franky

There is something heartbreaking and endearing about homemade cemetery markers, and I have never seen a fancy granite (or whatever) carved stone that I liked even a little bit.

And I am sorry for the loss that Franky’s family experienced.

that nurse seems unprepared

Side-show signage…somehow I just don’t think this little, weird scene is going to end well. That nurse seems unprepared for feeding two babies with only that one bottle, plus her uniform seems pretty tight for a job that involves bending over and picking up things (like, you know, babies); there’s a wardrobe malfunction in her future.

a fair abstract

Looked back through some old stuff the other day and found this, which just shows that even when I didn’t know what I was doing with a camera I was still trying new stuff. (I mean, I am going to assume I meant for this to be blurry, but maybe it was just a mistake?)

The fact that I think it’s more than slightly creepy is probably not important.

smile and a lollipop

She was happy, and happy to let me take her photo.

Also: it was so hot that I don’t understand how she kept her makeup from melting.
