John FitzGerald's photos

Barnett Newmans's vertical lines (aka zips, but I didn't want to say "Barnett Newman's zips") have been haunting me lately, so I have started an album for photos exploring (ahem) the function of the zip. Or something. Below is an earlier pic on the same theme. ANother album with more tributes to painters to painters and photographers: www.ipernity.com/doc/fitzgerald/album/1294982?with=45547580

..so I end up with a big hole in the centre of the picture but what can you do eh red cars don't grow on trees.

I recommend the big version (type Z or click the pic). I may be wrong, of course, but you won't know till you try. Cracked Canoe is a light lager brewed by Moosehead Brewery of Saint John, New Brunswick. Moosehad's website does not explain how you crack a canoe. The only reason I can see for adding the Toronto Maple Leaf stickers is that someone decided they weren't providing enough Canadian symbolism.

I like the big version; you be the judge. Type Z or click the pic.

Since moving from urbia to suburbia, I've started taking New Topographics-style photos -- in long views, too. Since this is a long view I think it looks better big, but you be the judge (type Z or click the pic). For Sight and Sound I am providing a link to the Supremes performing an arrangement of this photo's title song, "I Hear a Symphony", featuring a symphony orchestra, an echo chamber, and an introduction by Paul Anka. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpL1TTxffO0

I prefer the big version myself (type Z or click the pic). Your taste may differ.

I didn't put "happy" in the title because of the unhappiness in the picture, but I do wish everyone a happy Fence Friday and a good weekend.
