Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

In geometry lectures he was so complacent
He got confused with parallel and adjacent
In algebra he floundered at every equation
In first aid he couldn’t dress an abrasion

Plastic Fantastic

Yes, There's Beauty In Mundane Objects Too

Photograph copyright: DAVID McMAHON


So why did I take this shot? Not just because there were two crates stacked neatly on top of each other, but because the geometrical aspect appealed to me. What geometry? Look carefully at the shot and you'll see large squares in the mid-frame area, but smaller diamonds in the top and bottom sections.

It also intrigued me that there was a topsy-turvy orange crate in the background, which gave me an interesting counterpoint as far as depth of field was concerned. Just because something's a grey object, it doesn't necessarily mean it's a grey subject as well.

Yes, I know I'm getting into a grey area here ....
