The King


Ahh...The King. What a great memorial to one of the greatest Rock n Roll musicians/ cultural American icons ever! The flowers whoever arranged them works perfectly. It almost feels like the photograph could have been a headstone and it would have been really fitting. I love the checkerboard tiles as well, it really gives you a sense of movement and excitement just like when Elvis was performing on stage. In sure Elvis would have loved to perform on the checkerboard stage, he probably did at one time or another.

American Indian



I was out photographing this past Tues in the late morning. When I stumbed upon this image as I was walking in a part of Chicago called Edgebrook. Right away the saw the relationship with the American Indian and the American flag and the words "In the memory of 911" and the Statue of Liberty graphic. It is one those images that is almost automatic when I see it because is was so clear to me on why it an important image. I'm not going to go into the whole meaning etc.....I think everyone can draw there own conclusions.

Alien Car


A very odd image, it really seems like the car is embedded in the vines. I just feel aliens are invading, looking at the shapes in the the pavement look like something is going to land. Also the highlighted area in the upper lefthand corner, just looks like some is going to sweep right in and take over the car.
