Glass Blocks

My brother and sister had afternoon appointments a year ago, and I was pretty sure I'd capture my photo-of-the-day on my way to Kalamazoo. That didn't stop me from experimenting with the camera in the day's great light. I got some fine photographs.

The photo above shows the outside wall of the Mulliken fire station. It's an interesting building--nothing fancy, but nicely done. This photo kind of turns things into an abstraction, which was my intention.

The wall's been painted since I took this photo, and the door repainted.

I've shown you this wall before.

My Dad's first new car was a 1960 Ford Falcon, in a pale blue, purchased (I think) in January of 1960. His earlier cars had been pretty utilitarian, and perhaps less than trustworthy. This car gave our family wings.

The 366 Snaps photo captures a car that looks exactly like Dad's Falcon. It was for sale just south of Hastings, on my usual route to Kalamazoo, last fall. So a year ago I stopped and shot its photo.

The car's been sold. I miss seeing it on my drives to visit my siblings.
