Just beautiful Jon ... many thanks.Taken this afternoon in my back yard:
Love that shot Jon ... great composition, color and contrast ... as well as the mood/experience evoked.Another favorite, this was taken early morning in late December day several years back. Diners are a great place to meet up, especially for fueling up the body for an all day ride. On this morning, two of us were headed for Cape Cod and I took the picture before the other rider arrived for breakfast.
Some of the more senior folks who like to meet up at these diners seem to find some encouragement when they see an even older person show up on a motorcycle. As a side note, someone on another forum said the picture reminded him of artist Edward Hopper (e.g., Hopper's "Nighthawks" art). Anyway, this is a picture that will put a smile on my face should the time come when I can no longer ride.
My beautiful old homestead where I spent most of my childhood. Notice all the woods where I spent a great deal of time in. House was built in 1900 by my great grandfather. My room is the second dormer, just visible to the left.

well our place is in Marbella, near Puerto Banus.... so there's a good chance I know the restaurant. I'm pleased you loved itMany times - one of our best friends had a tapas restaurant in Marbella so we were frequent daytrippers when we visited them in Marbella.
They sold up six years ago and retired to St Kitts. That's where my husband and I were headed for a long vacation just before Covid happenedwell our place is in Marbella, near Puerto Banus.... so there's a good chance I know the restaurant. I'm pleased you loved it
