Kyoko has a blog: The Lens Project
Damon Winter, a staff photographer for the New York Times, has been working on a photo column called The Lens Project which allows the photographers to make their own commentary through images. He created a series called Neighbors which utilizes double exposures created with a large format…
This is completely awesome. Hearing about his process (the link leads to a narrated slide show) is really, really interesting, and probably something I’m going to try with my Holga, since I can do pretty much infinite exposures in a single frame and I tend to do that derpily at best.

To say that force may sometimes be necessary is not a call to cynicism — it is a recognition of history; the imperfections of man and the limits of reason.
Stop the presses! Noelle is drawing an evironment!!
I like where this is going. And yes. I have incorporated Feral Sweater Boys into my school assignments.
This is just the flats, by the way, it’s a long way from finished.
In honor of Andrew Bird. It has been 7 years since I first picked up Weather Systems, and since I have not stopped loving his work.

Mayor runs over illegally parked car in tank
Tuesday, August 2nd, 2011
This is the incredible moment a frustrated mayor drives an armoured vehicle over a MERCEDES – for parking in a cycle lane.
Arturas Zuokas, 43, took the drastic action after becoming infuriated with motorists parking their luxury cars illegally around the Lithuanian capital of Vilnius.
The flamboyant politician decided to take the novel approach of fighting illegally parked cars by driving over them in a Russian tank.
He said: ”I wanted to send a clear message that people with big and expensive cars can’t park wherever they feel like and ignore the rights of pedestrians and bike riders.
”It shows a lack of respect and won’t be tolerated. Of course, you have to have a sense of humour in my line of work and I thought this would be a way of drawing attention to the fact that the city intends to be proactive in its fight against illegal parking.”
The shocked owner of the Mercedes was photographed exiting a shop to find his German saloon destroyed by the smartly dressed civic leader.
The car was later crushed.
THIS MAN IS THE MAYOR OF MY HEART
Most Badass American Presidents
Patriotic follow up to my other list of badasses. A-Jacks was a ridiculous lunatic.

I ask to be or not to be.
That is the question I ask of me.
This sullied life, it makes me shudder.
My uncle’s boffing dear sweet mother.
Would I, could I take me life?
Could I, should I end this strife?
Should I jump out of a plane?
Or throw myself before a train?
Should I from a cliff just leap?
Could I put myself to sleep?
Shoot myself or take some poison?
Maybe try self-immolation?
To shudder off this mortal coil,
I could stab myself with a fencing foil.
Slash my wrists while in the bath?
Would it end my angst and wrath?
To sleep, to dream, now there’s the rub.
I could drop a toaster in my tub.
Would all be glad if I were dead?
Could I perhaps kill them instead?
This line of thought takes consideration -
For I’m the king of procrastination.Heeeeeeeeee!
OMG
Here are all the Avengers posters we created for, and handed out at, San Diego Comic-Con 2011. The concept art was created by Marvel Studios’ Visual Development Co-Supervisors Ryan Meinerding and Charlie Wen, as well as Andy Park. Not sure which is my favorite, they’re all so rad.
