A weathered Coca-Cola ghost sign stretches across brick like a fading promise—Delicious and Refreshing still whispering through chipped paint and sun-bleached letters. Once a universal price, the nickel lingers as a relic of abundance, reminding the street how value, time, and taste all erode, leaving memory stubbornly intact.

Another one from my 2024 trip to Japan. Somewhere between Asakusa and Yanaka in Japan - #photo #photography #nikonphotography #z5 #Japan #JapanPics #UrbanGaze #Streetphotography
Quiet city street in Japan with covered sidewalks, low-rise buildings, overhead power lines, and a street sign reading “Asakusa Senbon-dori”.

A subway platform holds its breath as the train slides in, its motion blurred against the stillness of waiting figures. Lines, barriers, and light divide movement from pause, capturing that quiet interval where routine becomes momentarily suspended.

Reykjavík weather update.

The average precipitation in January for the city is 75 mm (rain/snow).

So far, we've had 0.5 mm this year. Next week's forecast shows zero precip., and one small chance thru the 26th.

Great for aurora hunting, terrible for the flora and fauna.

Photo of a photographer on a foggy night - #photo #photography #nikon #nikond3500 - @starrytraveler.bsky.social I wished that I had brought the Z5II instead.

A row of vintage cameras displayed on a white tabletop, including a twin-lens reflex camera and several compact film cameras, arranged among small brown capybara figurines standing upright. The background is plain white, giving the scene a clean, minimalist look.

A straight stretch of active train track disappearing off into the distance. There is old disused and retired caboose on a side track to the left and some sort of industry in the distance on the right.

Rising quietly from a crown of dark foliage, the circular tower stands apart—part instrument, part monument. Its pale structure catches the open sky while the hillside below dissolves into shadow, as if the land itself is holding its breath. Framed by leaves and palms, the scene feels observed rather than observing, a reminder that some places exist to watch time pass, not to interrupt it.

Close up on a Holiday Display - #AlphabetChallenge #WeekXforXMAS #photo #photography #nikon #nikonz5 #z5 #macromonday #macro
A close-up view of a miniature Christmas village building labeled “J. Horsley Christmas Cards.” The detailed model features a small tan door with frosted windowpanes, a holiday wreath with a red bow, and a lantern mounted beside it. The stone-textured walls and dim, moody lighting give the scene a cozy, nostalgic atmosphere. A bay window with yellow-tinted panes sits to the left, while an ornate signboard hangs on the right, its text blurred.

A weathered fence post and a tangle of wild grasses stand in silhouette against a sky washed pale by the rising sun. The horizon glows with that quiet, early-day haze when the world hasn’t quite decided on its colors yet. Dew clings to the blades, catching the low light, while the fields stretch out in gentle gradients toward the soft, glowing orb lifting itself into the day. It’s a moment caught between stillness and becoming—where the sky, tender and luminous, feels close enough to touch.
