Inside: Photos of eyeballs, bees, eyeballs, blue hands, and eyeballs. Also inside: Thoughts I want you to read and to live by and, when especially inspired, to set to opera. Also inside: my fight against vegetable tyranny. Just a little something I do so you don’t have to. You're welcome. Come on in and get your jibber jabber on!

Great photo! I know exactly where this is (proably many do; same condo/garage where they filmed a British commercial a couple years ago, driving a car off the edge and into the Chicago River below...). This photo somehow exactly captures the geometry of why this parking garage facinates me. It is a very mathematical photo. Which is a good thing! Well done!!
Looks like a Matchbox car dream.
Very sad photograph. An artistic '10', but very sad image.
Why is it a sad photograph Anonymous?
I don't know whether Anonymous will respond, but I respect his/her opinion here. Not that it's especially sad to me apart how grainy it is.
Sorry if this already posted -- I'm having blog blackout this morning. But with this "grainy" comment, are you already starting with the new camera plea that I thought was reserved for Xmas? Man, and it ain't even Halloween yet...
I don't know quite why, Techno. But any image depicting a mass of people going about their business inside their routines doing what they need to do is sad to me because for some other unknown reason I always assume the majority of them feel very much alone, whereas images of a solitary barber sweeping his empty porch or a librarian sitting in silence surround by thousands of dusty untouched books resonate in a wholly different way, as peaceful, if not sublime. Maybe I'm convinced that living lonely is exponentially worse when you're surround by a mass of people you greet daily by name then it is when you are actually alone, and that's why this picture (and this one: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_q_AYHe6MQ3k/SnTmjnsBUcI/AAAAAAAACbQ/wiYORd_qXN4/s1600-h/IMG_7080.JPG) make me sad. :0)
A--that makes sense to me. I can understand other interpretations as well, of course, but I certainly get yours.
