And then there’ s me …

Thursday’s Special: Breaking the Rules
I was thinking about breaking the rules…specifically and in general, and this photo seems to fit the theme. If it was me (instead of the snowman), I would probably consider a couple of things before getting to the action. For example, not cutting the branch you are standing under. Or how safe it is to hold the saw barely with your fingertips. What about staying around after all the snow in the town is gone for good…also against the rules, isn’ t it?!
On the second thought…”If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun!” – Katharine Hepburn

Thursday’s Special: Abstract (Guest Challenge by Suzanne Miller)
This time on Thursday’s Special the guest challenger Suzanne Miller inspires us to experiment and have fun taking photographs: “The contemporary world is filled with visual stimulation that demands we pay attention and engage with it in some way. Sometimes it can be relief to take time out and let go of the urge to make sense of what is seen – to focus instead on the act of seeing rather than the intellectual processes of naming and analysing what is being seen.”
I decided to give it a try…
The longer you look at an object, the more abstract it becomes, and, ironically, the more real. /Lucian Freud/
