INDIAN HILL

Stags work with live pitching on a sun-filled Saturday at Arce Field. Nothing but net. Sultan of swing Claremont McKenna Football Coach Steve Retzlaff does grill duty during a baseball intra-squad game. Young archer takes aim. Rack of bows. Open Range Father and daughter share a moment together on the range. On a sunny Saturday on opposite sides of the street, archers and ballplayers work on fundamentals of bow and arrow, bat and ball, alongside a sizzling grill stuffed full of chicken and pineapple.   A vista of snow-capped San Gabriel Mountains rising in the background, the drifting charcoal smoke of slow grilling chicken and ribs brings it all back home. 

January morning finds great light as street art peeks around corners and wakes the neighborhood. Detail is nice if you want to left-click, either once or twice. The color is alive and the grain of brick and surfaces used in these pieces has texture and grit.                                           Reptilian Heritage                                     Wandering eye..   Ranches, fruit orchards, packing houses, the legacy of the Pomona Valley.                When the back of a bar looks better than the front of the place, that should tell you something. And this is the back, or side door.                                       Let's be kids again...

  Down an alley alongside the tracks, an ever changing palette in hazy light.                                             Urban Legend                                            Mythic Proportion                                 Pomona cool--see what I mean?                                   Santa Maria Market                         EVERYTHING. . .EVERYTHING. . .clothing Color explodes in the old downtown Pomona.  Markets abandoned, buildings on corners, art on the street, shoot and run. For more detail, single-left-click on photos, either once or twice.  Hit the arrow-back to return. Thanks for checking it out.
