Shards and Phractures

October 21, 2006, there was an airshow out west of Phoenix. They had all kinds of things worth looking at, but the part that fascinated me most was the last thing they did before packing it all away--the Balloon Glow. -=ad=-

Nothing like some home-made treats (glazed popcorn) to bring all the local neighbors over for a taste. ...and of course, I couldn't resist dragging out the camera. -=ad=-

...continuing with the battered antiques at Jerome theme... -=ad=-

Found this dilapidated shack in Jerome, Arizona. It's located at an old mine that's been revamped by the owner, and it's surrounded by antique cars. I don't much like the white, blown-out sky, but it was overcast and I had no idea at the time what to do about it. -=ad=-

...we never did get any seeds out of this sunflower...probably because the insects beat us to it... -=ad=-

...I've said it before...I generally make it a point to not murder my models after the photoshoot is done, but in this case, I had to make an exception... -=ad=-

Flowers for the wife... -=ad=-
