This old barn is located north of Dundas. This is the second time using this lens: Nikkor 35 mm. f/2.0. I am liking it.

The sign says, "PARKING FOR PARENTS WITH INFANTS". I won't try and come up with an excuse for the biker.

A black and white photo of a mall parking lot in front of a grocery store. There is a large motorcycle parked in a spot that has been reserved for parents with infants. Possibly the rider is a parent, with an infant at home...

The old Federal Building on James St.N. in Hamilton. A large bird, possibly a migrating eagle is above the building.

A black and white photo of the old Feederal Building on James St. N. in Hamilton. Above the right top corner of the building a large bird was flying over the city. It appeared to be too large to be a gull so may have been a migrating eagle.

When you start examining behaviour and trying to eliminate unwanted personality types, the list grows exponentially. These people are drawn to power and are the least qualified, or prepared to lead. They are common in corporate culture as well.
