Photos taken with an Olympus D-460

I took these photos a few months ago but decided to post them yesterday as I was submitting another photo taken on the same day to LaLaLand for the “Urban Textures” theme. These photos are close-ups of a metal door but to me they have the most amazing accidental composition. I just find them really beautiful.

The photo I submitted to LaLaLand is very different. It’s a shot of a set of rusty keys on a letter “J” keychain. Kind of sad for some reason. (here’s a link to the photo)

August 27th 2001 — A one-off splash from the low resolution “archives”.

poor traits

May 1st 2001 — One of several false starts for low resolution. I don’t mind the look of this so I thought I would put it up to document that state of the site.

There is text that comes up when the phrase “turn the page tomorrow” is rolled-over which says, “a serial monologue / pages are tangents / lucid or ludic?.” This text is actually a great precursor to how I’m now using this site. Each page can stand on its own or form lines of thought throughout the history of the site. Most of what I post is in the form of a monologue. The siamese connection between lucid and ludic behaviour has driven me for quite a while.

I’ll be resurrecting some other previous material from the former states of low resolution but I’m being fairly picky about what might make it back up.
