    1. Thank you, Charles, I appreciate that immensely.

      I appreciate you and this warm community who comes back again and again and leaves such kind comments. Like a writer, a photographer has to work long stretches in solitude and I am so grateful for all of you who come by and leave a note.

      It's a white swan painted glass Christmas ornament. I tried to find a way to make it look like a dancer out of Swan Lake. I put it on an off-white pillow and turned it against the light until I had what I thought is like a reflection of a dancing move. What you see are the shadows, the rest is not visible because of overexposure. I try to do one crazy exposure every morning, to sort of get my joices flowing. Most days I discard what I shot, though. ;-)
