5th Avenue Memorial, New York
Walking up 5th Avenue in New York during my visit in October, I was struck by what appeared to be a yellow fence around a church. On closer inspection, it turned out to be a memorial for casualties of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Members of Marble Collegiate Church at 5th Ave and 29th St had hung yellow ribbons and name cards for each person killed in the conflict on their church railings and others had added their own tributes later.

I was looking back at my "Best of 2009" blog post and realised that I had missed one of my favourite photos from this summer's trip back to Scotland. It appeared on my photoblog but I hadn't uploaded it to Flickr so here it is.
Uploaded on Jan 1, 2010 Farmhouse, Johnson City, Texas
We took a trip out to Johnson City last weekend and dropped in on the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park. The section of the park inside Johnson City contains various historical buildings including this farmhouse. The boys also found the best climbing tree in Texas, a photo of which I will likely post later.

A Million Points of Light
We took a drive out to Johnson City this afternoon and ended up wandering around the headquarters of the Pedernales Electric Company which is famed for its Christmas lights. Allegedly they hang 1,000,000 lights in the trees around the building. While I didn't count them, given the amazing show I can imagine that this is something like the right number. You can find a wide-angle shot I took at the same place last year over here.

Reflected Roses
Roses on the piano in the Driskill Hotel, Austin. I'm pretty sure I prefer this version to the one posted here. It's sharper and doesn't have the huge, blown-out highlight in the middle of the frame. Let me know what you think, though.
