postcard from winsdsor vt.

katie barnes encouraged me to stop whenever i see a pretty picture and actually take it. new england is a nice huge photograph made of millions of pretty pictures. i see them everyday as i drive to and from assignments, but i usually save them on my organic memory card, my brain. today i decided to stop and snap. i parked on a funeral home's driveway and after a few minutes i left with some images of the kennedy pond in windsor on my sd memory card. it's not as good as katie's images, but if i keep stopping i might get better at it.

hats

as a kid i wanted to be many things. a cowboy was one of them (yup, i've watched a lot of john wayne movies and such). i didn't really like cows, but i loved the hats. and the attitude. i ended up at a rodeo last summer, and guess what... i saw real cowboys. well, they were high schoolers but they took themselves seriously. and so did the adults that were there. and so did i. and loved their hats. and the light. and i just kept taking picture after picture.
