elaine: they are a bugger to photograph, and these ones aren't technically good, but i love the weird origami pose of the last one. i have loads of pictures of swans, mainly dreadful. even though they are big they are hard to photograph, i think it is becasue they are white...

in response to swans throwing shapes

Peter: i love swans. so graceful and beautiful.

Anonymous (user-12hdr7o.cable.mindspring.com): This entry is beautiful.

in response to Plum Beach

Peter: nice photos, jeeff. you have so many good ones of japan, dude!

in response to pensive technology

Nino: Reggaeton Mundial! keep the peace no sufrir ... Tego Calderon..

in response to Humboldt Park

jeeff: the 2nd one looks kind of like a toothy smile.

in response to pensive technology

Peter: i need to get up to the bronx more, thats for sure. this is a great photo.

in response to Bronx River Parkway Bridges

elaine: cool shape, that deserved a post of it's own

in response to The Bridges of New York City

elaine: you will be the weirdest american tourist anyone has seen here, cos all the stuff you will want to see will be so obscure

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

Peter: alas, someday i will make it to london for a vacation...

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

Mike Ruby: Here are two of the Bronx River Parkway's bridges over the Bronx River

in response to The Bridges of New York City

elaine: ooh, an upside down cross sign, is that for devil children?

in response to Scaffolding

elaine: i was in new jersey once. it struck me as being full of rusted metal train stuff, very exciting to the eye for me, but i had not been liberated into the way of the digital camera yet, so took no pictures. however, i have friends to stay with there,...

in response to Newark Bridge

elaine: scads of that kind of bling in the pawn shops and the like round here, all the more reason for your visiting - you gotta shop for your cat!

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

Peter: methinks soverign rings might be a tad hard to come by in brooklyn, heh.

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

elaine: i bet you will! (and i'd like to see it)

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

elaine: i think their scariness is a bit like arachnophobia, scuttle-y fast creatures that could get all over you in a body full of holes anxiety kind of a way. maybe that's why i have trouble pulling?

in response to Plum Beach

elaine: well there is some real logic to it, if it does work, who else but your own viscera knows what is good or bad for it?

in response to Plum Beach

GGP: love these lyrical shots. love these ancient, prehistoric, vulnerable survivors.

in response to Plum Beach

KingHorse: Beautiful essay and photos. I'm still a little afraid of them, illogically, the way I'm afraid of zombies. I remember reading or hearing that their lineage is prehistoric in some way, maybe that they're one of the few remaining species that survived and look exactly the way they did in...

in response to Plum Beach

Peter: ...i suppose next ill have to get her some fresh adidas kicks and a soverign ring, eh?

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

Peter: new perspectives can often be good things!

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

jeeff: haha good call.

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

caracarn: woot - crab pr0n!

in response to Plum Beach

elaine: it's one of those things you have to suspend some disbelief for, but if it works could really be pretty handy. the idea is that they have a way of testing your own body for what supplements it needs, and what stuff it doesn't need, even to the extent of...

in response to Plum Beach

Peter:

in response to Plum Beach

Peter: indeed. bottled water is pricey... whats a kineseologist?

in response to Plum Beach

elaine: that web link stuff is creepy. what makes me laugh like a cynic is that our darling governments are just happy as anything to pump sugar into children, which has no nutritional value, is addictive, and causes the cavities in the teeth in the first place

in response to Plum Beach

elaine: well, doubtless you are drinking other men's piss if you ever drink tapwater in anywhere like london where the water is endlessly recycled, lots of men's women's and fishes pisses. lucky i have a strong stomach for these things. we have fluoride nad the other thing, chlorine. i think the...

in response to Plum Beach

elaine: well, you know, i didn't know they even were called that, but it is uncanny, isn't it?

in response to pensive technology

Peter: a kitty face? maybe thats why they call em CATenary wires ;)

in response to pensive technology

Peter: also: are municipal water supplies in the uk treated with fluoride as they are here? read me: www.rotten.com/library/conspiracy/fluoridation

in response to pensive technology

Peter: random fact: penicillin isnt completely metabolized by the body when it is taken to ward off infection. actually, a large majority of it is excreted in the piss... well, in ww1, when such antibiotics were a commodity and in rare supply and the situation was grimly life-or-death, many a medic was...

in response to pensive technology

elaine: that or it is feeling sick after too much fast food. it has a slight look of a kitty face to it

in response to pensive technology

Peter: HAHAHAHA! chavcat!

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

Peter: mmmm, i am a lover of catenary wires and the pantographs that run along them! the catenary face has such pursed lips... maybe its scared of the oncoming trains?

in response to pensive technology

elaine: aaaawww she cute! - and i see she is a chav too!

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

elaine: i like to think of nature as cthonic ranther than idyllic, and in that sense london is a very 'natural' place, everything gets used spat out, cannibalised, recovered as something else, including people (not in the soylent green sense, though we are, of course, drinking each other's filtered piss, salut!)

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

Peter: you dont have to tell whether or not you can hear it, but i would really be curious to know what it might say could it speak. any thoughts?

in response to you like my sweater, dont you?

elaine: they look like bugs to me. even spider crabs look wrong to me, i lead a sheltered life. yay peter, cancarians unite and froth at the mouth. bet you have scruffy table manners too...

in response to Plum Beach

Peter: i think thats an urban legend... plus, the building has so many terraces and setbacks that it would be virtually impossible to pitch a penny off in such a way that it would actually reach the ground, as opposed to say landing on one of the set-backs or layered roofs...

in response to Empire State Building Spire:

Peter: cool. also: your timing on the shutter with this one is absolutely perfect. the composition is aligned in such a way that there was only one exact millisecond to capture it, and you nailed it just so.

in response to montreal parkour preview

Peter: good call, ea!

in response to elusive graffiti truck #2

elik: ive heard that dallas knows whats up, kids.

in response to Dallas Graffiti Like What!

Peter: thats a very valid point... i bet i could get some fresh shots of those dudes chillin with their rides. not very candid, but i bet the photos would be super interesting... maybe ill try it when i pass by there again next. theyre always there. only the vehicles change.

in response to Bajan Night Ryder Auto Club

Peter: woah... like really... woah! thats some cool shit. you cant imagine how psyched i am that you went to iceland, bleeagh, and are posting photos of it on this site. its so random and cool. wonderful shots. and the midnight sun. trippy!!

in response to Lugubrious

Peter: kitty kat shit up in dis piece!! this is stella, she lives in my house. she is happy because she got a much-needed bath last night, and now smells like lavendar and chamomile!

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

kc: happy birthday soon, cancerians! Although I think actually I think the horseshoes are in the spider family, but I could be wrong.

in response to Plum Beach

Peter: this thread is becoming very interesting...

in response to Plum Beach

Peter: i am a cancer, too! water signs unite! heh.

in response to Plum Beach

Peter: cool flick... i love how the orange paint has faded and is tinged with rust. its lovely in its own way. a microcosm effected by teh elements... while also serving as a crane...

in response to Patriot ic crane

Peter: yep, but they were on the other side... and a few were occupied. i dont hesitate to make photos of things i think are interesting, but i try to avoid overstepping the bounds of social tact (or at least overstepping them too far, heh), photographing as it were in an...

in response to Tampa Airport Bathroom

elaine: and a lot of other things besides. i googled fuzzy tank just now and was offered fluffy tank tops for girls, and fluffy covers for paintball tanks

in response to Patriot ic crane

elaine: pthpthpthpthpthpthpthpthpthpth, to you. i am, after all a cancerian and it is my birthday soon. i will lay eggs in the sand, and being a uk national i will wave my big crabby claws in the air and froth at the mouth too if i like

in response to Plum Beach

fuzzytank: "If, on the otherhand, we just continue to do our best in spite of weakness and hard work, we often find that, with all our delaying and tacking about, we achieve more than others with their sailing and rowing-and-it gives us a true feeling of our worth if we keep...

in response to Plum Beach

Jamie: What a thought. i feel faintly ill

in response to Plum Beach

elaine: mmm, apparently. i am honoured that the bloods have taken time out of their busy schedule to criticise me. although arguably i am a crip, what with my back and so on, i don't think it makes me a 'crip'. the canadians are getting very big now, nearly as big...

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

jeeff: well, the bloods have spoken. we need less of this kitty kat shit, bitch.

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

elaine: bring on the presents

in response to cat shop and baby canadians

elaine: i've never seen crabs like these. i could do with an affair right now, illicit or otherwise, perhaps i will go there and lay my eggs in the sand

in response to Humboldt Park

Lili: Absolutely far out - beautiful. The raised elbows ring that feel of "light", of "ghost".

in response to Lugubrious

BZZZP: i've found that if you go "oh man that's a hot car, is it yours, can i take a picture of you with it," you usually don't get your ass kicked. on a related note, overheard: "yo man, peep that escalade, that shit is mad... beautiful" ... with just the right...
