I found this pile of food, which seemed to be recently set out, behind the old Mikado (now Naked Fish) and in the pile of what used to be DV8. It was so odd to me because it was like someone knew someone was going to come and pick it up soon. It was so strategically placed out I wondered what type of arrangement the two people behind the food had. It wasn't enought food to last longer than like 2 days.
The next pic is of the back of a bar that I believe is out of business now (Mynt Lounge)? This is used as a patio, which I'm sure is mesmerizing at night. Although the whole wall is painted black, notice how it almost accentuates all the lines, textures, and materials. Also notice that the lights are still on in the string of Christmas lights, and it is the middle of the day.
Last pic is sparklers for the mood of the 4th of July. This would be my favorite picture of seeing things in a way you may not normally view things, and top picture for the seeing eye activity. Instead of capturing the excitement of someone's facial expressions from holding the sparklers, the focus is on the sparkler. Although I did not take it, I feel when I'm looking at it as if I can imagine being in that moment. What makes photography powerful for me is this exact emotional connection. (the pic was taken by my little sister Christine Olson, Christine Olson photography)
