randy fox is an american photographer, whose work frequently concentrates on the decaying beauty and loneliness of the fraying american dream. based in western pennsylvania, fox’s work celebrates the hope and ingenuity that once existed in the rust belt area of the united states.
his photographs are equal parts sad and groovy, especially the DIY / retro signage. how cool would it be if we could see before & after versions… i’m picturing scenes of back to the future in my head right now.
had a bit of a day yesterday, so some cute & amusing pictures are in order.

in each city ami asks 50 of its inhabitants to hand-draw a map to a place of their choosing, a place that is significant or important to them personally, for any reason.
i LOVE now & thens! when i first saw Jason Powell’s “looking into the past” flickr set, i thought to myself, ” if i had a blog, that would go on it “. well, i do now (serious). there’s also a group pool with some pretty groovy submissions from other flickr members.
