Montreal -- making the new old!  Workmen re-cobbling Urban Street in the Old Port. This street was a regular paved road last year (they're actually doing a lot of repair/refurbishment work in the Old Port this year). I was busted taking this picture by one of the working guys. So much for candid shots... | | Saturday, July 4th, 2009 | 1:00 pm [en_viktor]

Mitchell's Wind on the Altiplano  We watched and counted (forty-one-one-thousand, forty-two -one-thousand) as the bright wool scarf cloud bank topped the mountain and descended in a frothy tsunami. The plain seemed flat like glass or pavement from my perch onthe rock ridge, and I remember that the prairie, any prairie, never wants or needs your falsehoods. The plains don't give a flying fuck if you're self-conscious or insecure or a sinner or a millionaire. To Mitchell's wind, you will never be anything than your barest bones covered in transparent flesh gossamer for all it protects you. You can cover up what you've been taught to be ashamed of, like a skinny dipper with cruel friends but no one is watching you here. | | Monday, June 29th, 2009 | 1:18 am [alouzon]
