arms full of jesus
I really can’t understand why I actively avoided doing street photography for a really long time. But I guess I got to it when my brain was ready. Or whatever.
At any rate, here’s a woman I saw in downtown El Paso last month. She and Jesus were out taking a bit of a stroll and they were kind enough to pause for 1/480th of a second.

sign maker, searching for words
I watched this young man take a very long time, scrolling through his phone, looking for the words he needed to say.
Finally, he found what he wanted and began making a sign.

Orwell: a prophet
I read 1984 while I was in high school, when the dreaded year was still a decade in the future. The book scared me and I never reread it.Scenes from it are still vivid in my mind and the awful feeling Orwell’s words gave me has never completely left.
Anyway, here we are in 2026, a fucked-up year (already) and the words are, sadly, relevant. And even more frightening.

we trust
I am used to seeing roadside memorial along roadsides: I’ve photographed them for a very long time.
But what I can’t get used to is seeing them in town. This one is directly across the street from the police headquarters, which seems to add some drama and mystery to the memorial. I haven’t been able to find out anything about what happened or why there’s an upside-down Puerto Rican flag there or why those flowers seem to be not very old.
