Attempts at a coverup

020515

Actually, I believe there were at least two attempts:

* that stucco around the top of the window has had something done to it
and
* obviously those signs in the window are hiding something.

And, of course, those curtains are pretty suspicious, now that I think about it.

Rosary, as belt

That rosary, as a belt. Those worn-out knees.

There’s nothing more to say.

The stars, at night

The old Granada Theatre has been repurposed as an event center; the set-up for an upcoming event took on a magical glow from the sparkly chandelier, the softly draped tablecloths, and those stars.

And because there’s a certain song stuck in my mind, I’ll share it with you so you can have it stuck, too!

An ad hoc arrangement

If you are the sort of person who appreciates orderly arrangements, even in alleys, this would not be a good place to go. There’s not one single thing here that looks like someone planned it; instead it has the feel of having just sprouted up, like weeds after a soaking rain.

Two things to note:
1. That window on the left really IS wonky; that’s not an unresolved lens issue.
2. Check out the concrete blocks holding up the meters!
