Martinez, 2

This is the same place as yesterday, only with a Lensbaby instead of my regular lens.

That selective focus makes it look like either the photographer or the building is in a hurry to be elsewhere.

I don’t think this place is in business any more. However, if it is still open, it might be a nice place to go in the summer: that’s a really big air conditioner there on the wall!

Maybe your interpretation of this image changes when you know it was taken in a cemetery?

Cold Air

The thing is that I hate cold weather.

But the other thing is that even though I hate cold weather, I can’t completely avoid going outside. And when I do, and when I get to see things like this at the nearby gas station, I hate the cold a little less.

Picket Fence

I seem to be on a bit of fence binge lately. There was the crowded one, the wire one, and the solitary one, and now these pickets.

What do you suppose is going on here? (Dreaming of fences can symbolize a need for privacy, or a desire to shut off the rest of the world. I’m not dreaming about fences, but am posting photos of them, so I don’t think that’s it. Let’s just go with “I like the way they look!”, shall we?)
