Fairground

1. The primary purpose of this photograph is to cheer Ty up.

2. This was taken at the Alameda flea market, a market held on an old landing strip (read: huge). I haven't the faintest idea what the big round thing is, I just know the whole scene—ferris wheel spokes, twisted fun-mirror reflections, dotted lined lights, scuffed and shabby boards—for a split second had all the ingredients of a carnival fairground.

If by "cheering me up" you mean "pissing me off" then you wildly succeed. Oh. My. God. That photo is what one can easily call a "career" photograph. Dorothea Lange's "Migrant Mother." Please.

I get it. You are cheering me up by making me have to work to compete with this type of BRILLIANCE.

Congrats!

this truly is the best photograph in the history of photography...
