The Weekend is Isogloss, #1: This Month's Art

CONCEPT

Whenever possible, all images posted here are original.

The pictures posted for Lunas are part of my documentation expeditions around Edgewater Beach. The background is an image of the Foster Street beach. When I arrived, the southern bank of the beach was quite busy, but to the north, it was almost empty except for the three people shown walking along the shore, one of whom was wearing a very long sari that was dragging in the sand. Against this, much closer to me, was a baby's stroller which had evidently been forgotten or abandoned. Recently, too. It couldn't have been out in the weather for more than a few hours. Finally, the foreground and background were cut apart by a long, thin strip of blue tarp. I don't know what the function of this was, either.

The "Blog Game... Cool In..." frame is a selection from a long line of graffiti covering the breakwall just north of this beach. I thought all it seemed appropriate in light of the game this month.

The three frames to the right are all taken from a motel at Sheridan and Catalpa. I originally used a photo of this motel for the background but, as you can tell, the structure is decoratively discordant and the whole thing just looked way too busy.
