If I were granted one wish for the HOLIDAYS, that would be not to be so "stupid".
Traveling through the dark alleys and "mean" streets of Chicago, I find comfort in taking pictures with my digital camera. In my collection I have hundreds of pictures. My wish is to share them with others on the internet. Being "stupid" I keep getting "rejection" messages when trying to post them. Something to the effect that the pictures with my camera (SONY) are not compatible with the "BLOGSTREAM" system. Some kind of technical problem.
Well, that's the story of my life, "rejection", "rejection". Will I ever find happiness?
How will I be able to communicate to the outside world of the unseen side of Chicago? Going through the alleys of Chicago, I have taken pictures of "alley art". Pictures not to be found in any of our great Art Museums. Pictures whose canvas is the walls of otherwise dull buildings. Probably the best way to describe these pictures would be "folk art". Myself, being "stupid", and lacking the ability to be an art critic , I find a certain type of beauty in these paintings.
Other pictures of interest would be the "characters" to be found on the "mean" streets of Chicago. There are so many stories to be found and photographed. Some sad, some humorous.
