If you are following me on Facebook, chances are, you probably had a chance to view my "Your Social Distancing Photo of the Day" feature in the last two months. I retired that feature and here are the 60 photos that were in that collection - my interpretation of social distancing as expressed in my photography.

Exactly 16 years ago today, I participated in a ChiFlickr photowalk at Maxwell St. Market when it was still on Canal Street about two blocks east of its present location on Desplaines. (It also seems like today's market when it was open is a shadow of its former selves - I believe it had moved to various locations.) The walk was held by the ChiFlickr group on flickr.com.

The Groin @ Hollywood Beach, Chicago Long before "Social Distancing" has become a buzz phrase, I've been taking photos of people practicing social distancing. Here's a retrospective I have collected since social distancing myself, that is, digging deep into my more than 2 terabytes (!) of mostly crappy pictures taken digitally over the years ... not to mention the boxes and boxes of prints too.

One of the best ways to get a respite from your busy life is to sit down in a corner of the Judy Istock Butterfly Haven at Chicago's Nature Museum and watch these beautiful insects flutter by. It is so relaxing and mesmerizing. Some will even attempt to land on you. They are closed right now because of COVID-19 but they will be opening soon. Meanwhile, have a little stroll through these pictures taken a few years ago.

Found these old files (ca 2001) of a visit to New York City just after George Harrison died. We were fortunate enough to stray toward Strawberry Fields in Central Park to witness a gathering paying tribute to the beloved Beatles. Strawberry Fields is an area of Central Park dedicated to the memory of former Beatles member John Lennon. It is named after the Beatles' song "Strawberry Fields Forever", written by Lennon… [ 39 more words ]

North Pond, June 13, 2018 Chicago's North Pond is described by the Chicago Park District as a "natural area, located within Lincoln Park, a 12.5 acres of native aquatic and upland prairie habitat. Originally, this site was a scrub oak sand dune, which eventually became a dumping ground before it was converted into the natural area it is today." As part of the natural flyway of migratory birds, this is an incredible place to bird watch where sometimes exotic species would come by and rest. [ 111 more words ]

Ta Nei Temple is one of the less popular and less visited temples located in the northwest corner of the East Baray reservoir. It is hidden amid a thick jungle and can be reached by unpaved winding roads. It is a small temple built in the 12th century, with lots of ruins and boulders strewn about. There seems to be some restoration going on, but not much. [ 61 more words ]

In the summer of 2018, I visited this incredible public market in the northeast side of the zocalo (main plaza _of Mexico City's central historic district. While this market sells traditional goods, it is a little bit different because it quite progressive, even post-revolutionary, it is described, as it has areas for day care, auditorium, I think even a garden, and art ...
