Some walls are stone. Get over it.
A wall I walked past on my way to work one morning.
The equestrian statue of Confederate General Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson at Manassas National Battlefield Park.
On the negative sheet I wrote, "Kids' forced trip to Stonewall Peak." This area all burned a year later and is no longer forested.
it’s a complex morning and the house that i return to.
we collide.
me convex with all my feelings in a cumulative clutter,
and the house revolting; bulging seemingly inwards,
making everything cavernous, in spite of its monstrous size.
we are both stonewalls.
my clothes wet from rain opposes too, as i am trying to peel them off me.
i will not make it known i am back
until my silk rose brosch has stopped slouching.

"Some People are Gay. Get over it!"

A study in contrasts. I thought this old brick on top of my stone wall looked out of place (which it is) but also a bit interesting.

The View from the top of the Peak
I went up to Stonewall Peak last night to shoot star trails and Milky Way photography, but the clouds got in the way, so I decided to make the best of it and shoot some timelapse video while I was there.

The Gay Liberation Monument is a monument featuring the sculpture Gay Liberation by American artist George Segal; located in Christopher Park along Christopher Street in Manhattan; New York. Located at the northern end of the park; the art installation commemorates the Stonewall riots and features four figures (two standing men and two seated women) positioned in "natural; easy" poses. The bronze statues are covered in white lacquer; cast in 1980 from plaster moulds of human models. Two "World's Fair-style" benches and a plaque are also part of the monument.The monument was dedicated on June 23; 1992.The sculpture was originally commissioned in 1979 (10th anniversary of the Stonewall incident) by the Cleveland-based Mildred Andrews Fund. The commission specified that the work must be installed on public land and that it "had to be loving and caring; and show the affection that is the hallmark of gay people. . . . And it had to have equal representation of men and women." It was completed in 1980 and was the first piece of public art dedicated to LGBT rights. It was intended for installation in New York but proved too controversial for the city. It was instead installed in Orton Park in Madison; Wisconsin from 1986 to 1991. The Madison installation was funded by the New Harvest Foundation. It was finally moved to New York in 1992.A second casting of the work was intended for Los Angeles but was also refused by the city. In 1984 it was installed on Stanford University's Main Quad as a "long term loan". The sculpture was vandalized several times during the first ten years; but eventually became an accepted part of Stanford's public art.In August 2015; anonymous activists painted two of the figures' faces brown to protest the way the statues "white- and cis-wash a movement led by black and brown queer and trans people".

We ventured out this evening to Black Point in Narragansett RI. The group this time out was threshold, Skazama, Rizzolo, Rltm401 and Adrian. We returned to the place that was so beautiful over the summer to see it's beauty in the cold of the coming winter season. I want to get back here in the dead of winter, ice!
A very unusual composition for me as the majority is filled with the subject. This is what's left of a stone turret that mother nature is slowly reclaiming. It sits at the edge of the water and there are large pieces missing. The tide was still out to sea but was making it's way back toward us (maybe in a few hours).
You can see a group pool here of all our shots on Flickr from the night or a slick slideshow here. It may take a week or so for all the shots to be posted.
Lot of stuff going on in this stairwell. Only in San Francisco.

Since 1828, a small, unassuming building currently known as the Jackson Death Site has stood ten miles south of the city of Fredericksburg, Virginia. The building was once part of Fairfield, also known as the Chandler Plantation or Guinea Station. Other buildings that once stood within the vicinity of the Jackson Death Site included the farm home, outhouses, a smokehouse, and barns. Built not as a residence but as the farm's office, this building had no fixed purpose like most of the structures around it. Instead, the farm office was used for whatever the inhabitants needed at the time: that could mean simple storage or indoor workspace or file keeping. The farm complex was owned by John Thorton and later the Chandler family. After General Jackson's arm was amputated he was moved here for transport by train to Richmond. During that time he would develop pneumonia and become to ill to travel. He would die here turning this farm into a shrine to forever remember a great general and man.
