As soon as the good times roll

The linguistic construction of normative values embodies the differentiation of commodified objects.

I made this one while outside waiting int he rain for our hotel to let us back in, after a fire alarm was triggered in the building. This happened just as we were returning to the hotel after dinner.

Here's another shot, where I knew I wanted a B&W image, and set the camera for B&W using one of the ART filters in the Olympus E-M5.

This is inside Saint Paul's Cathedral in London. These are the final stairs to the very top, the section just above where the public is allowed. If you are in London, I highly recommend visiting this wonderful old cathedral, enjoying the history, and certainly the views from on top of the dome.

The nostalgia for anxiety may be taken as the expropriation of pop culture.

Always looking up

Always looking up, a photo by fangleman on Flickr.


Only editing is contrast adjustment. flickr still sucks. Terribly slow. Terrible to use. A complete horror show of inefficiency. I am trying to visit contacts photos and comment, favorite, etc. However, this monstrosity of a website is killing my experience. flickr has made some improvements to the speed, but it's still too slow, and overall a bad experience.

Riding on the escalator of life

My apologies to Robert Hazard for the title...

The delegitimization of commodified objects can be subsumed under the reinscription of the anesthesia of forgetting.

When will I see you...again?
