I can’t say any­thing. His death has not silenced his voice.

Walking the neighborhood

Now that I have my nifty Insta­gram app I’ve always got a 2 1/4 cam­era with me. I’ve always loved to shoot square. I’ve begun tak­ing shots each time I walk the neigh­bor­hood. It’s eas­ier to do this now that I am a full time pedes­trian — no more car.

This is a Lomo-esque shot just a cou­ple blocks from home. I have taken many pho­tos of it. I like to explore the same places from a dif­fer­ent point of view. This is an amaz­ing build­ing. It has been empty now for at least a cou­ple years. I won­der when some­one from Brook­lyn will buy it and turn it into con­dos. So much Philadel­phia prop­erty has been bought up by Brook­lyn developers.

via cycle - roof full of bikes

Happy to have my dig­i­tal Lomo in my iPhone. This is a shot that I snapped after hav­ing to dig through my bike bag. I just can’t imag­ine the num­ber of bicy­cles are on the roof of that van. Who put them up there and how? Where did they come from. Just crazy.

Was watch­ing some Park­our videos and came upon this appar­ently famous com­mer­cial he did for the BBC.

from Wikipedia
Park­our (some­times abbre­vi­ated to PK) is a util­i­tar­ian dis­ci­pline based upon the direct, suc­cess­ful, swift tra­vers­ing of one’s sur­round­ing envi­ron­ment via the prac­ti­cal appli­ca­tion of tech­niques, based around the con­cept of self-preservation. It is a non-competitive, phys­i­cal dis­ci­pline of French ori­gin in which par­tic­i­pants run along a route, attempt­ing to nego­ti­ate obsta­cles in the most effi­cient way pos­si­ble, using only their bodies.

Park­our is beautiful.
