round, and round again




"step out onto the planet. draw a circle a hundred feet round. inside the circle are 300 things nobody understands, and maybe nobody's ever seen. how many can you find?"

(a dozen bits & pieces to "round" off the old year and start the new one:

thank you - all - for the insights and the inspiration,
and may 2005 bring you peace and perpetual discovery.

  2. Happy New Year Lynn. I hope it's a great one! I love every one of your photographs today. I'm sure each has its underlying meaning of which only you are aware.

    Fantastic selection of photographies! I specially like the water-drops-floating-around and the cracked-down-wall-painting ones!
    Lovely colors in all of them!

  12. Maybe it's just me, and email me if you disagree, but I think this is one of the most phenomenal you've ever put up. I won't say "best" because I don't know how it meets your goals. But in each panel there are so many multiple rounds, and the panels lead so well into each other. I really think you pushed the envelope on this one, and I think it portends really good things in 2005. Maybe only in photography, maybe in the rest of your life, I dunno, but I know that the year I met my wife, I got an Indian Head penny in my change on New Year's Day. So there!
