Photoblogging: Homework


Click for bigger, easily twice as fabulous.

I shot the above this morning on the Green Line at about 7:45. I looked up and saw what appeared to be a bizarrely incongruous scene, and immediately dove for my camera. Upon reflection, the event wasn't particularly unusual (especially considering the proximity of the Aveda Institute to the Gallery Place station), but I couldn't be more pleased with the photo.

Is that a snuff box? I like the way that guy has his hand against the pole. There are a lot of things I like about this photo -- thanks for sharing!

For a moment I thought this was a self-portrait of you, PSP, after being arrested in a war protest with Adam Kokesh.

But you'd have taken the curlers out, natch.

I am reminded of one of my favorite lines from Chappelle's Show.

"Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a bitch?"

Comedy, as we know, is not pretty.

PSP- this seems like a moment that was just waiting for your Royal Highness to happen upon, camera in hand.

Just realizing its been awhile since Adam Kokesh has been seen. Thanks Jess.

A googling I go!

And Matty nailed it!

I love the heads. One of my students who was going to the voc. center left hers in my classroom at the end of one year... she became our clear-eyed touchstone.
