About Me
- Steve Ponio
- hi everyone, i see that life is not forever. i saw so much i wish i could remember. over time, i learned to hate the negitiveness of life and dwell in the world of art, where time has little meaning. click on pictures to enlarge. many are from costa rica, but i mix it up. share site with a friend. at the end of photos it might say older posts, click on that to see more. click under my photo where it says view my complete profile for more blog sites.
