some things are bigger than us...

i saw this yesterday over in social medialandia and the sentiment i thought of when i saw it is still resonating with me. so i thought would be perfect to share here.

some things are just bigger than us. whether it may be shadows, ideas, bikes, bike parties, life, death, art, film, etc. our place in this world is smaller than we imagine, so we better make the best and biggest bang we can within our little space.

also, this foto reminds me a bit of felini's 8 1/2.

--i'm not sure the original source of the photo, so if you know, please let us know in the comments and the info will be updated.

nyc bicycle balancing act

whoa. i opened up my inbox today to see this glorious photograph taken by stanley kubrick, better known as the director of the shining, a clockwork orange, and full metal jacket, among others.

and you thought you had balance when you ride your bike with no hands. whoaaaaaaa.

also...what composition! amazing.

happy tuesday everyone! SF is expected to get gusts of wind up to 50-70mph (if a certain local news outlet is to be believed). not sure if that means i'll be muni-ing it or braving it out there. get ready for it y'all...
