<p>Number 2</p><div></div>

<p>This week Dick and Jane go to the Big City....</p>

<p>More specifically to the great bustling mall. Well, the mall anyway. Things are not looking too good there. In its heyday there would have been at least a half dozen cars visible!</p><div></div>

<p>The mall still has a few amenities, such as kid rides. Rumor has it that Generalissimo Franco is dead, but I'm not sure the news has made it to Falgas, the Spanish manufacturer of these.</p><div></div>

<p>Don't worry, though. If you can find out where the adult in charge is hiding, you can get into the bouncy castle ride. Just make sure you follow all the rules. Have a smiley day.</p>

<p>All these pictures, by the way, were taken with the usual D3200 and kit lens.</p>

<p>May Fair at the local historical house.</p><div></div>

<p>From the other day just before the full moon</p><div></div>

<p>In Helsinki, a May Eve tradition is that students put on a white cap on the head of a statue downtown. </p><div></div>

<p><img src="/photo/18016993" alt="" />Mine is from Candiac in Quebec. A strange section of trees look as if some very strong force went through and yet we are not a tornado area. I thought I saw a wooden flower with this one.</p>

<p>PS Great shots as usual and as always the variety is stunning. Panayotis - wish I was there at that lake. Les, Bob and Lex - love the portraits. Chris and Scott - love the clarity and details, Elliot - outstanding timing and focus to name but a few. </p><div></div>

<p>And on May Day there was a march organized by some anarchists...</p><div></div>

<p>Happy Wednesday, I've been continuing a river documentary project so I have a lot of new images to sort through and available to share. Enjoy!</p><div></div>

<p>Wait, what? Anarchists can organize? Who's in charge of organizing? Wouldn't that make them hierarchists?</p>
