this week, for this wedding (the one i was given Quinn for) i bought Quinn the most sexy "after five" cocktail hat. which in the world of cameras is a really good flash.
i am thinking of taking a self portrait of Quinn with her after five hat. . . so everyone can see how lovely she is. this however, might be taking my love of objects a little too far.
this does bring me to an observation that we have stayed with photos of our spaces and cities, the skies and sidewalks around us. all these things (or nearly all) feel to me like symbolic self portraits, but we have not photo-ed people or ourselves. was that a conscious choice? or has it just happened?
when i first moved to new york, i used to joke that i wanted to get my life out of the phone and out of the computer. i hadn't yet created the local real live community that i am so thankful for now in my NY world. i wonder how we feel about including some (hints) of these people/communities?

the only exception to the no people in photos is of course Troy with Beastie . . .. i still love how in that photo it looks like Troy and Beastie are out on the porch looking at the sky together. Troy maybe saying, "what's that B? look at that in the sky". . .
