It’s ass day at The Constant Siege, and I couldn’t be happier.

Crescent moon through clouds and branches over Brooklyn, 4:47am.

I’ve got a thing for the moon:

Leaves and crescent moon, sunrise, Brooklyn

Full Moon and Thunderheads 32,000 Feet Over North Carolina

Moon and power lines over bayou, old Highway 90, near where Jayne Mansfield died, New Orleans

Antenna pointing at moon, Northland, New Zealand

Moon rising over Orchard Street, Lower East Side, NYC

Leaves above crescent moon, predawn, Brooklyn

Clouds, half moon rising, contrail at sunset. Brooklyn

Power lines, sunset, partial moon. Brooklyn

I really wish I had love that looked like this.

Richard Avedon, ‘Dovima with the elephants, alternate’ 1955

Iconic Photos: “The photograph of Dovima in black was reprinted many times but the image of Dovima in white was printed only once and the negative no longer exists. “It disappeared mysteriously,” Avedon said.”

Smithsonian: ”Richard Avedon’s photograph of a beauty and the beasts is marred, he believed, by one failing”

Crushed baby bird on the rain-wet asphalt outside of The Badeschiff, Eastern Kreuzberg, Berlin.

See also, and also, and also, and also, and also, and also. I guess I notice these things a lot.

The last also is my favorite.
