I never paid much attention to this lamp in my living room, it was inherited and has survived a move or two without winding up on the curb. It is functional, unobtrusive and serves as a good reading lamp. Today as light faded outside and I was thinking about what to post, it clicked on thanks to the timer. I saw the graceful curve in its neck and the nice straight lines in the glass shade. I saw that not only was it functional but it had nice form too. This is the light that is always on when I come in late at night from work. A beacon it greets me and its glow warms not only the room, but me. Yep, I'm leaving the light on.
As every photographer knows it's always about the light. This is a random collection of unexpected images and occasional thoughts sprinkled in for good measure.
