City Scenes...Autumn Afternoon

Alum Rock neighborhood

I passed by this playset (while driving) and I had to stop to take a picture. I like the color, the faded white picket fence, and the stillness of the old playset. This image carries a sort of nostalgia that immediately drew me in.

Plata de Arroyo Park

 

Penitencia Creek Park

The last time I was here was freshman year of high school to catch bugs for a biology project. That time, courage got the best of me and I approached some geese only to be CHASED DOWN. Having watched Alfred Hitchcock's "Birds," I was of course terrified! Well, lucky for me, the same thing happened this time when I got a little too close to take pictures. And yes, I ran and screamed like I did when I was a 14 year old highschooler.
