Thursday, April 14, 2011 – Our Odd Gods

The ancient Greeks had their polytheism, a wide array of major and minor gods, powerful, but not all-powerful, impressive but each psychologically flawed. You worshipped them, but you didn't take them all that seriously. They could be petty jerks. And we're not all that different. The current billboards on the Sunset Strip –

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.
