Socket to Me!
As a child of the 1960's, I was quite familiar with the phrase Sock it to me! when it was repeated over and over to great effect in the 1967 hit recording Respect by Aretha Franklin (lyrics by Otis Redding). The phrase invokes a spirited readiness to accept a challenge, as in 'give me your best shot'.
For Macro Mondays theme 'Socket'.
I hadn't initially planned on participating this week, then I thought of the title for the image (my apologies!). All I needed was Brian to perform, showing his best attitude and looking ready for anything. I decided to use a Brian with the striped shell as it complemented the striped reflections on the sockets which was emphasised in the monochrome treatment.
No snails were harmed in the making of this photograph.
