Today marks the end of August 2024 and the end of re-posting some of my favorite images from 2008/2009. Tomorrow, Sept 1 starts a new chapter. I will be posting old images from 2008-2010 that have never been edited or shared previously. It has been a fun journey through my old files. In addition to finding fun favorites I've also discovered some old gems. I hope you enjoy this image, accompanying music and will join me on the journey of photo archaeological exploration for the month ahead.
Starting off the month of March, all this week, like February ended – Abstracts inspired by music.
