Charm of the Ordinary
I love photographs that capture the charm of the ordinary. Usually I have to be aligned to snag one. Yesterday, I was sitting in traffic, listening to my chick-lit-trashy-book-on-tape which has been making my commute sinfully scintillating all week, regreting that spring wasn't here so that I could take pictures through my windshield of the trees in bloom in the rain, like I did last year.
When I'm involuntarily waiting, I often give myself the assignment to find a good photo in the vicinity. So I turned off my windshield wipers and started shooting -- and I like what I shot.
