A great talent to take the ordinary and make it something special. You do have a great eye to see things differently.

Ordinary things are among the most challenging for the photographer (everybody can take reasonably good pics of extraordinary things, I would say). Excellent collection!

like this gallery, a photographer's mind at work where ordinary folks oftentimes overlook. V
