My Alibi

Love this photo.

I don't mean to be obtuse, but I have to ask why? A little square house. A bush. A plate with screws holding the picture. Something blurry at the top. I don't get what there is to love about this picture, unless it's your house and your bush and your screws. I am obtuse, so you'll have to explain. Go ahead.

I'm pretty certain my mother thought she was commenting on my site. My apologies.

No problem. I had to have Allie explain it to me, too. This photo was taken with a digital camera through the view finder of an old Kodak Brownie. The metal frame and screws are actually the housing for the view finder. It is our house.

Well, since I was asked. :)

I like image-within-image pictures like this. What I love about this one is that both images are wonderful. The viewfinder's scuff marks add character. The camera did not live its life in a drawer or on a dresser. It was put to use. The image in the viewfinder, slightly distorted and slightly hazy but perfectly framed from a cool angle, is also excellent. That it is your house only enhances it. Great job, Allie.

thank you so much Rob.
