The capacity to "tell a story" with a given photograph is always present in my mind whenever shooting, even though this might not be possibly accomplished all the time.

With this in mind, several months ago I begun posting periodic " FOTO-snacks", as

some of you might have noticed on my Facebook pages, these being individual images totally not connected with each other, whose only purpose is to give to anyone paying attention a little "snack" to savor and enjoy in the moment...

This month PHOTOBLOG is a collection of such "snacks", all of which I have enjoyed over the last several years, and which I hope will provide a similar degree of visual pleasure to you as well!

The CLE "Guardian" image, always a favorite of mine, way before the Tribe became the "Guardians"...

Above, the Terminal Tower within the "C", Lady Justice in front of the Justice Center downtown, a portrait of zucchini flowers at an Italian market, Summer moments on our River and on the beach in Naples, a vintage Alfa, a special family portrait, a beautiful flower... and more!

A discarded Christmas deer, ingloriously ending its days on someone's tree lawn, waiting for its final flight...

Venetian gondolas "parked" on the Grand Canal by St. Mark Square, as they have for centuries! Unusual Christmas decoration seen at a Florida Mall, with, above, a night view of CLE downtown, always exciting to admire...

"Horsing around" outside the Rocky River Metro Park stables, and an aerial view of the main building of the West Side Market.

A quiet early morning moment on our beach; fishing on the Gulf, while a beautiful and very civil heron awaits its share...

A sand castle captured just before sunset, the always spectacular " Chandelier" on Euclid Avenue by the Theater District, and, finally, our "boys of Summer", the Cleveland INDIANS, still on top of their division this year, before they became the "Guardians"...
