Where Eagles Learn to Soar

Nikon D810, 1/800, f/9.0, 24mm

This is the building for the First Flight Corp flying school at Brown Field Municipal Airport. I was killing time there awaiting a fir tend and really liked the peeling paint and old time feel of the building.

This is Harper’s Topiary Garden in San Diego, CA. The front yard of this home is a steep hillside, so not very useful. This couple decided that the Edward Scissorhands look was just what the property needed. I did not like the green color dominating the image, so I went with the black and white look leaving the sign in its original rustic color.

Do You Trust The Suspension Bridge?

I could not get a really good image of the Spruce Street Suspension Bridge, so a picture of the plaque will have to do. This is a nice bridge connecting two neighborhoods on either side of the Kate Sessions Canyon. The bridge is well worth a diversion from wherever you are headed in San Diego.
