Yes, I received your letter yesterday
(About the time the door knob broke)
When you asked how I was doing
Was that some kind of joke?
All these people that you mention
Yes, I know them, they're quite lame
I had to rearrange their faces
And give them all another name
Right now I can't read too good
Don't send me no more letters no
Not unless you mail them
From Desolation Row
DESOLATE
1: devoid of inhabitants and visitors : deserted
Something so desolete shouldn´t be allowed to be so infinitetely vast and beautiful.

Found a hidden away spot when I took a walk by myself on some out of commission train tracks. A love seat and this chair were resting there. I definitely want to use this spot soon for model shots.

A shot from the desolate downtown phoenix area. The city at night becomes very calm after the sun falls in Phoenix. You are often left with a very eerie sensation exploring the city in the late nigiht hours. Maybe even on the edge of post apocalyptic. You can walk around for at least 20-30 minutes at times and never see a single car or person.

Took this photo in Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Novo Theatre (formerly Maulana Vasani Novo Theatre) before the show started. Visited after a long time :)
Took with the built in Android panorama mode, thus the poor quality :(

Noon 612 pinhole . 2 minute exposure. This was shot on ektacolor 100 but scanned as mono as flare screwed up the colours. This was taken in a local valley called desolation valley . So named because it used to be a wooded valley but the trees were destroyed in a great storm in 1836.
...and frustrated! Now that I've finally caught up with work stuff, I couldn't edit anything I liked to save my life =P Blech. So, here you get deserted house + log + texture in BW.
Good night, flickr.
The fate of an abandoned house is to deteriorate from neglect and fall into ruin, like this sad looking former-residence in Detroit.
Bernard Picart (1673-1733)

This plate shows the desolation of Peruvians during an eclipse of the Moon. Also dogs are depicted.
When I was a young boy
Back in Orangefield
I used to gaze out
My classroom window and dream
And then go home and listen to Ray sing
"I believe to my soul" after school,
Oh that love that was within me
You know it carried me through
Well it lifted me up and it filled me
Meditation contemplation too
[Chorus:]
Oh we've got to go back
Got to go back
Got to go back
Got to go back
For the healing go on with the dreaming (Van Morrison: Got to go back)
Reaching Refuge de Larry I had a flashback to the sensation I felt decades ago reading "Desolation Angels" from Jack Kerouac, with the soundscape of Van Morrison's "Got to go back"
Sometimes crossing paths lead to a contemplative moment on the core of life.
Dhanushkodi or Danushkodi is a town/village at the southern tip of Rameswaram island, on the eastern coast of the Tamil Nadu state of India. It is the only land border between India and Sri Lanka which is one of the smallest in the world-just 50 yards in length on a shoal in Palk Strait. Before the 1964 cyclone, Dhanushkodi was a flourishing tourist and pilgrimage town. All together over 1800 people died in the cyclonic storm. All dwelling houses and other structures in the town were marooned in the storm . The high tidal waves moved deep onto this island and ruined the entire town. Naval vessels sent to the relief and rescue of marooned people reported to have spotted several bloated bodies around the eastern end of Dhanushkodi. Eyewitness accounts recollected of how the surging waters stopped short of the main temple at Rameshwaram where many people had taken refuge from the fury of the storm. Following this disaster, the Government of Madras declared Dhanushkodi as Ghost town and unfit for living. Only few fisherfolks now live there.

With our family we went to the amusement park 'Juliana Toren' in Apeldoorn, The Netherlands. At the end of the day, even the covered terraces were empty. No wonder, it was rainy since 14:00 hours and very cold. Here we drunk warm chocolate milk before returning home.
