Layers are an ever-present necessity in Portland, no matter the season. These happy individuals used colorful clips to hang their discarded layers on their low-level chairs at the Waterfront Blues Festival on July 5, 2013. I particularly intrigued by how neatly it appears that the woman has hung hers, while the man to her right has somehow twisted his shirt prior to clipping it to his chair.

Pondering, seen on Trimet

Altered at BeFunky dot com, sharpened and underpainted.
  Picture this. I'm sitting on the bus when across the aisle I see these two women, looking similar in visage and clothing, with a good 40 years' difference in their ages. Whatever could they be pondering? Oh, I want to take a picture so bad! Should I chance it? Yes! I pretend that I'm just looking at my iPhone and take one photo.

Altered at BeFunky dot come, enhanced detail and HDR.

What's your favorite part of which photo, please? For me, it's the lady on the right's cheek in the top photo. I love the impact of the BeFunky dot come special effect underpainting.

The unaltered photo shall remain unposted.

Black and white at The Red Light

Almost a year ago to the day, I took these photos at The Red Light Clothing Exchange. on SE Hawthorne Blvd.






Looks like an iffy seat to me, a jewelry display case.
