Day 139

Batwings

I tend to give my pictures harsh contrasts. I really like my blacks to be black, and my highlights to glow. I was in the mood to push that to an extreme with this picture. Then I got angry at all the noise in it (from having shot it at ISO 1600), so I added even more noise. I made my problem go away by making the problem purposeful. If you try to mess up my picture, I'll obliterate you.

What is going on with my life? I'm a lowlife waiter asshole with no marketable, in-demand skills. My resale value doesn't even cover the cost of shipping. It's even less than my broken Nikkor 18-55mm VR.

I don't hang out with my friends anymore. I just tell them remotely how my life is going via my blog. It's a one way conversation. How the fuck are you, anyway? My brother won't talk to me. My sister lives in the boondocks. My girlfriend works when I don't, and is off when I'm not.

I'm just tired. But that doesn't make any of that less true, though.

Mike,
The best thing to do is to take out your frustrations on other people's property.

Vandalizing is the only true and great away to live.

Pick a local church or a nice car you have seen in the area...and smash it.

Cheers.
