Hey, veruca, sorry 'bout that typo.

GalleyWench: your pix are absolutely scrumptious. Where is that house? I definitely need to roadtrip w/ you, veruca & monkeybort - we'll grab up idle_hands, too, no?

yeimi: wow. Can you come with us?

monkeybort: are you intentionally blending last week's theme (fire) with this week's? or is it a happy accident?

Happy accident insofar as the fire aspect of it only dawned on me after I posted the three pix last week. Lucky I could use it this week. (Church=bridge to the afterlife for next week's?)

we'll have to save her for our illegitimate silver based love child
When she gets older, she's gonna handle the concessions at the underground photo parties...

Next FARK party...Western State Hospital asylum ruins? I'll bring the beer :)

veruca: Next FARK party...Western State Hospital asylum ruins? I'll bring the beer :)

i like it! put me down for the chips and salsa!

Logomancer: When she gets older, she's gonna handle the concessions at the underground photo parties...

since she's going to be conceived there, that is only fitting.

veruca I can't wait!
Logomancer The more the merrier, I've already told idle_hands that I'd like to take her tripping around out there too.

If anyone wants to see a 20 year old photo of the same place verucas photo was taken, I added one to my profile.

Ha ha ha, I should refresh or type faster. The party should be during a full moon!

Logomancer Thanks. That house and totem pole are in Saxman Alaska. It's a native village near where I live. I thought I had put "Saxman" in the title of my photo. D'oh.

that sounds like a really good time. a traveling underground photo party.

it would be a thing of beauty.

and GalleyWench - ditto on the scrumptiousness - those are fabulous.

Galleywench:
a 20 year old photo of the same place veruca's photo was taken:

When the Full Moon Traveling Underground Photo Party stops in Rhode Island, there's an abandoned WWI coastal gun battery complex that has at least 40 years of graffiti and partying embedded into the crumbling concrete. Looks like a kindred spot.

I have two entries this week:
First, the ruins of the Roman Forum, taken on a recent trip to Europe. Hard to believe this whole area, including the pillars in the forground, was lost under a big pile of dirt.

Second Entry:
A waterfall in the Smokies. I figured this works for the passage of time in that erosion over time created the beatiful fall, or the time over which the photo was taken, which was rather long.

Late to the party ..too early in the UK

I miss Colorado more with each one of these photo contests.

Late but I hope y'all like it anyway... I'm sure a few people will recognize this place.

Better late than never
