A NEW YEAR SPACE INVADERsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #photography8 years ago (edited)

This guy was just sitting at the bus stop minding his own business when a lady with a bunch of bags came and sat down next to him.

Sweating and nervous, he tried to maintain his own personal safety zone.

But then she said out loud “Happy New Year, how’s your day going?”

“WTF?” screamed out from every pore of his face. Did she just speak to me? “OK” he squawked…

Meanwhile across the road, a voyeuristic sifter with a camera was watching all of this take place and recording it so he could post a photo on Steemit, and also on his blog.

And that is why, when in public, it’s always safer to wear a blank mask, because somebody may well be eyeing you up for a photo op.

So be sure to stare expressionlessly down at the footpath, or at your phone, and this won’t happen to you.

But if you ever are out in the streets of Wellington looking a bit odd, hopefully I will be lurking around to get a got shot of you and post it online this year 

MERRY NEW YEAR!



MY STEEMIT SIGNATURE

Because I want to go on about myself and blow my own trumpet I have written a signature. Sometimes Cheetabot points out that I am copying content off myself. The bot is quite right, I am indeed plagiarising my own Steemit signature, but hopefully all the important stuff was at the top of the post.

@sift666 is my Steemit alias. As 666 is the number following 665 and preceding 667, and I’m using the number here on my Steemit account, it might mean I’m a worshiper of Satan. Or it could indicate that I have troll tendencies I need to work out with myself.

My real name is Ian Gregson, aka wheels007. I’m a professional sifter from Wellington New Zealand. My interests include photography, conspiracies , web design, writing, nutrition, art, design, philosophy, technology, anarchy, health, computers, humour (humor), gratuitous arse shots, and anything that makes my eyes bulge while I make squeaking sounds (except torture).

Back in the glory days of Steemit (August 2016), I once made $404 for a post and went on a three month bender. It took months to work off the after effects of the hangover and I’m still attempting to understand how that ever happened.

I’m currently developing a new website portal to rival Steemit called www.frot.co.nz where I’m testing out a new feature called “frottage” that may revolutionise blogging and create a global paradigm shift.

Photos and pictures labeled @sift666, www.sift.co.nz or www.frot.co.nz are my own creations, while pictures with no credits are often ones I found in my image collection and have no idea where they originally came from. Otherwise, due to pressure to conform, I’m having a crack at including an image credit beneath each picture I copy off the internet. I do have opinions on this subject, but am practicing putting a sock in it.

To tell the truth I often have no idea what I’m going to post next, but I will be sure to include pictures. If you are a person who prefers mainstream opinion, my posts may not be entirely your cup of tea. But if you like to dwell on the wild fringes of conspiracy theory, or you are a whale with a massive blowhole, you might like to follow me on Steemit. It would be great to have you on board.
