Down Spout

A Moment in Photographic History:
The innovative French photographer Jacques-Henri Lartigue died September 12, 1986. Barely known until he was in his seventies, Lartigue was quickly known as the “discovery of the century.” His seventies? I still have a few years to make myself known.
A Photographic Quote of Note:
It’s marvellous, marvellous! Nothing will ever be as much fun. I’m going to photograph everything, everything!

    Excellent textural photo with the down spout adding a nice touch. Simple yet so effective.

    I’m sitting here, waiting for some exoctic, terra cotta colored creature to stick it’s head out of the spout, say something in a clipped, accented voice and disappear again.

    This would be a fantastic book cover. I don’t know what the contents of the book would be but I would pick it up to see.
