I have never simultaneously posted the same picture on both of my blogs, but I thought I'd try something new this time. Although this is not the run-of-the-mill art piece or even artistic photograph, I love it because it demonstrates the use of found objects and existing structures to reinforce an idea. In this instance, my goal was to take a picture of my friend Sheila in such a way that the photograph conveyed the idea that she was happily listening to music in downtown Athens. We discovered this cleverly designed fence during a spontaneous tour of the Athens area after a concert, and we both were enthralled by it. What a find! Then Sheila adopted her well-practiced "happily listening" face (an inside joke between us based on my first mention of her in my blog) and voilá! One of my favorite pictures of the semester was born.
Let's see how long it takes her to find this, shall we? :)
