Night 9,938 – April 2, 2010

As opposed to the lesser love chapel. I guess the barred gate door says it all. I don't understand how love can be a greater love or a better love or a truer love, after all, love is love. The cynical me says this means greater love because its our love as opposed to their love, which of course is a lesser love because it's not ours. Spring Garden Street in West Philadelphia (this might be Powelton Village, I don't know for sure)

Night 9,939 – April 1, 2010

Happy April Fools Day
Another holga photograph of the house on North 42nd Street with all the lawn ornaments. The house is just north of Spring Garden.

Night 9,940 – March 31, 2010

I had a busy day today. A paper was due and I took a GRE test in the morning. After that I was scrambling to get my work done and get some jobs delivered. After picking up a large hoodie order from the screen printing shop I was rushing and did not see a stop light at a trolley crossing. I hit the trolley. Backed up SEPTA during the afternoon rush...probably on the news.

This is a house on North 42nd Street in West Philadelphia. There is a lot of stuff in the front yard.

Another mostly pure out of the camera holga photograph taken on Market Street in West Philadelphia. These types of urban murals, a positive message style of graffiti art, are all over West Philly. I know nothing about them but I find them interesting.

Night 9,944 – March 27, 2010

This is a holga toy camera photograph I took in February 2010 on Market Street around 64th Street in West Philadelphia. Ilford HP5 Plus film, I like this for the urban landscape and urban still life stuff. This is more of the urban still life - not cropped - right out of the camera as they say, only processed with Rodinal, scanned and adjusted with a high contrast red filter. Unfortunately, this is a pure as it gets.

Night 9,945 – March 26, 2010

an urban landscape on Oregon Ave. near Front Street in South Philadelphia. I sometimes wonder why certain locations are chosen for discarding unwanted possessions. These chairs must have been used at one time by someone, probably carefully placed in a sitting room. They have served their purpose so well they now have no purpose, useless stuff. But why here? This stuff has been here for a while. Does this place looks like it's OK to dump unwanted junk? I guess so. Sometimes I feel like this place.

Night 9,960– March 11, 2010

I wrote about Allen Iverson on March 3. I said he was on of my all time favorite Sixer and that I didn’t blame him for leaving the team this year. It turns out Iverson has more problems than his ill daughter. You can read in the Steven A. Smith article below that Iverson has always had a drinking and gambling problem. Now his wife is leaving him. These flaws are no surprise to most Philadelphia sports fans. In fact, for me, these flaws made Iverson a special player to which I could relate. Iverson wears his bad habits where everyone can see and he never hid who he was. Allen is a tragic sports hero and still one of my favorites. I hope thing work out for him.
