" let me be your Main Man let me be your Cowboy let me do your Boogaloo hmmm...what does this make me? I see...then I'll be the Indian " -Jane Siberry, Ingrid and the Footman Inspired by TSC "Personal belonging", I took a shot of this chessboard I bought in 1990's. At that time I used to listen Jane Siberry because I found her lyrics fresh. I guess at that time, as an young adult, I was seriously trying to form my understanding on what is black and white, east and west, north and south, friend and foe, a difference between good and bad. And the answer of course is somewhere between... Or depends on the point of view. Technical challenge here was to use selective lighting and all the rest done "in-camera" (high contrast B&W).

Inspired by The Sunday Challenge "things that go together, I shot the picture that illustrates the relationship between me and my wife. In Chinese astrology I'm a horse, and my wife is a monkey. But of course my alter ego is a donkey who carries all the shopping bags home and is the ass in the house to blame =D However, monkey and donkey get along surprisingly well because donkey sometimes turns into a horse... =)
