An unfinished bottle of Brisk.  Why di d the person not empty the bottle?  There might be half the … Read more

Thunder Bay – Saturday

Came across this bottle left in Wilson Street Park. There were two bottles. There are trash cans close by.   Why? Root beer cans are a rarity in the north core.  If the can is a soft drink can then its usually Pepsi. I like to take photos of the clouds but there needs to be … Read more

Thunder Bay – Friday

Trash in context.  Looks like the people finished their drinks here.  Sooo, since this is Thunder Bay, the trash was left in the exact spot where the product was no longer of any use.

Thunder Bay – Sunday

Yet another overcast, drizzly crappy day. I am getting fed up with it. Someone left this for the birds? Another piece of public art?  Its a very powerful representation of the city’s  slow decent into madness.   I hope this will find its way into the new art gallery when/if it ever gets built.  Priceless. A … Read more

Thunder Bay – Saturday

another crappy day. with the drizzle and the wind, opportunities are scarce. I suspect that these are handed out for free to people by some organization.  The stuff is expensive and has a lot of sugar in it. Another public art piece?  It speaks to me.
