Eggs with Sepia Touch

I photographed the eggs, desaturated the photo, selected just the eggs, then applied a bit of sepia color to them.

Why am I photographing eggs? Perhaps because:

• My mother painted eggs.
• I am studying more about shiva, the Jewish mourning period after a close relative dies, and eggs are the traditional dish eaten by the mourner at the beginning of shiva. Eggs represent the cycle of life.
• Eggs are simple and beautiful.

Window Shopping in Deal

My daughter and I went window shopping in Deal, New Jersey (all the stores were closed at the time – it was a Sunday night – not that we would have bought anything, anyway) a few weeks ago. We had eaten at the local kosher Chinese Japanese restaurant. You would not catch me wearing any of these shoes. Mine are much closer to the ground.

Here is my daughter striking a pose in front of a children’s clothing shop.

Fair Ride for Summer Stock

You won’t catch me on this amusement ride at the fair to support local sports in North Brunswick, New Jersey (off Route 1). My daughter and her friend thought it hilarious that even my 13 year old would not be allowed on this ride – the sign said 14 or above.

I enjoy the little smile on this girl’s face as she marched with her baton down Fifth Avenue in the Salute to Israel Parade in New York City in May.
