Dear Photograph,My Oma was brave, humble and artistic.She taught me to be all of these things.  We loved being with her and she always took us on adventures…going to cabin #8 was one of our favorites. My husband and I return there every summer and it’s where I feel the closest to her. Every time, I bring this photograph and place it on the mantle. I take her with me always.Carly

Carly is an extremely cool person and a great friend and a really excellent photographer.

Extraordinary photos of young hitchhikers and freight train hoppers by Mike Brodie

Mike Brodie (tumblr | facebook) first began photographing in 2004 when he was given a Polaroid camera. Working under the moniker, The Polaroid Kidd, Brodie spent the next four years circumambulating the U.S. amassing an archive of photographs that would go on to make up one of the few, true collections of American travel photography. Having never undergone any formal training, he chose to remained untethered to the pressures and expectations of the art market. z

The scene is taken directly from Stephen King’s novel. In one of the novel’s scenes set in the 1920’s party, Jack is dancing with a beautiful woman. He notices that at one table, there is a young man behaving like a pet dog for the amusement of others, including a tall, bald man.

The bald man is Horace Derwent, a Howard Hughes-like figure who poured millions into restoring the Overlook Hotel in the 1920’s. (Jack has learned this by reading a mysterious scrapbook earlier in the novel.) The younger man has a romantic crush on the bisexual Derwent, and Derwent has said that ‘maybe’, if the man dresses like a nice doggy, and acts like a nice doggy, he ‘may’ be willing to sleep with him.

Later on, in the novel, as Wendy is warily navigating the corridors of the Overlook, she begins to see the visions of the 1920’s party. And at one point, peering around a corner, she sees the two men on a bed, one in a doggy costume. The two men are Derwent and his extremely dependent lover.
