Friday, February 27, 2009 – Dangerous Times

There may be a tiger behind this door.

"Tiger Door" at the On Fire Grill, Melrose Avenue

Actually, this is the "Tiger Door" at the On Fire Grill down on Stanley Avenue, just off Melrose. For some reason they've pulled back the metal grill that usually covers this guy, effectively freeing the beast – a sign of the times perhaps.

Across the street, troubling details of a mural that's been there forever –

Always dangerous –

 Nearby, Elvis and Joan seem bored, not worried –

If you wish to use any of these photos for commercial purposes I assume you'll discuss that with me. And should you choose to download any of these images and use them invoking the "fair use" provisions of the Copyright Act of 1976, please provide credit, and, on the web, a link back to this site.

Technical Note:

These photographs were taken with a Nikon D200 – the lenses used were AF-S Nikkor 18-70 mm 1:35-4.5G ED, or AF Nikkor 70-300 mm telephoto.  The high-resolution photography here was modified for web posting using Adobe Photoshop 7.0 software.
