Fiction is Better than Truth.

The view from the roof of my apartment will be the thing I miss the most about living here. Let it never be said that Milwaukee is not a beautiful city when it wants to be one.

28 x 28: February One

28 x 28 is my attempt to post at least one piece of new content every day of February leading up to the 28th, which also just so happens to be my birthday. Some days I imagine the postings will be very tiny. Maybe a quick snapshot, maybe a drawing, maybe a poem or review of some kind. Either way, each day if I am successful there should be something new to see on this very site.

To start is a picture of one of my favorite views of downtown from the lower East Side. I don't know why it is particularly. Maybe it's because of the geometry of the cathedral and the buildings behind it and how they overlap. It's nice and snowy tonight, but not too cold to prohibit a quick walk.

The City From My Roof

You're going to have to click this picture to see it in a bigger resolution, but today was an amazing day in Milwaukee. It's recently dawned on me the intricacies of the city and I find myself appreciating it a little more than I have in my previous 22 years. Anyways, this is the view from my roof; a view good enough to warrant my renting of this particular apartment.

*Disclaimer* There was some tweaking down in Photoshop to filter out some of the grey from the sunlight and inject some warmth into the whole thing. The view is still fantastic.
