The Sky Queen Combs Her Hair

The ride home this afternoon caught :B by surprise. "What amazing looking clouds!" he thought. So he took some pictures in order to share the interesting scene. "Looks like Sky Queen is coming her hair!?" he thought. Then it was time to get some food. :)

:E & :B Enjoying Time Together

It was one year later, and the two dreamers enjoyed each others company still. Most of the time they played silly games, chasing the moon, and wishing on stars. It had been a magically beautiful time. "If I live for 10,000 lifetimes, I hope always to remember this wonderful year with you," said :B. "Don't think too much," replied :E serenely.

Sunrise Crossing the Whitestone

It was a beautiful warm November morning (rare) as :B crossed the Whitestone bridge on the way home. Lovely indeed.  Here is an over-the-shoulder view from the mid-span of the Whitestone facing East to catch the dawn.  Sneaky shot, but it worked out nicely.

Three Sights At the Street Fair

Our two heroes took a pleasant stroll one evening through the mystical precincts of the Street Fair on 14th Street in NYC. It was warm for November and quite pleasant. They had a nice time together, laughing and nibbling on what the great city had to offer.

Edge of the City at Dusk

It was just getting dark when the young hero entered the edge of the city from the north.  As the day was one of portentous mystical energies it was not entirely surprising to see the heavens filled with cloudly animals marching in a star-strewn parade over head.

Fishy Monster

Once in a while Love Monster liked to go for a swim in the deepest seas of Dreamland, just to see who he might meet there. When he would do that he put on his favorite swimming outfit and would transform at once into Fishy Monster. He had wonderful friends in the deepest sea, and wherever he went the other monsters were always nice to him. That is because he was nice to them, and would give a little smile and acknowledge them politely. And as it turns out, when you are nice, even to monsters, they may be nice to you in return. This is Love Monster's big secret, which he never wants to keep secret but always tries his best to explain to everyone. But monsters being as they are seldom listen to Fishy Monster's advice. It's ok though. He still has a nice time anyway.

Love Monster

Once upon a time in Dreamland there lived a wondrous beast named Sleep Monster. Well, she was quite an amazing creature, full of shaggy black fur, and pillows, and so very comfy to lay down on. Anyway, this is not a picture of Sleep Monster... it is a picture of her very dear pet named Love Monster. He was very cute in a brutish and ferocious sort of way, but she liked him just the same. And so Sleep Monster and Love Monster lived happily in Dreamland together for a long, long time.

Gentleman of the Wilderness

In some distant time, in a place not so far away, a young and serene soul listens to the voice of the mountains, and baths in the lights of the moon and stars.  No thoughts buffet his mind... his spirit soaring into the heavens.

Autumn Tree Against the Sky

There at the margin between the fading summer and the beginning of autumn there stood a brave soul, a tree against the sky, defying the end of those sweet lazy days when love and warmth blossomed in the hearts of those who had ears to hear, and eyes to see.

Autumn Sunset

It was a quiet and peaceful journey as we passed from summer into autumn ... the leaves turned colors, the air grew cool, and the fiery sun settled in for the long night.   Somehow, everything was just as it should be, one way or another.

Season of the Monkey King

One night Sun Wu Kong was drinking Sake in the good Season, and having a nice time drew this little drawing ...

Fiery Sunrise Over White Plains

Returning from early morning Sword Practice... behold, the Purple Chi Gathers in the East.

American Flag By the Pond

It was a spectacularly pretty day as Moon-Princess and White Rabbit strolled around the park grounds. This sight caught their eyes, and so a photograph was taken for posterity.
