Apologies for my laziness lately - I've got a lot of photostreams to catch up on. Have barely even opened photoshop or pressed a shutter for a couple of weeks now, I think going back to work after xmas was a bit of a culture shock, hopefully I'll be back on track soon.
In the spirit of getting back into things here's this morning's random photoshopping... Just 3 images overlayed at various blend modes with a couple of layers of texture and noise. No particular reason, just looked appealing to me...
Random Ten (selected at random):
1. Beyond The Horizon - Bob Dylan
2. When The President Talks to God - Bright Eyes
3. New Slang - The Shins
4. The Good That Won't Come Out - Rilo Kiley
5. Cheated Hearts - The Yeah Yeah Yeahs
6. I Want You to Want Me - Cheap Trick

8. She Doesn't Get It - The Format
9. You Don't Know What Love Is - The White Stripes
10. Cellophane Boy - No Doubt
For the first organized Random Walks NYC, I decided to use a pocketful of slips marked: left, right and forward, instead of flipping a coin. No backward slips were included, because that would just have been too frustrating. As it is we ended up walking down the same stretch of First Avenue twice. But the gods of random were kind to us, bringing to us some really cool sculptures in community gardens, and some interesting people along the way.
Apparently random scaffolding in Sheffield's Haymarket...
...but every piece serves a purpose to support the frontage of the building while the interior, etc., has been demolished.
I can only assume that this building is listed hence the retention of the front.
Always seems odd to me how the only bit worth preserving is the front when the history of the building included the interior as well.
Ours not to wonder why but to just appease the developers.
I suppose if you didn't do this redevelopment probably wouldn't happen and the building would be left to decay and eventauly be demolished in its entirety.
