I like my town with a little drop of poison

© Bottles, Berlin 2011 by Fritsch

I like my town with a little drop of poison / Nobody knows, they’re lining up to go insane / I’m all alone, I smoke my friends down to the filter / But I feel much cleaner after it rains (Tom Waits)

    fine lyric from the great Tom Waits and fine B&W, nice strong contrast to enhance the gritty feel.

    Auf wunderbar gepolstertem Sattel mit cool gepimptem Fahrrad durch die Gegend cruisen und dabei seine Tattoos zur Schau stellen … und … verblüffend mit welch lässigen Eleganz gleichzeitig das Geschäft der Entsorgung der Flaschen und Dosen und anderem Rubbish erledigt wird.
    Ein grossartiges Bild voller Zeitzeichen.

    Wow. Wow. Gut eingetütet und entsorgt. Das Geschäft der Zweibeiner.

    really good urban feeling in this one. suits well with some tom waits!

  11. I love this shot! The city and all it’s dirt and grit. What I find cool about this is the „wow! wow“ just above all that mess. Bravo…well seen and shot.

    A shot that remembers me so many things, my friend Peter now living in Berlin, the moments spent in Paris and Berlin, the bottles of wine we drunk, the women we loved, the same unfortunately, the musics we listened together, Tom Waits, Peter laughing to his lyrics, and so on…
    An inspiring shot for me, Florian. Thanks!

    A great urban shot! Showing the town in an other way… NIcely done.

  16. Seems like someone went on quite the bender here ;-)

  17. Wow ! Wow !
    And even a beautiful composition…

  18. This shot reminds me of a long time favourite quote, “I don’t like jail, they got the wrong kind of bars in there” – Bukowski.

    Cheers!
