For today following Bob’s cobbler’s hands image, I had one in the file that would have worked great.

Kinda of under the weather today, and thought I was good to post it and back to bed.

Had to drop by my Mom’s house and did take the camera with me looking around early this morning for possiblities.

As a photographer we use the people around us as subjects often, my Mother included.  So usually when she sees me with a camera, up in shooting position, normally her hands are palms out.

This morning the light was beautiful and I causally asked her to per her hands up like this and boom, she did it.  Like I said, normally it is go away, don’t take my picture while running away.

She is 94, lives alone, has a garden and goes for walks just about every morning.  Those hands have done so many things, including smacking me and been to so many places.  She talks about riding to school on a horse. She and those hands have been and experienced so much.  I hope I can say the same at 94. Love you Mom.

This is my posting to the http://DailyPhotoGame.com where 10 photographers play off the preceeding image.

My question of the day, for me, was “What is the wooden skeleton sitting on the bench thinking?”

That got me going.   The guy was enjoying the view from the bench, day dreaming but did look a bit parched with the big crack in his head.

So tongue in cheek I went off to answer my calling.  Dreaming in solution forever.
