Description

A stack of empty red pails caught my eye while strolling the streets near my Shanghai hotel. This has been slightly cropped to eliminate some other distractions. I especially liked how one of the pail handles was going "against the grain" and not parallel to all of the others.

Hi Terry,

This is a great illustration of lines and design that you can capture by getting very close to a subject.

Happy to see more of your work! #1547035

Thanks, Lynne - it's nice to hear from you. I was super-surprised to get your note, as I'd just uploaded a bunch of images and not yet set them for "Display".
