The Offspring were pretty fly
This post is more about the experience than the photography. I found these old (not so old) photos in a folder from 2009. The Offspring gave a free concert at the Warfield in San Francisco on July 31, and a friend of mine was able to get tickets. Ha! Anyway, these photos were taken with a point-and-shoot, thus the first sentence. Continue reading “The Offspring were pretty fly”

Fort Breendonk: part of the Nazi machinery of terror (part I)
Although the weather hasn’t been nice these days, I still try to get out and take pictures every weekend. Last weekend I went to Fort Breendonk. I’d been there once when I was a kid and I remember feeling the same thing I felt this time around: Men are inhumane, cruel and cowardly.
