Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Colour re-edit of a previously published black and white shot captured in July 2014. Enjoy!
Influenced by Andreas Gursky's works showing humanity's addiction to mass consumption.
Celebrating consumerism in creamy analog color.
What works towards the success of this photo is that all the individuals in the middle ground are coincidentally wearing slate colored shirts... and that delicious orange color way way in the back

As I mentioned in my previous post, my recent self prescribed venture is to break away from my usual modus operandi and learn a new sight through the vision of Gursky.
He has a talent for observing humanity in an artistic yet objective manner.
One of his works "99 cent" is particularly inspiring by it's abstractness and way of showcasing the world of consumerism.

What I’m trying to relay through my image is our inability to see the forest for the trees when we are in a store surrounded by products. Whether that be a grocery store, a clothing shop, an auto dealership we are inundated and thus overwhelmed to a point where we are servants to the environment.
We are no longer in charge of ourselves and are influenced by all that intentionally surrounds us.
Thank you for your visit, comment or fave. All are much appreciated.

The classic self unloader steamer Consumers Power steams up the St. Marys River at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan as viewed from Sugar Island. Her days with the American Steamship Company are numbered as she would later be sold to the Erie Sand and Steamship Company, seen here the morning of August 26, 1979.

Listen, enjoy and think: Marvin Gaye - Mercy, Mercy, Me.
I always wanted to visit that place. I remember several years in the past, this commercial center was full of life, today this is empty and beautiful. Some people lived here, left and let their marks. Strangely the words I red were full of love, as if the knew that nobody would read them, a silent and peaceful love.

These two shots go together, the Fire shot is from the summer of 2007. I spotted the fire when I was on the mountain and it was burning so bright it wasn't hard to locate in Lower Hamilton. It was located on the other side of the tracks from consumers' glass and the fire department had set the perimeter a way back because they were trying to cool the tankers that were right next to the fire, scared that they might blow up.
The Second shot is one I took in the Winter of 2008 with a few of my friends from when some asshats took it upon themselves to lock us into the complex and then watch us struggle from behind the fence. They took off right after we got free when the owner showed up and was wondering what we were doing in the back who then let us out. He said he left the gate open with the lock open since he was planning to come back, and didn't understand how we ended up the back, LOL.
The funny thing is I only ever had these problems when exploring without my 'usual' exploring partner. A few, other local explores were kinda tainted the same way. Funny coincidence that is, kiddos.

To the left is the former site of Ford Assembly Plant at 10th and Winchester, which began construction in 1909 and finished two years later in 1911. This was the first Ford plant built outside of Detroit.
Ford later opened up a new plant within the Kansas City area at Claycomo, MO, which opened its doors in 1951 for military production. Eventually, consumer vehicles were then produced at the newer Claycomo plant beginning in January of 1957, and by the end of December of 1956, production ceased at the original Winchester plant.
The twin smokestacks with "Ford" in-laid on the bricks still remain standing here, serving as a reminder of a bit of Kansas City history. 12/21/24.
