slide damage
I have a small body of work that includes playground equipment. Slides are particularly well-represented, for some reason.*
This slide, which looks to have had an encounter with a vehicle, is my current favorite. (And will be, too, until I the next time I see a playground that needs photographing.)

*I like them. That’s the reason.
christmas
In case you don’t know this: in New Mexican restaurants, you’ll get the choice to have your food topped with either red or green chile. And if you’re bold enough to want both, it’s called “Christmas.” And that’s what I was thinking about when I spotted this scene and made this photo. (On a side note: if you want to use the west-facing aluminum window frame to brace your arm while you make some images, you may need to seek medical treatment for burns to your skin. FYI.)

very high
I mean, it’s not dangerous enough to fix the letters on the sign to remove any confusion, but still: be careful.

in storage
There’d been a fire at this building. And now, for some reason, it’s being used to store used office furniture. It was weird and surreal in the way that of course will cause me to stop and make approximately All The Photos before getting back on the road.
