Sometimes you go looking for the sunset … sometimes the sunset finds you. That was the happy case this time when I went for a walk at dusk in December and ended up behind the Hotel del Coronado. The sun set off a brilliant display of colors over the course of just a few moments, and I was lucky enough to capture some of it.

This majestic shot of the Turbine Hall in the Tate Modern Museum in London is one of my personal faves from my September/October 3-week sojourn to the UK in 2018. The Tate is a bit high-falutin’ for my taste (but I love their gift shops!), and it’s certainly an amazing structure and a great reusage of an old power plant. Regardless of how I feel about it, I do visit every time I go to London.

We ease into the New Year with this lovely shot of my backyard, facing due east. I’m very lucky to have this as my view every day, and almost every day, that view is stunning. But sometimes, it’s incredible. This was one of those days, as the sun started to set and two random walkers came strolling up the path with San Diego Bay and the city as their backdrop.

May your 2019 be filled with the glorious and unknown, in equal parts and of friendly nature.

Today is the shortest day of the year and the official start of Winter, although it’s hard to believe that’s true here in San Diego. For those few that follow me–and/or peek in every once in a while–on here, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all. I had a great (and at times horrible) 2018, highlighted by the trip of the lifetime commemorated in the above image. I wish all of you the very best in 2019. I hope to have more of an online presence, including on this blog in the coming year. In the meantime (unabashed plug):

One thing I will definitely miss this year: my annual trip to New York City. I’ve gone to the Big Apple almost every year since 1971 (God, that’s almost 50 years now!). It started as a bus trip to go to comics conventions, but I quickly fell in love with the city outside the confines of a comics-filled hotel ballroom (I still love that, though). Here’s Gapstow Bridge in the southern part of Central Park, near the Plaza Hotel. It’s an amazing site for photos. I know I’ll get back to NYC soon … It just seems weird not making my usual fall pilgrimage.
