Odds and Ends
Photos for Lens-Artists Last Chance Challenge. Not necessarily worse than other photos – they just couldn’t find their niche. Oh, look! A sculpture of my brain! Diana deserves an appearance because I have shown her ravished face and figure before – but she has had … Continue reading Odds and Ends
