I lived in San Francisco for many years. They bought old trams from cities around the world and restored them before putting them on the streets along with the wonderful cable cars. They are beautiful and much more enjoyable.

Nah, the roots seem ok.
The teeth are from a predatory carnivore. Possibly prowling about outside your home as you are reading this. Well at least in the warmer weather, may be having a winter sleep about now.

The Vigili de Fuoco helicopter flying low over an olive grove on its way to refill with water from a nearby pond to fight a brush fire in one of the dry canyons. Shot from the edge of a high cliff with my D70 f/5.6 1/8000 sec. David

Some time ago i was hired to shoot one of the gigs of Bill Wyman (and the rhytm kings) I was warned by the management to watch my words when interviewing him and certainly not to mention the rolling stones as he is a very difficult person. When i met him back stage i was nervous on how i would adress him, but as i've experienced more than once with "stars" is that they are often over protected by their management and are not half the "A" holes that you were led to believe. To make a long story short, Bill was a very nice down to earth guy. Yes he was bitter about what happened with the "stones" but wasn't afraid to talk about it, Surely when he performes as Bill Wyman as a reporter one should realise he wants to be recognised as an individual artist and not as a (has been) part of the rolling stones.

I address any celebrity as sir. or Ms Whatever. It shows respect, they usually tell me what name to use.
Wyman is like that old school chum of mine Steve Morrissey, he doesnt like talking about the very thing that got him where he was. I've met a few knob-head celebs.

My still lifes may be masterpieces (thank you ) but your imagination is way beyond mine. I had to look hard to find the insane girl with the badly inflamed foot. There is an object beginning with Y in this collection. Yucca Fruit. Yard stick. Queen of clubs Yellow garment. Yellow brass cartridge.
