Maybe not in a bad way? It seems like even when I'm taking pictures of people, I'm really looking at the far background.
In other news, I may have another kidney infection. Since the last one landed me in a hospital in Egypt for three days, I'm being pretty cautious about this one, going to the doc this afternoon, pushing fluids (including that perennial favorite, cranberry juice).

So, we went to momentum last night, and there were a couple interesting things... an odd performance piece where this girl was grating beets. WTF do you grate beets for in the real world anyway? And seriously, WTF was that supposed to mean? I'm all for performance art. But man, I don't know about that one.
I could go down the list of weird shit I didn't get for a while, but shooting down art that falls flat in Oklahoma is far too easy (and the performance piece above was actually better than a lot of what was there). Overall, this year's Momentum just lacked a lot of the charm and whimsy that has marked it in the past. Like the guy from last year who was putting up signs on all the sold pieces that said something like "This is no longer Art," or the Womb Room from the year before (or was that 2009?). Even the really good pieces that were chosen seemed to be playing it safe on the part of the curators.
I've been doing a lot of streets and clouds lately. Sometimes I'm just looking for that perfect moment when the light in the sky is balanced by the streetlights, and other times, I just want to take a picture of something to see how it looks.

It's too dark outside to do this with the phone, so I pulled out the big iron, and shot the moon. As it turned out though, the clouds were more interesting.

The nightmare was my twitter got hacked. This is how good my life is right now, that's the worst my subconscious could come up with. Of course, I'm sure the world is going to come up with something much worse, now that I've said that.
I haven't blogged for a while, but I'm not giving up. I thought about rebooting and redesigning and using another domain that already points here:
photounrelated.com. That may still happen. Of course, since all my traffic comes from twitter and facebook anyway, it doesn't matter, so long as the old links and the new ones still work.
