Make Room! Make Room!

“The Year: 2022. The Place: New York City. The Population: 40,000,000”.

“Ocean’s dying, plankton’s dying… it’s people. Soylent Green is made out of people. They’re making our food out of people. Next thing they’ll be breeding us like cattle for food. You’ve gotta tell them. You’ve gotta tell them!”

Quote from the 1973 movie Soylent Green. Sorry for the spoiler but if you haven’t seen this film yet, chances are you never will.

The film, which is closely based upon the 1966 science fiction novel Make Room! Make Room! by Harry Harrison, won the Nebula Award for Best Dramatic Presentation and the Saturn Award for Best Science Fiction Film in 1973.

I have no idea what type of product this particular plant produces but, out in the middle of the desert NE of Las Vegas would be the perfect place to process humans for food when the time comes!

And with that thought, please stop by and visit my personal blog, Photos By Emilio, if you get hungry!

Somebody’s pride and joy is now abandoned and left to rust in peace. Or should that read to pieces?

The Cobbler’s Shop

My beloved boots needed repairing, and this time the job needed to be done right. Fortunately, a third generation cobbler opened a little shop not far from my home. I’ll share a photo of the shoes and boots on the shelves another time. This time, it’s all about the shadows.

Windows and Shadows

Driving to town to run some errands, I spied the afternoon light falling on the lovely lines of this house. I just had to pull over. Photography – always an adventure!

Stillness of the Evening Light

Stillness of the Night Light

“So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.” – T.S. Elliot

I took this shot late one evening as I was retiring from a day of skiing. I had just checked on the kids and was climbing the steps of the cabin when I noticed the incredible detail of the evening light. The snow through the window and the dark shadows defined the stillness of the night while the light danced through the window.

Hoping you have moments of stillness with gorgeous light this weekend!

Rat Rod

I was on my way home from a friends house and noticed this Rat Rod which seems to be a trend here in the USA. A Rat Rod is a Hot Rod with a really strong motor and a ratty body (a sleeper).
