Tim McLaughlin is a brilliant photographer and one of the great archivists of our local music scene. I would never question his eye or his wisdom, but I feel like this one needed to be punched up a bit for content, so I grabbed Photoshop and made some changes. Naturally, you can see I changed the route number on the bus stop sign to 17, obviously because of the symbolic nature of that number, which now gives the entire picture more artistic credibility. I also changed the stoplight to red to give it more of a subconscious, eerie stillness and sense of frozen time.
Boom.
