Gray

I did, in fact, go out today. I went searching for information and got frustratingly little of it. Picture-taking opportunities seemed more trouble than they were worth -- I think because of my thwarted desire to get something relevant done.

I console myself with the fact that not being told things is information, too. Even so, the gray dustiness of the shoes near the door where I was only too happy to leave them when I came in appealed to me. I played with the contrast and darkness and that did give it more pop, but in the end the original seemed more appropriate to both the day and the image -- so I returned to that.
