Modes of Transportation

Please forgive my impertinence, but I chuckled when seeing a Go-Go brand four-wheeler parked alongside more traditional two-wheel scooters—the former being designed for people disabled by age or infirmity. You’ll find younger, abler-bodies riding on the others.

The group seemed so right together and yet so wrong—meaning: The four-wheeler, or its driver, aspiring to be more like the others, who should stop and wonder what they might someday truck on. Of course, the little vehicles will be voice- (or mind) activated, artificial intelligence-guided, and self-driving decades when need arises to use them.

I used Leica Q2 Monochrom to capture the Featured Image along Adams Avenue at Old Trolley Barn Park in my San Diego neighborhood of University Heights. Vitals: f/3.5, ISO 200, 1/125 sec, 28mm; 7:36 p.m. PDT, July 22, 2022.
