A few shots from today

Started the day dropping off my print at the gallery (but first I dropped the frame on the way out the door--fortunate no damage occurred).

Then headed to an abandoned house full of stuff...specifically lots of cookbooks, photo slides and information about pigeons. I don't know why pigeons. There was also a newspaper there from 1932 (didn't get a picture) and a 1928 Dodge Brothers Coupe (didn't get a real good picture of that either, sadly) and an older Mercedes 230SL (picture below).







This looks like a slide of a bunch of barrels dumped somewhere. I can't make out the words on the slide (I think it says Memphis Dump)


Then I headed to a nearby town and did a spot of street photography but didn't stay long 'cause it was cold.

Two friends saying goodbye after a late lunch


We were told we couldn't photograph at this spot, so, you know, I snuck one.


A sign-spinner who was very happy to have his photo taken


And now I'm sitting home nice and toasty warm ready for a nap but it's too late for one. Boo!

Very nice photos. I particularly like the one of the two friends saying goodbye after lunch.

It's the two things I do... abandonments and street photography. I don't understand the variety myself.
