The only time I shall ever be “tall and thin” is when I see my reflection in a Fun House mirror or shiny car! Not fair I say….not fair!

I’ve been trying to get to a car show all summer and finally made it this weekend! I love photographing all of the vivid colors, dramatic shapes and patterns of the old cars!

Don’t you think that this scene would make an awesome jigsaw puzzle? I love putting together jigsaw puzzles and really believe that in doing so, you help train your eye to see color, pattern and texture variations in the world around you. As you examine the puzzle pieces, you begin to observe the slight differences in color as your eye moves across the scene. You notice patterns and textures that you may overlook if you were not scrutinizing every square inch of the image trying to match pieces. Maybe if I move the wooden box and bunny statue, I could put together a puzzle right on that table while enjoying the garden around me! 🙂

…don’t miss the architecture! I can’t believe that I’ve never visited The Pagoda in Reading, Pa. until just this year! This is an iconic historic landmark situated on Mt. Penn overlooking the city of Reading that offers a wonderful view of the city. As the name implies, it’s a pagoda that was originally intended to be a resort when built in 1908. Today the building offers a cafe, observation area, tours, and can be rented for events. I love the architecture. Especially all of the horizontal and vertical lines in this image.

Train car number 47 has seen better days, but from this photographer’s point of view, it’s just perfect! What could be more fun to photograph than warped rotted wood and rust? Oh okay, dogs and cats, but other than that….??!!
