Everyday People - I Love Them

When I'm out taking pictures I've usually got a song going round and round in my head. Lately I've had the music of Sly & the Family Stone looping in my head like an old 8 track tape player - it's wonderful! So, with "Everyday People" as the background for my photo excursion here we go!

For me there's nothing everyday about everyday people - we're all special.

Sometimes I just sit in one place and watch the world go by.

I'm watching you, you're watching me.

Kids make the world a better place.

Everyday people are full of expression.

Looks like somebody needs a little boost.

The park bench was created with the everyday people in mind.

Couples are good.

Just the two of us, we can make it if we try
-- Bill Withers

I'm seeing red!

Walking and thinking, thinking and walking.

Everyday people have things on their mind.

A man with good posture will go far in life.

Sometimes I'm right and I can be wrong
My own beliefs are in my song
The butcher, the banker, the drummer and then
Makes no difference what group I'm in
I am everyday people, yeah yeah
-- Sly Stone

Get me to the church on time!

Classy mother

I'll meet you at the Gourmand,
We'll eat, we'll talk
We'll enjoy the experience
It'll be fun

I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
-- Larry Weiss

Some days are better than others.

Some people were meant to be together
Some people were meant to fall in love

Another rough day at the office.

It's all in the eyes.

Heading to the market...

...need to buy some vegetables for a summer salad.

Baby, it's hot out here!

Yea, it's real hot out here!

The hedge fund manager.

The Mother and Daughter bond of love.

The cool summer dress.

A happy couple

The streets are full of beautiful people

The dude.

Yokohama is the real city of love.

The bride wore flip-flops to the wedding; that's what makes everyday people so special.

Strike a pose and I'll take your picture.

The runner!

Now for a high speed run through the streets of China Town.

Shopping makes me happy!

I am no better and neither are you
We are the same whatever we do
You love me you hate me you know me and then
You can't figure out the bag I'm in
-- Sly Stone

Three Amigos

It's good to get out and do something.

This is my favorite coffee shop.

Cafe Veloce Yokohama - Clean, comfortable, inexpensive, and darn good coffee too!

Contemplation - deep reflective thought.

Last shot of the day:
Say a prayer, make a wish, hope for the best
It's everyday people that make my world go round

Thanks for stopping by!
