losing out...
this man had owned a western store called millbrook tack and trailer since 1992. the bank recently seized it due to michigan regulations and higher taxes. walking through the store, talking about all of the merchandise that he didn't own any more... it was visceral how bad our economy is right now...
praising his kingdom...
hannah... out of everyone i know, you would've appreciated this the most... i miss you girl!

dedicated to my parents...
thanks for giving me a lifetime of amazing memories mom and dad... including this one, from age 4. ;)
i got bored while burning backup dvd's...
and before my mom even gets the chance to ask, the answer is no, i will never stop coloring on myself. ;)

one face...
at first, i was only going to post my bizarre crop/tone version of this,
but then i thought how strange it was, that after i cropped in...
even without toning at all - i couldn't tell if this was a girl or a boy.
then i thought about how earlier in the day on an assignment i was going
to ask a couple what the name of their daughter was - but i realized,
i had no idea if their baby was a boy or girl. (she was probably 4 months old)
this makes me curious about gender development and, i think i understand
more fully, how some people feel... caught between genders.
i hope no one feels offended by my thoughts.
oh the precipitation that percolates from a bizarre crop...
(top photo is toned = levels brought in, over-saturated, curves brought down, dodged eyes)
(bottom photo is levels brought in)
ely, minnesota
