Thank you Allegory,
Looking closely at things ordinary......makes them extraordinary.....here is a gate handle, quite ordinary but still interesting........

Quick phone snap from PDX airport, we watched the fireworks from the parking structure on the holiday.

HA, I wish.
I drive the most mundane low-end compact sedan. Cost me 9k new off the lot during cash for clunkers.
And I love it dearly. I will drive that car into the ground, dig it out and do it again.

Popster you have an amazing collection of the most beautiful photographs ... You seem to have the knack for capturing unusual and even ordinary objects as well as common everyday things that would go unnoticed and you bring them to life ... Some people have it .... Others don't and you my friend have a gift ... These pics you've shared are absolutly astonishing!
But most of all, you have the eye for great photo ops .... Thank you for showing a world we live in, yet never see ...

Ice,
can't mislead you.......some of my posts are my own picts........some are "borrowed" from others on the web.
But yes, I can agree that I have an "eye" for Photo ops and art........it may be part gift....but it is also from study and practice.
I have been to every major art museum in Europe and have spent days at many of them........beauty enthralls me.
your appreciation motivates me....thanks for expressing it. Very nice of you

An interesting use of an old wheel, such as Popster and Allegory were talking , a photo can reveal very
extraordinary sight out of something simple when zeroed in on…...

Ice...Linville has that same gift you think I have
Here's a hinge on the same gate with the handle I posted earlier.
