from urbanizing to urbanism, 2014, according to Facebook cover photos
During a year filled with four trips abroad and two months away, many of my 2014 Facebook cover photos helped fill my yearly urban and exurban diaries.
Themes address the overlapping (and therefore hardly mutually exclusive) nuances of habitation, history, cityscape, landscape and ecology.
France, Italy, Monaco, Scotland, Spain and the United States all unfold below according to these categories, in a fashion intended to memorialize an extraordinary 2014.
Habitation
History
Cityscape
Landscape
Ecology

viewing urban, 2015
My first two images of 2015 really don’t need captions or narrative. At a glance, they show the viewable factors of context and color, light and dark, land and water, nature and structure, where people work and live and more.
These viewable factors are all rudiments of what we see in an urbanizing world, and suggest balances ripe for the ongoing dialogues of sustainability, climate change, the shared economy and assurance of equity along the way.
Happy New Year, plain and simple, from Seattle, urbanely photogenic for its first sunset portraits of the year.
