I have to admit that there often aren't a lot of photo ops on the days that I work. I get on the highway, drive to an industrial area of Hartford to an isolated concrete office builiding; then reverse the process in the evening. So I've fallen back on an old stand-by: literally a stand-by, as these trains haven't moved for over a month. I liked the image on the right. To me, it looks like a piece of pizza; my husband thinks it's a party hat on its side. I used the Glowing Edges flter, then inverted it to make a sort of coloring book effect that brings out the playful graphic nature of the graffitti.

Somehow, a camera allows me to see more deeply and awakens the eye. For me, undertaking these year-long challenges is a way to become more aware of the world that swirls around me.
