HooDoo Antiques and Serendipity

Serendipity at its best! I saw the big, pressed paper rabbit head in the window and stopped to take a photo. I had noticed a man checking his parking position as I walked to a stop; I didn't see him get back into the car. Once I focused on the rabbit head, though, I noticed his station wagon's tail light, reflecting right there in the rabbit's mouth! Oh, boy! I showed it to the man when he got of the car and came around to check how close he was to the curb. He got a charge out of it, too!

Today's as good a day as any to reflect--you pick your topic and go for it.

Lots of time as I walk east along this block on West Burnside, headed from Powell's Books usually so that I can catch a 12 or 19 bus at SW 6th Avenue, I've noticed the reflections that appear on the polished stone exterior of this building to my right. This time I had my camera around my neck and decided to take a photo. I wasn't quick enough to catch that pedestrian headed my way before the metal post obliterated our view of anything other than the bags on each shoulder, arms and hands, a tidbit of blue-jean-enclosed right thigh, knee and calf. Turned out OK, though. This is straight-out-of-the-camera. Should I have enhanced in some way at PicMonkey?
