Bridge in Baracoa, Cuba

In Baracoa, I became friends with the son of the housekeeper of the homestay where I was staying. He was working as self-employed barkeeper at an improvised beach bar on Playa Blanca, a hidden white beach near the city. On the way there, we crossed this bridge.

Photo in B&W of the Niagara Falls taken from the Canadian side, during winter. It is quite impressive to see and hear the amount of water going through the falls, so there is a huge cloud along the water fall. I tried to capture this cloud in the photo.

This photo has three great things that send California to the top, sage, skateboarding, and Sierra. Get up high to get down low. Flying by the sage and stare up at the blue, blue sky. Some of the highest mountains in North America behind... Happy 2020!

Visiting New York can be overwhelming. Taking a step back and getting out of Manhattan can help assimilate the beauty of this city if we discard the traffic, the smells, and busy people in a hurry.

Golden Glow In The Distance
Following a few days of rain and snow some clearing begins. Melting snow has Dry Creek flowing nicely while the cloud mass begins to break up with only intermittent snow showers occurring. Finally the light breaks through shining on a distant mountain giving off a golden glow. Sedona Arizona USA.

I love San Francisco. It is my favourite city in USA of the ones I have already visiter. Vibe there is nice, I just can not describe what exactly I like about it but I simply like it.

Cisco the ghost town
Abandoned town which lost its livelihood after Interstate 70 bypassed the state highway connecting Cisco. There were many abandoned homes and this was one of them. Colorful flowers and the rusted electric poles.

The white water walk in Niagara Falls, Canada. It was an attraction part of our ticket, so we went to check it out. Turns out, it was impressive and with very few people around. You get to see really close some really big white water rapids by following a nice pathway.
