Waiting for dad…

Measures of Anonymity #21 Denver, Colorado 2012

A little Sunday early morning activity.]]>

Measures of Anonymity #20 Denver, Colorado 2012

I thought I’d throw this odd-ball (in the sense that it’s in color) image into the mix. Not so much anonymity here, either architecturally or otherwise. I don’t know who these people are, so in that sense they are anonymous but I do know or could guess some of their story; they are getting engaged or married or otherwise want to document their relationship. How do I know this? Out of the photo to the left in the middle of the street (it was Sunday morning so there was essentially no traffic) is a photographer instructing them where to stand, how to pose etc. for the photos she was taking.]]>

Measures of Anonymity #19 Denver, Colorado 2012

Look close and you can see a lone figure walking by on the other end of the tunnel.]]>

Measures of Anonymity #18 Denver, Colorado 2012

A suggestion of life behind the grid. I think this image is interesting in that there is really no good indication of what you are looking at or the scale of the grid, except for the car which literally puts it all in perspective.

Measures of Anonymity #17 Denver, Colorado 2012

The older the building the more signs of uniqueness and individuality appear, reducing the anonymity (for better or worse). This shot did make me wonder what the fire marshall thinks about a big swamp cooler blocking a fire escape.]]>

Measures of Anonymity #16 Denver, Colorado 2012

I really like the arrangement of shapes and shadows in this one, in some ways sort of a Mondrianesque collection of lines and shapes–but with enough vents, lights, etc. to be able to recognize it as a real rather than abstract object.]]>

Measures of Anonymity #15 Denver, Colorado 2012

Another facade, this one not so pleasing as yesterday’s but one I find graphically interesting nonetheless. And the staining on the stone brings some feeling of life or movement, however minimal or slow, to the composition.]]>

Measures of Anonymity #14 Denver, Colorado 2012

Back to the Denver series for a bit. Even though this building shields it’s occupants in perhaps lonely anonymity, the design pattern on the side were appealing to me. It reminded me of photos of the long, empty roads in the American West. (Which are of course also lonesome.)]]>

Act of Valor #15 Anaconda, Montana 2012

My visit to the Anaconda Bar capping my brief tour of the town, I headed back on the road toward home.]]>
