Ornament When I pulled out the old trombone to photograph, I couldn’t believe how badly it had fallen into disrepair. It had ceased being a fully functional instrument decades ago, but I don’t remember there actually being a hole in the slide before. It is certainly nothing more than an… Read More »Personal Photo Project #159

The rest… Read More »Personal Photo Project #158 Alpha

But then I at least do something with them before I throw them away to justify the time they spent in my possession. Hence, this series with… Read More »Personal Photo Project #156
