Study of one of the ornaments along the top of the Smithfield street bridge in Pittsburgh. These devices have always looked to me as if they could receive special messages and defend us against space aliens.

    Yes, that prickly sphere up top must contain great and wondrous powers.

    Clearly it was powerful enough to make me date the drawing January instead of February… but the effect didn’t last. This morning it was February again.
