You never know ...

This was a throw-away photo. I took it because I liked how the rope suspended the gourd and wanted to do the same thing at home. So I took the photo for Chris to look at because he's good at ropes and knots and things. I knew the background would be blown out but that was okay because it was just a model for Chris. Well, this morning, looking at some of my older photos with new eyes and new skills, I figured hmmmm ... what if I add some texture and turn it into more of a sepia-toned shot? How would THAT look?
