It seems that 2021 has started off the way 2020 ended. After a two week isolation after a covid exposure, the project has fallen two weeks behind. Fortunately, it’s early in the year and I have some time to make it up.
The picture needs a little touch up, but it seemed more important to get this posted and start working on the next picture, so here it is, in need of just a little touch up in the future.
It started with a trip to the office supply store, which just happens to be next to Zurchers. After picking up some ink for the printer, I went to the manager of the party store with an odd request. Sometimes it is difficult to come up with a creative idea for a photograph. It is always hard to ask someone if you can have their garbage. But she was kind enough to give me a bunch of mylar balloons that I could work with.
I made some fish and a mylar aquarium, I stuck butterflies to the apricot tree and finally decided on the picture above — a row of butterflies on a painted stick.
