I took this photo post game at Heinz Field in 2019. It was nice capturing Pittsburgh Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin and Seattle Seahawks Quarterback Russell Wilson chatting with each other. You could tell there was mutual respect between them.
Somewhere in Sedona
I don’t remember where this spot was within the Sedona, Arizona area….. But I loved these dead trees……
Regensburg Clock Tower
This college town was the start of our 2019 European river cruise down the Danube River. This is a great little city….
Pittsburgh Spring
With 2020 lost to COVID, I didn’t get out and take as many photos as I normally would, and that has carried over into 2021. I’m just not motivated or energized like I was in the past….. Maybe work has taken a toll on me?? Regardless, I need to get out of this funk. So, I haven’t taken any spring photos this year. Therefore, here is one from 2019 down near the Clemente Bridge in downtown Pittsburgh.
Ready For Football
I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for the 2021 NFL season. We have a few more months before pre-season yet, but thankfully it’ll be here before we know it. I captured this photo of Ben in Buffalo last season.
Hospital Lobby
This is the Pripyat Hospital lobby inside the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. This hospital received and cared for the firefighters who responded to the nuclear reactor disaster when the Chernobyl accident occurred. All of the firefighters died of radiation exposure.
Favorite Grand Cayman Pool Spot
MJ and I have used these two loungers more times than I want to admit….. They sit at a wonderful spot on the Kimpton Seafire Resort property.
Danube River Cruising
Here is the Gate 1 Travel river cruise boat called Monarch Princess sitting in the Danube River at Regensburg Germany.
Red Light
Here is another drone photo of the South Haven Light on Lake Michigan. I took this photo 40 minutes after sunset last October.
Budapest City Street
I honestly couldn’t remember which city this was form unit I zoomed in on the bus. Either I’m getting too old or there have been too many trips. It has to be age because you can never have too many trips.
Miami Beach Pool
What more can I say? This is, what it is. Confidante Hotel and Spa in Mid-Beach area of Miami Beach.
Parliament
The Hungarian Parliament building on the Danube River is just wonderful during the day and at night. I could take pictures of it nonstop….
Pripyat Cultural Center Gym
I liked how they painted this basketball floor blue back when it was built in the 1970s. The windows are long gone along with the floor’s finish, but you can still see the paint and lines for the court. At some point, I want to go back to Chernobyl for some additional exploration.
UFO Observation Deck
This space craft shaped observation deck and restaurant sit high above the bridge over the Danube River in Bratislava Slovakia.
Rays of Sunshine
Arriving at downtown Pittsburgh from this bridge is one of the few great city entrances. You can’t see the city driving towards it due to Mt. Washington and then you enter the tunnel, which is maybe a mile lone (not totally sure on that distance). As soon as you exit the tunnel, you are immediately on Fort Pitt Bridge and the city explodes into view. I’ve never found anything like it in any other city.
Downtown Pittsburgh Hyperlapse
Here is a short drone time lapse video (what DJI calls Hyperlapse) of downtown Pittsburgh from the Fort Pitt Bridge back down the Allegheny River. I captured this last Sunday morning before sunrise.
Colony Hotel
Not much I can say about this photo that you can’t see for yourself. This is, of course, a great example of South Beach Art Deco architecture during the pandemic.
Bonaire Turtle
In January 2020, we spent a week on the island of Bonaire with The Neighbors (our close friends and former neighbors). I loved the condo we rented on the beach, which allowed me to snorkel every day. One of those days, I spent a good ten minutes with this little guy.
West End
I captured this photo a few weeks ago, very early in the morning. That’s the only reason I could take this photo, otherwise the traffic would have been too busy. For those of you not from Pittsburgh, this is the West End Bridge.
Watt Attack
At the rate the Steelers are losing players during the 2021 free agency, T.J. Watt will be the only player they have left on defense. I took this photo in Cincinnati last season.
