Stones and Leaves

Today I'm sharing a photo taken for my photography class. I'm leading a book study on Chris Orwig's VISUAL POETRY at Independent Presbyterian Church. It's my second or third reading and I never tire of Chris' photos and marvelous text. This chapter is on photographing ordinary objects. I found these smooth stones at the columbarium at St. Luke's Episcopal Church in Mountain Brook. 

Photo Homework

I am leading a book study of Chris Orwig's terrific book, Visual Poetry, at Independent Presbyterian Church right now. I'm also a participant. At the end of most of his chapters, Chris lists some fun yet challenging assignments. I'm all in with the other class members, so this week I chose "photographing a number of people with the same object." I grabbed my Tour Eiffel rouge and yesterday I visited Advent Episcopal School. French teacher Anne Barton kindly offered her 7th grade class. Granddaughter Eva is in that class, so I knew her classmates would be fun and willing subjects. I thought I'd share a few, although every single student was creative and fun to photograph, as well as their teacher!
