Near the beach, in May.  After we got back from the trip, I resumed taking photos on my walks.  I like discovering that there are whole big categories of things to notice.  One could do a big series on pods, much like, say, floors.

These look almost edible, but rather tough.  I doubt they are — edible, that is.  I think it’s cool that they have indents in their outer shapes, like waists or appendages.  But not all of them.  Now I have to notice pods more.

In the group fiber show I’m in, one of the artists constructed three huge, varied pods from paper, plant fibers, and other organic-seeming materials.  They are quite complex and compelling.
