Daily Photo: 20190121 Abby, then and now . . .


On this day back in 2009 I photographed our cat Abby. She was five years old.

Fast forward to today, where she's 15. And she LOVES this box! We'd gotten something from Amazon.com and put the box on the floor. Well, as you know, every self-respecting cat loves an empty box, and this one seems to be just the right size for her.

She generally tires of a box after about a week or 10 days. Not this one.

What's particularly strange is how much time she spends in it, just staring straight ahead. For maybe 10-15 minutes at a stretch.

Why? Is she thinking deep thoughts? Is she pondering the nature of the universe? The meaning of life? Where can she find a squirrel?

I doubt it, but then who really knows?

Then and now


In Mexico in 2008 I photographed a detail on a tin mirror. I posted the photo on my blog in April of 2009 (second photo).

This morning I revisited the shot, used some Nik filters to pump it up, and created what you see in the first photograph. It's not nearly as dark and murky and lacking in detail as my original.

Shot in 2008. Prepped and posted in 2009. Revisited and posted again in 2016. Wonder what I'll do with it in 2024?
