Attention Carolyn:

Our new fire station didn't have a ladder so the artist's friend improvised.

mind's eye to robo-eye

When I shoot, I have something in mind but the camera doesn't see what I see. Where did that garish purple come from? Why is the image flat, dull, boring! I have to deconstruct the elements and set the camera controls to create my mind's eye. Tricky, very tricky!

I visited Suzzallo Library's beautiful ascending stone steps to learn my new camera's functions. Here are 3 experiments to manage saturation and light. Still have lots to learn!
