Holly Blob (Cambridge, MD)
Date: 02/16/2009
If I'm remembering accurately, this big green thing was a holly tree done as a topiary blob.
Courthouse (Cambridge, MD)
Date: 02/16/2009
At least, i think it was the courthouse building. It certainly was the most imposing building in the town.
Back of Yellow Building (Cambridge, MD)
Date: 02/16/2009
I don't know whether the occupant of this building was distinctive, but I liked the look of the back of the building and the way the sun was positioned.
Alley by Yellow Building (Cambridge, MD)
Date: 02/16/2009
I liked the shape of the alley and the shadow from the yellow building, so it seemed worth photographing.
Old Bank Building (Cambridge, MD)
Date: 02/16/2009
Apparently this staid, very stable building was originally built to house a bank; I don't know it's current use.

Croque-Monsieur I (Bistro Poplar, Cambridge, MD)
Date: 02/16/2009
I ordered the dish that Lisa recommended, their Croque-Monsieur. I thought perhaps it would be a light luncheon, but I wasn't quite correct.
Croque-Monsieur II (Bistro Poplar, Cambridge, MD)
Date: 02/16/2009
From another angle; Lisa's order looked rather similar to mine.
A Side of Spinach I (Bistro Poplar, Cambridge, MD)
Date: 02/16/2009
Thinking that a mere sandwich and some pommes frites might be too little to satisfy my appetite, I ordered a side of spinach. It was deliciously prepared, but I was sure wrong about matching my appetite to the size of the lunch.
A Side of Spinach II (Bistro Poplar, Cambridge, MD)
Date: 02/16/2009
Spinach in a composition with Isaac's sausage.

Grass (Cambridge, MD)
Date: 02/16/2009

Abandoned House I (Maryland Eastern Shore)
Date: 02/16/2009
I saw this abandoned house as we drove along the edge of the Blackwater Wildlife Preserve. I insisted that we stop the car so I could get out and take a number of photographs. It looked to me like something from a Hopper painting, or maybe one by Wyeth.
Abandoned House II (Maryland Eastern Shore)
Date: 02/16/2009
It seemed to express different emotions -- or maybe different shades of neglect and abandonment -- depending on where I put it in the composition.
Abandoned House III (Maryland Eastern Shore)
Date: 02/16/2009
Or maybe it's an image of lonliness.

A Church in Motion
Date: 02/17/2009
This was simply not a very good shot I got of this church alongside the highway, but I sort of liked the way it got blurred, so there you go.
