Shopping Carts and Flea Markets

My cell phone camera is, in a word, crap. Well, it is certainly not the worst but is definitely not the best. It has no zoom and the images colors are way off kilter. The pics can only be uploaded to the computer by emailing each one of them INDIVIDUALLY, one pic at a time, to myself. It is a long and arduous process, but I thought this might be a great opportunity to present myself an exercise in simplicity (albeit while using tedious technology).
So I set off to try to capture my day in a compelling way. No zoom, no flash, low resolution, a few words, a few things, a few moments, captured in utter imperfection.

The last pictures is so awesome. And the one of the little red-headed boy is fantastic, it’s totally cracking me up! The post made me laugh (I needed that!).
I am so glad to hear that I made you smile a bit. That make me smile. It was quite liberating spending the whole day photographing everything with such reckless abandon on a tiny little dinky dink cell phone. I loved that little boy. At one point he had fallen off and I went to help pick him up but he was so focused and determined to ride he jumped up, ran past me, and without a word climbed back on and rode some more. I also loved finding that ship photo and capturing spontaneous words that seemed to jump out at me throughout the day.
