Damn, July already feels so long ago. At least I THINK that's when these were taken. Maybe June? Jessica lent me her Yashica because I was tired of lugging my SLRs around in my purse. These photos really take me back to the summer. Fuck, that Major Lazer show was so badass. Skipped the line that wrapped around the block, got in through the back, VIP section all night, swimming with Diplo and co. afterwards. The sweat, my old apartment, Andy's old apartment. That dood with the long hair tripping on acid acting like a dinosaur. I'd never seen anyone get so excited about ice cream.
R.I.P. Yashica. The battery door broke, rendering it useless. So sad.
EXTRA special thanks to Aaron Flynn. We had never met before, but when I saw this androgynous creature at the 9/9/09 drum circle on the pedestrian bridge, I knew I had to get some shots outside of the crowd. After some encouragement from Andy, I worked up the nerve to ask said creature if we could take some shots away from the crowd. The creature turned out to be Aaron Flynn. I only had FIVE shots left on my camera, but I think we struck a little bit of gold. More collaborations to come.
Oh, I thought that those two shots that are split were my fault, but after consulting my negatives, Walgreens screwed up yet again. At least I know that the true shots are still intact!
There was something strange about this man that possessed me to take a photo, but I can't remember exactly what it was. I think we both got off the bus at the same time...he had a very unique gait.
These were from a day in this past Spring when you could still wear jeans with out them sticking to your skin but the sun was getting warmer and brighter.
