Maudslay Park

Fall photos from Maudslay Park in Newburyport.

Also, some photos of the reflecting pool at the Christian Science Center.

Taken on a nice October weekend that started in the city and ended in the country.

Another photo’s been selected for Schmap. This time a photo of a Frittata at Trident Booksellers & Cafe in Boston:

See the photo in context at: Schmap entry for Trident Booksellers & Cafe (now for iPhone!)

This is my view most Saturday mornings: breakfast at the Trident Cafe, with a coffee to wake me up and a book to read.

Virgen de Guadalupe icon/wallpaper

Jobriga — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 03:06:33 +0000

Here are links to a square icon I created of the Virgen of Guadalupe, as well as a wallpaper for a large iMac. Click on either to view high-resolution versions

I thought others might like to have la Virgen on their computers, so I posted these images to Flickr for all to download and enjoy.

Blessed Miguel Pro – his photos

Blessed Miguel Pro – his photos, originally uploaded by Jobriga.

This image is quickly becoming my most popular Flickr photo – 114 views as of this writing. It is wonderful to think that Flickr can, in some small way, help show more people the story of this saint’s martyrdom.

Lone Star

Jobriga — Sat, 15 Mar 2008 03:21:05 +0000

The Lone Star appears throughout the state capitol in Austin, Texas. On the wooden seats, the gates, and the monuments dotting the landscape. It appears at the pinnacle of the dome in the center of the building, and is reflected in the floor at bottom. It’s a subtle reminder of the Lone Star state, without having the Texan flag waving throughout the building.

Here are a few photos of stars I noticed (click on any to view larger, Flickr version).

Katrina Triptych

Jobriga — Thu, 13 Mar 2008 03:51:35 +0000

Shown below: the “Katrina Tryptych” found in Mi Casa on South College Street in Austin, TX.

All panels are painted over silkscreens of the headlines from the tragedy.

Left panel: the weather pattern.

Center panel: Creole woman holding lilies, against the backdrop of a ruined New Orleans.

Right panel: New Orleans jazz funeral, with water flowing out of the frame and uniting all the panels.

The painted triptych was created by Channe Felton; posters are available though I can’t find ordering info online. If you find yourself on South College Street, swing in and take a look at this interesting shop.

Photos from Austin, TX

Jobriga — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 06:46:56 +0000

Now posted to Flickr, a photo album of photos taken around Austin, Texas. Mostly of the capitol building, where I spent an enjoyable Sunday morning walking around and snapping shots:

I need to get some words to go with these pictures, especially on the preponderance of the “Lone Star” symbol throughout the capital building.

Brain food

Jobriga — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 03:53:16 +0000

There is no finer dinner on the go than a good book, 20 McNuggets, and large fries.

Optimus Primes – Primeapalooza

Optimus Primes – Primeapalooza, originally uploaded by JasonCross.

Nice photo of Optimus Prime figures throughout the years. I own the one on the far right, which is the “Generation 1″ version and the daddy of them all.

Fountain in Boston

Jobriga — Mon, 08 Oct 2007 03:38:50 +0000

The fountain at the Christian Science Center was on tonight, and flowing twice as high as usual.
