Fuyu kaki - Japanese fuyu persimmon


One of my favorite Autumn fruit is the Japanese Fuyu persimmon, Although autumn has gone months ago, and I took this persimmon photo years ago, I am ressurecting it here for the orange gallery over at 52 photos.

winter ride


This winter has not been as cold as the previous winter, so I've been out on bike rides more often than last winter. It was warm enough last month to even ride without my orange jacket. I finally decided to explore the bike route in the photo which will be a wonderful way to get from my house to the Ferry! The fence is ugly but it's there to prevent cars from using this route.

GORGEOUS image, Juana! Persimmons are such a pretty fruit--such a pretty soft, orange. Fun with your Polaroids too! So good you've been able to get out and bike more this winter.

It took me about 6 months to plan the logistics of bringing her from Mexico to Japan. Since I had to fly via the U.S. on Mexicana Airlines and Korean Airlines, that meant 4 countries and two airlines would need to approve her transport. There were many details to keep track of for each country and airline. After 6 months of stressful planning, 16 hours of two airline flights and layovers, She made it to Japan safely! Korean Air allowed her to fly with me as my carry-on luggage, which was a relief for me. No worrying about whether she was scared or left at the Los Angeles airport!

bird watching and staying home for the summer

Usually summer means several bicycle-camping trips, but with COVID19 still around, we are staying home. In the meantime, I have been pretty productive with my 100 Self Portraits project.
