Love a corroding wall.
Hate a corroding country.
New thought: lets augment banging our heads against (beautiful) walls with banging on our elected representatives' doors.

Making a melodramatic tragicomedy with cranberry beans.
(cue the ominous music)
If you listen carefully, you'll hear the sounds of fiendish glee.

I don't know about you but when I visit places, I like to bring back a pebble or a stone.
P.S. I highly recommend this as a gentle, low impact creative exercise. You'll be amazed what you start to focus and fixate on that will impact your larger photographic practice.

We all have (at least) one junk drawer in our homes; where the random thingamabobs, doohickies and whatnots, not to mention the stray rubber bands, paperclips, old scissors and other stuff gets tossed.
Where you may see a spring cleaning project, I see an hour or two of delight with my camera.

So much fishy stuff going on these days...thought I'd throw in a version that is equally eye rolling...but in a totally delicious way.
On a personal note, I need to be marinated more often.

Accosted.
Exhausted.
Disgusted.
I miss being flabbergasted.
Even my flowers are pissed.
