That's quite a photo. I thought it was sculpture at first glance, Lovely work!

Thank you, yeah, that whole Covid thing knocked me off my game. But despite the fact that I finally caught it about two weeks ago, I'm back, enough already. I have several projects going on something quite different from my past work that you may have seen here. I will be posting soon.

Actually, that's a slightly different game, Bocce. Very similar to Pétanque, with minor differences. In my neck of the woods, it's typically played by Italian Americans, probably brought here Italian immigrants. Watching people play them, either of those games, the players and all their movements are identical.

Thanks Ken. Going through thousands of negatives, most of them not very important, but every so often i come upon something I think is kind of special. I have only the gymnast memory of taking this photo. I know I printed one or two others from the same roll of film, but for some reason I never printed this one. I did recently sell a digital print of it, which was kind of fun.
