Dr. Despair: Nov 4, 2009; 39 perfect posts with each roll.

Welcome to the Dorkroom photo contest!

last month's theme was a wes anderson daydream, and feigning interestwon!

feigning interest posted:

EVERY MORNING I WAKE UP AND OPEN PALM SLAM A VHS INTO THE SLOT. ITS THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS AND RIGHT THEN AND THERE I START DOING THE MOVES ALONGSIDE WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER, WES ANDERSON. I DO EVERY MOVE AND I DO EVERY MOVE WITH AN AWKWARDLY STILTED AFFECTATION. MAKIN WHOOSHING SOUNDS WHEN I SLAM DOWN SOME STOP MOTION ANIMALS OR EVEN WHEN I MESS UP TECHNIQUE. NOT MANY CAN SAY THEY ESCAPED THE CITY'S MOST KISTCH AND PERFECTLY SYMMETRICAL BROWNSTONE. I CAN. AND IVE LEARNED ALL THE LINES AND IVE LEARNED HOW TO MAKE MYSELF AND MY WOOD-PANELED APARTMENT LESS LONELY BY MUMBLING THEM IN A MONOTONE MANNER. 2 HOURS INCLUDING WIND DOWN EVERY MORNING ME AND JULIO DOWN BY THE SCHOOLYArd

For the new month the theme is :911:

Facade :cabot:

Be creative!

Rules THAT MEAN NOTHING:

This thread is for posting pics & voting.
One submission/poster. Note that you can change your submission as many times as you want, so long as you only have one entry when the voting begins!
Single photos only - no video, triptychs, or multi-photo entries. Blending exposures into a single image (such as focus stacking, or HDR), is ok though.
Photos must be taken during the period of the contest. No pulling out old favorites! In case this isn't clear, the contest started after the theme was chosen in the last thread (not necessarily when I got around to posing the new thread), and it runs until the dates listed below!
Contest will be open until roughly the end of the month! after which voting will begin.
Voting will continue until Shortly after that! (or when I get banned, I guess).
Also, I guess no images? If someone has a kick rear end NSFW idea, i dunno? take it up with SoundMonkey i guess? I don't wanna get in the way of good
ideas and all, but rules are rules.
When voting, please deploy the spoiler tag. hail satan. I will announce when voting begins!
SoundMonkey will offer a prize of some kind valued at around $20 to the winner. Especially if you live in loving Antarctica or something. PM or e-mail SoundMonkey to claim the prize.

I or SoundMonkey reserve the right to change the rules in case I missed something really obvious that probably won't affect anyone.

Winner picks the next theme, probably!

My entry needs a spot of context. This weekend is the second anniversary of the Maidan protests that left a bunch of people dead on the square. If you had been where I was standing in 2014, you'd have seen this.

(Not my photo)

This weekend, that building is being used to screen footage from the protests and a documentary about it.
