The Shape of Things

One of the best things about being told to go out, get behind a camera and LOOK for shapes? All the sharp points and curves and slopes you've walked by a million times before and never noticed come into brilliant focus.

The square benches at the park.

The gentle triangular curve of the rings.

The sloping, steep bowl at the skate park down the street.

The leaf imprint in the sidewalk that you've walked over again and again but never saw. Till today
.

  6. Andrea, I'm figuring it out. But I'm leaning heavily on Picasa to edit.
    Dear Nikon, please send me an SLR to replace my crappy Canon point & shoot.
