I mentioned that my friend Jeff S had known the painting on the cover of Goodbye to All That.
Jeff is an architectural photographer (correct term?). That is, he takes fab photos of buildings. And other things!
I met him when he worked with bink at the U of I Art & Architecture Library on the Chicago Circle campus--a concrete campus that I used to hate but now think looks like a fabulous Star Trek set... even if you do (did) get dripped on walking under the elevated walkways.
You can see Jeff's photos on his Flickr, Diorama Sky:
I grabbed these two photos that were sitting next to one another, though knowing Jeff, I doubt it was serendipity--I bet he thought carefully about how they would look juxtaposed.
(Right, Jeff?)

Beautiful pics, beautifully juxtaposed!
ReplyDeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the VERY GENEROUS shout out, Francesca!
And thanks, Steve, for the very nice comment!
Hope to get a few more pics up on Flickr later this week.
PS: And, yes, I do think (perhaps a bit too much) about the juxtapositions. After all, I want them to play well - and productively - together! ;)
Perfect juxtapositions! Great photos!
