More uses for the buttons.... Shoe clips came to mind. I love all those pricey embellished flats, but not the prices. So shoe clips are the next best thing to jazz up my feet. They're great for sandals too.

There's more to the picture

You pay for this, but they give you that
And once you're gone, you can't come back
When you're out of the blue and into the black.

A while after taking this shot, I saw a young man take off on this old rusted bicycle. It made me think of what a consumer I am... what a throw-away society we live in.
