Another weekend, another great #TeslaTakedown protest in Dedham, MA with over 100 peaceful protesters

The dino costume and the big black dog were my favorites from this week!

The Rollins Band
The Anthrax Norwalk, CT
10/26/90

This was probably the 3rd show I ever shot.  
I went to this show with Malcom from Trash American Style as he was a Rollins superfan then.

Some photos of the amazing signs at today’s #TeslaTakedown protest in Dedham MA. There were over a hundred people lining the sidewalk here along the Providence Highway.

Yes and I live in a major city (Boston). I doubt I’d ever get to the point that I’d actually use it, but who the heck knows with this shit show of a government we currently have.

Adam Tanner @adamtanner.bsky.social · Apr 24

This was an excellent episode, even as someone who has no interest in being a stadium level tour photographer. Your enthusiasm is infectious.

I’ve gotten similar results when trying to remove a mic stand from the corner of an image (in LR/PS) with it adding in a guitar or a speaker stack. AI is sort of useful but still needs a firm hand steering the wheel.
