TAKCC_201211_020.JPG: Stop!
Before you return books to this bin, please check:
Is it Takoma Park Maryland Library?
If yes, great!!
Is it Montgomery County Public Library?
If so, please hold it until they reopen, then return it to a Montgomery County Library.
Is is District of Columbia? Or a school library? Or even your own book?
Please don't drop it here! You will be sad, and it will take a very long time for the book to find its way home.
TAKCC_201211_121.JPG: Black Rhino #4488 & Black Rhino #4487
This site-specific artistic furniture offers all users of the Takoma Park Community Center a space to meet, interact, share a meal, hatch a new idea, or just relax. The sculptural forms provide shade at different times of day and the sunscreens' repetitious horizontal lines allow sunlight to filter through, defining an intimate place. Its organic forms are rooted to the ground rising up from the green roof. The vitality of these elegant yet simple structures resonates from the harmonious relation between a canted line and an undulating curve. The work's name references the number of estimated living black rhinos, a critically endangered species, at a time of its completion.
Produced by Sergio Martinez in 2015 on commission by the City of Takoma Park.

2020 photos: Well, that was a year, wasn't it? The COVID-19 pandemic cut off most events here in DC after March 11 and then the BLM protests started followed by the child president trying to steal the election in November. Trump's handling of the pandemic has been a series of disastrous missteps and lies, encouraging his minions to not wear masks and increasing the deaths here. As the chant goes -- Hey, hey, POTUS-A; how many folks did you kill today?
Number of photos taken this year: about 246,000, the fewest number of photos I had taken in any year since 2007.
