Peppers Young and Old in black and white
Posted in Photographs, Journal on November 1st, 2007
Pepper #3 now bears the marks of her age, which makes her only more beautiful. A younger pepper curls beside her experienced lover and a harmonious contrast enfolds. They are an expression of entropy and sensuality, of young and old cuddling together in mutual affection.

I’m still not yet warmed up completely, I’m still not getting things quite right, though I am especially pleased with my progress on this piece.
I think Syra was right when she said my brief lapse from photography may have been good.
