"Monadnock Angel"

1921- Abbott Handerson Thayer
On Display at The Addison Gallery for American Art


They haven't been showing her for some time now and
frankly I've missed her. Yesterday, my heart skipped
a beat when I saw her through two doorways.
There she was, in all her ragamuffin glory,
her hem dragging in the dirt, her wings
tattered.. Clearly someone who
knows a thing or two about
how life really goes..

My favorite Angel.

Plastic Optic



Cape Ann museum


Walker Hancock's Angel
Cape Ann Museum

Shot with Nikon D800 & Lensbaby
Composer fitted with a Plastic Optic and
the f5.6 ring.

Post processing with Lightroom
Snapseed, and Hipstamatic



The plastic optic on the fully manual Lensbaby Composer gives a dream-like, soft focus look to objects. Its blur-field is pronounced which can make the object seem to materialize from nowhere.
