A shot of a feather I found in our yard.

This doll is trapped behind plastic covering an empty lightswitch port in Building 66 at MIT. No idea how it got there.

Note - Right state of mind in preparation for painting.

Just about 5 years ago today, I was on assignment in Shanghai. The stint involved staying in country for about 3 weeks at a time. Which meant weekends wandering the city with not much to do, but I took up photography to fill the time. This was a tableau I saw in a back street market. #meanwhilethewifewashomewiththekids

 

Image made with my Olympus e-620 and the Zuiko 50mm f2 lens. 3 shot HDR (handheld). Processed in On1 Photo RAW 18.
