This black Nissan Silvia was a sinister presence at #GRIDLIFE last year, but the reflections from its surfaces killed the dark-and-menancing tone. I’d typically address this with a polarizer, but didn’t have one handy. Luckily, some polarized sunglasses did the trick. I rather like the effect of the bokeh’ed-out lens in front of the car, like a bodyguard waving away paparazzi.

Civics with Wings
There’s something about seeing humble (but race-prepped) Civics going toe to toe with drastically more traditionally quick (and expensive) vehicles that’s very satisfying. In addition to what I’m sure are serious weight-reduction, suspension, and power improvements, the dramatic aero makes a big difference.

Piper & Sundae
Seeing Piper Klemm with her horse, Sundae, makes it easy to understand why she loves riding so much.

Ball in Gaol
The reclaiming of Kilmainham Gaol for some better use than supporting English imperialism has included its use in a variety of artistic projects. Those include the location for various films (more on that in an upcoming post), as well as for art installations like this odd twig sphere inside a cell.
