A (1) piece of burlap; (2) Kodak 35mm camera that went through the Korean War with Daddy; (3) $4 bunch of carnations; and (4) shopkeeper’s antique ledger with daily coat sales and the weather.
Today’s blog post is a throwback to an earlier one that’s been on my mind lately.

I’m always interested in the juxtaposition of different textures for photographs, and these items gave a lot to work with — from the coarse burlap; the velvety, ruffled petals of the carnations; the folding-metal 35mm film camera and its still-smooth brown leather case; and the creamy-soft ledger paper with meticulous pencil-written notes each day.
