When up on the roof there arose such a clatter...

Forget snow. In Pasadena, it begins to look a lot like Christmas when you look up and notice giant reindeer perched on supersized ornaments. These are cropping up on the rooftops of buildings lining Colorado in Old Town. (I think they're hilarious and over-the-top goofy/joyful-- a combination that is always welcome here...)

134 Freeway Westbound

I honestly think I am to real photography what a butterfly catcher is to entymology. This is one of those haphazard shots that required virtually no skill or expertise to simply wave the camera out the car window and grab.

But isn't it cool?

(Thanks to my hubby for doing the driving.)

Us. Outside Ikea in Burbank.

The Towers Apartments

Located for at least 6 decades on El Molino at Del Mar in Pasadena. (Or is it somewhere in New York?) It's such a noir building -- but that jiggy-jaggy brickwork makes it silly, too. Now that's a unique combination...

Okay, so I don't just prowl around libraries at night. Sometimes I hang out under the Colorado Street Bridge in Pasadena.
