Quiet Moment
Walking through Balboa Park sometime ago... I spotted this gentleman resting with his bag of recyclables. A perfect, perhaps Divine, streak of sunlight draped over him and his bag of soda cans. All while a Saint looks over him.

Huntington Beach, Ca. Winter months bring exceptionally low tides.
Mochi (taken with a Canon 20D)
Mochi is also made into a New Year's decoration called kagami mochi (鏡餅, kagami mochi), formed from two round cakes of mochi with a bitter orange (橙, daidai) placed on top. The name daidai is supposed to be auspicious since it means "several generations."
Osechi-Ryori (taken with a Canon 20D)
Osechi-ryōri (御節料理 or お節料理) are traditional Japanese New Year foods.
Last Meal of 2008 (taken with an iPhone)
Shin-Sen-Gumi Hakata ramen. My order: Hakata Ramen, extra firm noodle, strong broth, topped with char-siu and spicy miso. An order of gyoza and a seaweed salad accompanied my ramen (gyoza was consumed rapidly prior to this photo being taken).
