Signs of the Past

Plan A--crash and burn! On to Plan B. This shadow box contains a variety of pharmaceutical products from about the 1930s or so. I wanted to remove the glass, but there was a time crunch, so I shot it like this. Not a great image, but the shadow box and its contents are very interesting.

I tried a sepia tone to give it a more aged look.

Another tattoo for my project.

Are you going to ask the tattoo subjects about their interpretation of what they have on? Do you ever wonder WHY a person would get it done and what they are trying to express. That motif of the fishes occurs often

I like the shadow box with all its contents and the tatoo image is very complex. I like it very much. How many have you taken now?
