Happy Fall

Summer is over (unfortunately the heat is not) and I am ready to slip into a more sulky, introverted and creative mood, which fits Fall best.

Sharing a couple of Summer pics, most shot by Antonis and some by me.

You Only Live Once

"Anywhere's our home. On the road. Out there on a cold star. Anywhere's our home." -You Only Live Once, 1937

A picture for a friends blog, Rascalocity Mark III (http://rascalocity3.blogspot.com), described as "random and systematic attempts at modern old-fashioned noir literature."

I've been working on this since yesterday and I think I'm quite satisfied with how it looks.
