Well if Nikola Tesla had his way, we'd have flourescent lighting instead

We were all pretty shocked when our teacher told us the story; did you know that they even carried out an investigation to find out what happend to the poor child after he snapped the photo? Carter was blamed for not taking her to a hospital where she could have been taken care of, and also, some say that he was actually hoping she'd die and the vulture would tear her flesh off her bones, and that this one's the shot he was after =/ that's probably why he killed himself, I couldn't have lived with that either.

In my opinion, he was let off lightly. All in the name of "let a starving child die while I send this picture off to get some monies".
F*ck that.

Yes but again, if Nikola Tesla had his way, we wouldn't need circuits
Everyone would have free power via Tesla Coils!

It's one small step for (a?) man...

Yes, you just have to play the C&C: Red Alert games to see that arch of history. As well as that though, I do regard Tesla with high esteem

R.I.P for what could've been some real sci-fi shit.

This picture means SOO much to me....



i really love how you're facing the statue of 'liberty' 's back and the spiked fences that encircle the viewer =D
it gives one the idea that the ideals of america, liberty, has forsaken the viewer x]
especially since this is so near ellis island...
it means even more so for foreigners =DD
atleast that's my poorly thought out idea...
*i'm drunk so please excuse the incoherence*
x.x'''

i took it while i was at ny this past summer btw ^^
