Title: Stye
Post by: BobDavid on July 08, 2015, 02:32:18 am

I had an icky morning at the beach. My right eye bothered me. And I forgot the gizmo to mount the camera onto the tripod. Annoyed, I didn't capture anything worth saving. I went to the doc and found out I have a stye....  This picture is a mashup of a messed up photo session. My stye has calmed down a bit--antibiotics and drops. Sheesh.

I like the your photographs for themselves and I like them more for the way they speak of the photographer.
I would be tempted to think of your shots as self-portraits.

One might say that you have made a silk purse out of a ... er, an  eye's stye.    ;)

Not my cuppa tea, Bob, but very interesting. I like it.

Eye-Stye rhymes with Sci-Fi, Psi-Phi, and Hi-Fi. Why I wrote this serves no purpose. Eric's wordplay "eye's stye" grabbed my attention.
