Photo Essay - Haight / Ashbury

This a photo of the popular "Wasteland" Clothing store.
I liked how the cross walked, almost led right into the doors.



I saw this van, and unquestionably had to take a picture of it.
I think it pretty much sums up the Haight, especially right
in from of the Ameoba Music Store.


This Wall, just makes, me think of these people with
a very long story.


I'm not really sure what to think of this, but i think thats
what the artist was going for.


The Boom Box is what especially attracted me to this picture.
And its almost as if the blue and yellow lines are sound waves
coming out of it.


haha.


I've always thought that it looks like your leading into the desert,
when you walk out side of this store.


The artist that drew this gave great emotion and detail.
And i alsoliked how you can still the street lights on top of the
mural,showing hoiw its just on the side of the street, not on
a canvas, or in somegallerey.

Photojournalism

David Seyemour taken in France in 1937.


This Photo was Taken By Wayne Miller on the Southside of Chicago in 1947




Taken By Christensen Anderson InAfghanistan in 2004.




Taken By Brunbo Barbey On Fishermans Village in Senegal

Taken By Hirijo Kubuto in North Korea in 1982 for Kim II Sung's Birthday


Line Shape Form














This Was the Rear Trunk lid of an Aston Martin
V8 Vantage, that was Wrapped in Dry Carbon Fiber.
















This Was on the Trunk of a BMW e36 M3, It really
Stood out to me because of the red heart in a field
of black and White.

















Although, you might not realize it at first, this picture is
actually of a Door panel to a BMW M3, taken in broad
daylight. Its imperfect lines, and the fact that what
it actually is to the uninfored eye is what attracts me to
this photo.

















This was originally just a White Lexus IS 350. but
a sharpie artist used it as a canvas to write on,
and it was then clear coated over. I like this photo
alot because you can see how naturally the artist
flowed around the taillight and license plate.
