Default The Extraordinary

The Extraordinary
-----
In time, you will find,
Many things found in the ordinary
Could it be, what you see,
Many things are extraordinary

Givin credit where credit is due to Andrew Stockdale of the wonderful band: Wolfmother.

Sometimes things are right at your front door in the realm of "interesting." Sometimes, we just don't see those things. This is a call to look for those things planted right underneath you at times, notice the little, the big, the obscure, the not so obscure. Soak up the world, take it all in.

I shot this a couple nights ago, it is the 3rd of my series of late night shots taken in one walk. Taken shortly before dawn with the Nikon D90 and the 50 mm f1.8. Gotta love the nifty fifty. Thank ya'll for checking it out, and without further adieu, here is

The Extraordinary

Model: NIKON D90
ISO: 800
