rainbow

these are pictures of the stripes and colors in the rainbow i came upon on my last morning in Waikiki in early December..

calm after a quick morning rain on waikiki beach...

searching for a pot of gold...

lamp post, palm tree, fountain,tourist....

 

 

 

in sharp contrast today, back in New York, i put on black and white polk dot gloves for my morning walk to greet the balmy day;

i walked up to one of my favorite Columbia oriented delis for an egg sandwich and came face to face with a counter full of black and white cookies;

later in the day, while running errands in my neighborhood, i kid you not,  i passed a man walking one black, one white Scottie dog. they were on red leashes....

i passed a chess game being played beneath some blue scaffolding by a book seller's stand. 

 

when i ran back to take a photo, the men had broken down the game for the day and only the empty board remained, the bag of chessmen wrapped in a plastic bag.  it did not make for much of a photo.

 

not a rainbow exactly, but a black and white in color kind of winter day ....
