.
