I dont know what this means, this juxtaposition. The antique and the modern clash on the rooftop of a neighbor's house. It is only visible though from a hidden staircase.
I've also started taking photos of colorfields - large expanses of pure color. I've discovered that this works best when there is some small imperfection in the field - an object, a speck, an impurity. The enormity of the snow field is best seen as a contrast to the footprints of a small animal which has wandered through. The sky seems limitless as a field of blue intensity, broken only perhaps by a white wisp - a tiny roving cloud.

is that blue house here in san francisco? or italy. or mexico. or spain.
It is in Bernal Heights!
It's possible that the bust is a guardian; hidden from view so that the homeowner doesn't appear to be a hick. South Indian homes are usually by busts or images of Rakshasas (demons). Even new homes and office buildings in otherwise ultra-modern Bangalore have incorporated them in their design.
