(more) photo randomness

as our staff-writer(s) work up the courage to get back to posting regularly, here's a collection of some of the random photography we've scoured from across the web

let's start with something French, weird and old-looking:


followed by something just weird and old-looking: 


this one also has a kid, and is kind of cute...


while THIS one is just cute (but has a giant animal pretending to be something else)



another giant (sea) animal pretending to be something else, albeit with more malicious (delicious?) intent. 


yet another giant sea animal, but ridden by triumphant from Aquaman
 


and this one is just being plain mean to Aquaman :(


speaking of being mean. some long-haired hippie in a robe is shooting poor Chuckie D.



these two probably get along better than the 2 guys above (but only bc their last names rhyme)
 


and this is just a cool looking sculpture that can answer most questions...


in closing, some reflection on the value of what i currently do for a living


and perhaps even some thoughts on what i'd rather be doing at work. 

...or AFTER work.



and finally, a really cool old guy i know picking some fruit.

panorandom.

so it is still likely to be more than a month and a day* before any comprehensive photojournalism will be shared from recent adventures in Alaska, Turkey, or any islands of the Dodecanese or Cycladic variety. but in the interest of making semi-regular posts, i figured i'd share a few photos taken with one of my latest acquisitions - the mobile app Pano


so sit back and enjoy, but be prepared to open in new window, zoom, and scroll after the jump.

rooftop of our inn in Istanbul. Bosphorous on the left, Oldtown Sultanhamat on the right.



rooftop of the Blue Mosque in Sultanhamat (Istanbul)




grabbing a Coke and smile. random Chinese girl on left, Bosphorous (significantly further north on the strait) on the right.



back in Istanbul. the same random Chinese girl on the left (i'm pretty sure she was following me), and some idiot with a "4" shirt on the right (but man that guy looks cool/interesting).


Istanbul sunset, as seen from above. the problem with pano sunsets is the sun moves a little too fast



the island of Rhodes, sitting stranded outside our Ivy-covered Inn after the Turkish bath incident 



Akrotiri red sand beach in Santorini, Greece. the phone was dropped in the beautiful water shortly after this picture was taken.



and just for proof that Pano is great for party pictures as well, here's a picture of my buddy Damon with his evil twin brother Pierre (sans goatee)


that's all i got (for now). now that entire RamanCoke team has gotten through it's recent merger (and all the ceremonial duties required), you'll start to see us posting more regularly.


and if that wasn't enough, here's a picture of my boy Marty (not to be confused with my other boy Nick) telling you how it's going to be:






*don't hold me to that.

think different.

"Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."
