A brief-yet-ongoing journal of all things Carmi. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll reach for your mouse to click back to Google. But you'll be intrigued. And you'll feel compelled to return following your next bowl of oatmeal. With brown sugar. And milk.

Thematic Photographic 135 - Letters
A night at the movies
London, ON, February 2010
[Click here for more background on Thematic]
You read the title correctly, folks: Thematic is back! I took a bit of time off from our weekly photographic sharing activity (see here if this is all Swahili to you) because I think I needed a slight change of pace. But after being away from it for a couple of weeks, I realize I've missed it. I guess this crazy little photo-thing of ours has grown on me.
I'm going to make things easy for this week's theme: Anything with letters! That's it. If it's got something resembling an alphabet, in any language, in any form, in any order, then I hope you'll share it over the next week.
Your turn: Post a letter-themed pic on your site - or find something you've already posted online. Then leave a comment here telling folks where to find it. Repeat. Visit others. Drag your friends into the fray. Enjoy the highly cooperative, absolutely non-competitive process. Because it's all about finding new ways to view the world through a lens.

Once upon a time, I found some abandoned letters -and a few snails, on a drive in south London.
ReplyDeletehey, Carmi, had fun w/this photo..here's my entry:http://afreshstartwithkalei.blogspot.com/2011/02/tp-135-letters.html
ReplyDeleteThis week, I've got letters aplenty. In fact, they're all frozen to my face.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm glad you brought Thematic Photographic back around. It's a Good Thing. There are far too few of those, these days.
Here are the letters I found; http://fredamans.blogspot.com/2011/02/thematic-photographic-letters.html

ReplyDeleteWhat a photo, reminds me of the blizzard of 78. My hometown had its own movie theater. My brother, dad and I walked a few miles to get to the theater where we (bro and I) happily enjoyed our first Monty Python film “The Holy Grail”. My dad ROCKS!
I have some letters of my own. Different memories, still good.

Why is it when we see things like C i n e m a in big red letters or a huge billboard along the freeway with a bunch of luscious green grapes ... we begin to crave that very thing? Think outside marketing now....and indulge yourself into something...anything!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to have Thematic Photograpic back. I don't know if this fit exactly but I wrote a letter to my blog friends drew a picture to go with it, scanned it and used it as my post. There are plenty of letters in my letter.

I couldn't go past this sadly ironic sign this week.
ReplyDeleteI found more letters in my pictures than I first thought.... less spooky than the last... still shadowy though.
ReplyDeleteWhy post one photo when you can post six! Sorry, I just couldn't stop!
