the photography:
chicago has plenty of architecture to photograph. and talking about cal’s liquors last night made me think of showing off what it looks like. it’s quite interesting on the inside too. if you have the means, i think you should stop by some day.
the music:
constantines have been around for some time now (ten years even) but many have yet to hear about them outside of their native canada. amazingly, they are not from montreal. give em a listen. and go see them live, they put on an excellent show.
The Cal’s Liquors shot reminds me of an image a friend of mine took a year or so ago: http://tinyurl.com/c3t9b6
You’d probably dig his stuff, a Seattle resident for over thirty years, he shoots black and white with a hassie almost exclusively. The past two years he’s really been into street photography at night. Kinda spooky yet very tasteful . . .
Both of these images are delicious by the way.
