It may be work, it may be play, it may be near, it may be away. So here is the challenge - to shoot and post one photograph a day on this site. These photographs are a kind of diary of things I find interesting. I am also thinking that there will be days when I am unable to shoot, so on those infrequent occasions, I will post a photograph done on another day, but one that still feels important to me. - Ken Spencer

Nice Neighborhood
Several years ago, earth moving equipment went in here and started digging out an entire hill. I when it was done, it just sat there for another long period. Then one day they went in and started building the huge stone retaining wall. I couldn't imagine what was going to go in here. Imagine my surprise when they started building a house. How would you like to live in a house where if you looked out the window, you would see a retaining wall that covered up your view of the sky? Anyhow, now the first house is done, and they have started digging out another area near where I am standing, probably for a second house. But who would want to live here? We'll see... Oh, and if the wall starts to fall down in 20 years, who pays to fix that?
Look at the house in the very small picture size of an iPhone and you will make out a "sad face," because the people who live there don't get to see the sky.
ReplyDeleteSomething like :( but also with a "nose."
