a pear-ilous perspective

I know. That was horrible. But I just couldn’t help myself with that title. I’ll try to be more disciplined with my words next time. Meanwhile, I hope you have had a good day. 😉
currants or gooseberries?

A friend picked these up at a local farmers market. I thought she described them as currants but someone else called them gooseberries.
While their tart taste is not to my liking, I do appreciate the variation in shades of color.
I especially like the intricacy of the husks.
I probably won’t purchase anymore but this little batch did make for a great procrastination photo shoot. 😉

beauty in the broken
Posted in Inspiration, tagged compassion, earrings, Inspiration, light, mental illness, musings, Photography on September 17, 2012| 1 Comment »
I have this pair of earrings that sit on the windowsill. They are broken but their beauty is such that I cannot make myself throw them away. When I get into a cleaning mood, when I just want to create some space, I almost reach for them. But then the light … yes, always the light … will strike the pieces revealing a uniqueness that once tossed I will never find again. That is the thought that came to mind this morning as I found this image on my camera. I often have trouble labeling a photo but instantly the words “broken light” appeared in my head. And those two words brought to mind an inspiring blog, Broken Light: A Photography Collective. The site presents the powerful words and images of those living with, or affected, by mental illness. If you have not had a chance to view Broken Light, I highly recommend a visit. 😉

a bit of purple

I was photographing shells on black paper when I decided to see what would happen if I tore apart a nearby blossom and photographed the petals on the paper instead.
