“Prachtkerl” / Fine specimen, hunk

Ahnold, guardian of Columbus, Ohio.

A bronze statue of Arnold Schwarzenegger, from his bodybuilding glory days, stands in a public plaza at night against a backdrop of trees, chairs, and tables and a warm-toned building facade with horizontally ribbed metal siding. The statue strikes Arnold’s signature “double biceps” pose, with waist twisted and both arms curled. A small spotlight embedded in the sidewalk highlights the muscles in light and shadow.

Sculpted by Ralph Crawford, in honor of Schwarzenegger winning the 1970 Mr. World competition in Columbus and his continued ties to the city (whose annual Arnold Sports Festival he co-founded in 1989).

      For your consideration: More kittens.

      (Actually the exact same kittens from Saturday's post, but a better shot.)

      3 kittens, around 2 months old, a tabby and white one, a tabby one, and a purely white one with a black patch on its tail sitting side by side on the stone wall separating the inner yard of an apartment building facing towards the camera.

                            Black-and-white street photograph with a slightly surreal and humorous mood. In the center of the frame, a man walks across a wet city sidewalk carrying an unfolded aluminum ladder. The way he holds it makes the structure surround his head like an unusual geometric headdress. For a brief moment, the ladder seems less like a tool and more like an extravagant piece of avant-garde street fashion.
The man wears a light patterned T-shirt covered in interwoven rectangular shapes, knee-length shorts, and athletic shoes. Captured from behind, he appears calm and unaware of the visual joke unfolding around him. The pavement is soaked with rain, reflecting soft light and creating shimmering textures across the ground, making it clear that rain had recently passed through the city.
The background is dark and minimalist, filled with railings, street poles, and fragments of an urban crossing. On the right edge of the frame, part of another person’s umbrella quietly reinforces the rainy atmosphere. The entire scene feels like accidental street theater, where an ordinary everyday moment suddenly transforms into something playful and strangely poetic.

                              A black-and-white street photograph captured in a raw, minimalist mood. Two women walk through heavy rain across a wide urban square, both shielding themselves with dark umbrellas against the wind and water. They move from left to right, slightly bent forward, giving the scene a feeling of movement and resistance against the weather. The woman in front wears a light long quilted coat reaching below the knees and carries a dark handbag hanging from her forearm. Her face is mostly hidden beneath the umbrella, making her appear anonymous and distant. A few steps behind her walks the second woman, dressed in a shorter jacket and dark trousers, with a backpack on her back. In one hand she holds an umbrella, while behind her she pulls a soft rolling travel bag gliding across the wet pavement.
The background is dominated by a massive concrete wall covered in repetitive vertical textures that resemble falling rain or rough woven fabric. The geometric rhythm of the wall contrasts with the fragile human silhouettes crossing the empty foreground. The wet ground reflects pale light, while the strong black-and-white contrasts intensify the cold, melancholic atmosphere of the frame. The composition is spacious and balanced, using negative space to emphasize isolation, routine, and the quiet poetry of everyday city life.

                                                            Today was a special day. As you can see, there's concrete in these photos. This is "The Jungle" as they say, full of apes, not squirrels, and this Jungle in particular, is downtown Statesville, NC.

                                                            Why Statesville, plaid-clad camera-person?
                                                            Because Statesville is the new location of my cousin's tattoo parlor, that just opened, and I got to photograph it!

                                                            It's called "The Parlor", go on, go there, he's awesome.

                                                            While those photos aren't public, Statesville very much is, so here's some photos I took yesterday of downtown.

                                                            As usual, my goal isn't as much to document where I am like I'm trying to prove it exists to a speculative audience, I just took a few shots while I was there.

                                                              There’s an historic home downtown from the 1800’s that had a ginormous old cottonwood tree growing in front of it. Unfortunately, the tree got badly damaged in a storm a few years ago and had to be cut down. But they left the huge stump in place and recently turned it into a free library with a full-sized door, plus the same style cupola and slate roof tiles as the house. It’s pretty cool. 📚🌳
