arcs (with spikes)

I mean, sure, these are pretty. The spiky arcs (and the way they repeat themselves.) The golden light. The contrast with the green.

But don’t be fooled: those things will stab you without a second thought.

Low light. A felt hat. A grosgrain ribbon band. Feathers. A piece of twine. Deep shadows.

That is all. And that’s all I needed.

lamp/light

This? Oh just a fascinating shadow that I saw on the corner of Pickney and W. Cedar Streets. I’m going to pretend that I just knew the name of the intersection off the top of my head, but if you think it actually took me a few minutes just now on Google street view to figure it out, you would not be wrong.

I really like how the best things you see when you’re walking around are things you probably would have never even thought about until you saw them. This little collection of stuff on the sidewalk in Beacon Hill was quite interesting, even if the people giving me the side-eye while I made somewhere between 5 and 42 photographs didn’t think so. I know I’m right and I know they’re…not.

Halloween meant it was time to start putting up Christmas lights on the trees in the Common. It also meant that I got to photograph the workers, because, well, you know.
