The flower box at the cafe (you can see a face inside the window) is actually in New Zealand.  New Zealand is a very beautiful place.  The sheep photo is there too.  Maybe soon I will add a page of New Zealand itself. 

The monorail and space needle are in Sydney.  There were so many different and beautiful flowers there.  The rose is held by my wife Jan in Darling harbor, in front of a white pole about 20 feet behind it.  It is really a sharp photo and prints rather well.  The camera was under a megapixel!

The mound of dirt is... a termite mound!  They are protected by law I understand although they eat 35,000 homes a year!  I heard they build up out of the soil to be cooler!
