Chicagoans gather at Daley Plaza to participate in the nationwide “Day of Vigil” for Troy Davis who is on death row in Atlanta and was scheduled to be executed at 7 p.m. ET on September 21, 2011. A last attempt by his lawyers to suspend the execution was denied by the Supreme Court this evening.
This was one of the drafts for my Final piece for my AS Photography Exam. I'll upload the Finished Product in future, but I also like this Photo as whilst practically identical to my Exam piece its also darker with more shadows, this photograph Also has the McDonalds bag over the head of the Manikin which the final piece does not. The Photograph is meant to represent my Opinion and belief of Corporations and the religious worship of the "3 piece suit" Culture, this is represented by the noose instead of a tie around the Manikins neck instead of a tie, the hanging macro prints of burning McDonalds boxes and the collections of items representing Corporations and their Control to the right of the Manikin. The Background was whited out to ensure the viewer would concentrate more on the message of the image and with everything brought together this is defiantly one of my favourite pieces I've ever created.
Really rough execution of an idea I had. Not sure if I'm going to use those chairs or if I might find a couch. The poster would cover the right side of the shelter too just didn't get to do that
Tens of thousands died at Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp. Some died from disease, starvation, and exposure, but many were slaughtered by the Nazis between the late 1930s and 1945.
The execution trench seen here was where prisoners were led to then be shot or exterminated in the "ovens" en masse.

The Rieme-Oostakker Place of Execution is the place in the Ghent district of Oostakker where 66 resistance fighters were executed by the Naxi occupation force between February 8, 1943 and August 24, 1944.
This memory is also kept alive the 20 resistance fighters who were killed on the execution site at Rieme . That site was destroyed in 1998 during the construction of the Kluizendok of Ghent Port.
The executions were carried out in secret and the victims were buried anonymously. Some of the resistance fighters killed in Rieme was found in a mass grave in Hechtel.
Moreover, there were German soldiers and Belgian criminals also shot. Because of these circumstances, it is still unclear how many people were killed. After the Liberation the mass grave was uncovered in Oostakker. The victims were identified and buried in their hometowns.
The crosses on the ground thus have a symbolic meaning. Nevertheless, the execution place is a cemetery since in 1952 the remains of 15 decapitated West Flemish political prisoners were moved here from their graves in Munich.
On the grounds is a railway carriage which carried hundreds of Belgians to concentration camps in Germany and Poland. In 1966 the execution place gained the status of a protected landscape.

One of my favorite secret spots in Orange County. This abandoned Arizona Iced Tea factory is an amazing sight... it's massive and the whole place looks like a movie set... perfectly demolished. We found record books on the floor that date to the 1980's... there are some rooms in this place that are terrifying. Kind of a city-blair-witch feel. My buddy and I just filmed a scene for our new short film in this place... the film is called FOLLOWING WINTER..... more on that soon.
Registan (a sandy place): this public square was the centre of Samarkand and the site of a large market. It came to be used as the place where royal proclamations were made, public executions held, and trade & commerce conducted. In the 15th and 17th centuries, madrassas were built on three sides of the square. This design, madrasas facing each other across a square or street, is called a kosh, a "double, pair", as the building of madrasas are opposite each other on the sides of the street or square.
