Overlook off Matthew's Bridge by bus


Street lights dot the neighborhood West of Talleyrand Avenue from a view atop the bridge. A day laborer waits in the reflection on his way to work.


Later in the day I took some time to think about this picture. The visage of the man, the background of the landscape going by. For some unknown reason I thought about the upcoming upgrades to HD television signals next year, then I realized how many people on the street using small sets will be affected.

While the rest of us scamper for new decoders or HDMI cables, others will still be scampering for better food. It's all about planning. Us for ourselves for tomorrow, as well as us for those not able to plan for themselves then.
