PAINTING WITH PETALS

Painting with Petals (7-17-10 10002ev2), is from that same old folder of pix I've been working in a lot recently. Just in case it's not obvious, I haven't felt the urge to take any new ones, so I'm rather grateful for the slew of old folders I have hanging around. When I work on pix in one of them it also gives me the opportunity to clean it out. In the years since taking them my photographic eye has evolved (hopefully for the better) and I actually do delete some. Unfortunately, many times not before I fuss and fudge in an attempt to make something out of the poor things. I guess I should be encouraged that my memory is still good enough to recall what originally drew me to take those shots. (I turn 70 in less than a month.) It's just that this very thing makes for numerous old folders of photos crowding my computer drive. I don't want to give up on those initial "visions."
