Looking at the Ordinary - revisited

 I was looking at older posts and came across this one from May 11, 2011. It is well worth revisiting. I see that I made them dark to make the subject of the mundane really focused. I wonder how I would approach that if I were to make these today ... but that's truly the beauty of creative photography and visualization, isn't it. 

Everybody sees what they see. I'm always on the lookout for interesting light and shadow. Sometimes it is found where most people tend not to look or, rather, don't look at. I am talking about the mundane.
