pictures that induce happiness and somehow manage to distract from the realities of real life.

père lachaise
i had been to père lachaise cemetery once before on a previous trip to paris, but had literally run in and out in a frenzy of sightseeing just to look at jim morrison’s grave (one of those shameless things you just have to do, like visiting the eiffel tower.) this time round i had plenty of time to walk all through the huge grounds. i honestly think it is one of the most beautiful places in paris – mostly because of the tree lined avenues and the feeling of escaping the city as soon as you’re within its walls.
all photos by me, more at my flickr.
out of business
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.
phew
had a bit of a day yesterday, so some cute & amusing pictures are in order.
mad men birdies (check out joan!)
hello my name is dev
hello my name is dev has a cool photo collection, and i chuckled at his profile description on flickr, “i’m addicted to the internet… i don’t think i’ve logged off since 1998.” yup. that pretty much sums up my sentiments, too.
