I see the moon...

And the moon sees me... We all know the rest, no need to continue the ditty. This is what I was privy to this morning when I got up.

I just finished a 3,000 word essay on the subject of my intuition with regard to photography and archiving or collecting. For those who enjoy Jacques Derrida, Walter Benjamin and similar type thinkers, and don't mind getting lost in deep thought, I will post it for your reading pleasure. One interesting result of having written this paper is that I have been freed of Old Montreal. I know, sounds weird. Just read the paper (or simply the conclusion) to find out why.

Poésie montréalaise - le jardinier sans-abris

This is such serendipity. Thank you so much YMC for your perceptive eye, cet oeil qui voit tout ce qui est important.

Hole in a Rock

So yea, maybe not just a rock, but one that has become a sculpture... so I apologize in advance to the artist for having simply called it a "rock". Great view though, don't you think?

Four Towers

Taken last week, they are the inspiration for one of my now defunct blogs... perhaps this can inspire me to go on.

And they thought it was a cup holder!

Driving a manual Audi S4 is impossible with a pair of Louboutins! It's a question of clutch and driving quality...hence the left Loub holder on my right.

The Ultimate (Tasteful) Canadians Fan's Home

Walking yesterday evening, YMC and I came upon this house. Now, I am not one to display adherence to ANYTHING! I find it crass and tasteless. How these people here managed to combine their house and this fan frenzy is actually downright cool! Go habs go!

The Scooter Man

I just swung the camera around in a jiffy not to miss this one. Quirky. The story that came to mind was that he was in such a hurry this morning, he grabbed his kid's scooter to make it to work in time...

Nelson ponders...

YMC asked me to take this shot. It was a very good idea...problem is my lens was incredibly filthy. Time for spring cleaning.

Old and new

Modernity as the backdrop for the old, on a gray cloudy day.

Going up the hill

Spotted these cyclists while going home on Tuesday afternoon. They had "CCCP" on the side of their shorts...commi cyclists?
