diptych # 169-170 ~ a fortuitous change in plans

Went out to make some late day pictures only to realize that I needed petrol in order to drive around and seeing what I could see. For reasons too complicated to relate here, the nearest petrol station was about 12 miles away from my intended picture making destination. Consequently, the 24 mile there and back again diminished, in fact eliminated, the possibility of late day picturing and left me with the gloaming, light wise.

Fortunately for me, I really like making pictures in the gloaming. It's a "mysterious" time of day which appeals to my eye and sensibilities so I didn't consider this chafe of plans to be a negative one.

FYI, the picture of the signs was a very fortunate opportunity that will likely be used as the cover of my new book - new body of work - entitled Signifier & Signified ~ information overload.
