While I was working on my research project for my Master's Degree today, I scanned a few negatives from my years with 4-H Photography in Metchosin, way back in the early 90s. They aren't good pictures in any way, but I think they're interesting. I can't identify where I took some of them, but that's no matter; nobody ever suggested that I was a prodigy at anything. This is, nonetheless, what I thought was interesting and picture-worthy when I was 10 years old.

Here are some of the photos I took with it.
And a couple from a previous camerahack back in 2012.
With a title like that, I have to ask: Where's the other lover?I have faint memories of the Tsawassen Ferry Terminal looking like this.There's a wonderful set of photographs of "Abandoned Italian discoteques" over at Slate. I love this stuff. I'd love to visit these places and take my own photos, or do a small gig, or something fun and creative. Unfortunately, these wonderful buildings serve a more "real" purpose today:
I'd love to have some "underground parties" in a space like this... ... or this... The way these ruins can just be abandoned kind-of reminds me of Egypt, where we saw thousands of buildings abandoned or unfinished. They could abandon buildings because the climate was so dry that they wouldn't rot. In BC we can't get away with that; abandoned buildings rot quickly and usually get torn down. Perhaps that's why I like these "modern ruins" so much; we simply can't have them here, so they're particularly exotic to me.
I'm feeling pretty good today. |
