Explored! #16

I couldn't find a clever title for this one... anyone?

Oh.. and take a piece of paper and cover one half and then the other... it's more shocking that way ;-).

"Benjamin Button" was on my mind all day. I connected with the film in a way that I didn't expect and I'm still thinking about how quickly we all grow old. It's not a new theme with me. It seems that many of my songs that I've written over the years were about growing old as well. Anyway...

Today wasn't great... had to put out a fire at work with someone who refuses to understand that they can't just use someone's music without a license... let alone 3 songs in one commercial.

I'm ready for bed.

Strobist info: Canon 430ex through an umbrella at camera left.

The left side was was a shutter speed of 1/125th of a second... the right side was 50 years or so.. give or take a year or two ;-).
