Spots Before My Eyes.

I'm in what I could interpret as a time

of lean pickings, so when I feel my eyes being sucked in

by sharp Geiger Counter clicks I really sit up

and take notice.

I was recently offered a meal prepared by a friend who has the

impressive initials of RR. These cucumber slices were the very first

to appear on the table. I immediately reached for my little pocket Leica.

This cat photo below is the only one that I felt compelled to take

in a recent walk around the Auckland Zoo. Zoos used to be

rich picking ground in my early days but I seem to have

moved to other quarries. Still I am ready to revisit. I like to keep an open mind.

I would speculate that the spots on this magnificent animal are the main reason why

I picked up my camera at this point. I waited for

quite a while to get the best profile but that didn't happen. Looking straight at me would have been the ideal but I had a 3 year old with me and she had other priorities.

This photo below is not a work I would exhibit. It's the spots that are important I believe.
