Thematic Photographic 395 - Letters

Old school writing machine
London, ON
September 2016

The scene: Museum London. I had come here with our youngest son so he could do some research for a school assignment. As we looked for potential themes that matched the syllabus, we came across this delightful old typewriter sitting inside a brilliantly lit glass cube. All I had was my smartphone, but I still wanted to commit it to pixels in some reasonable way.

As you can see, the light presented quite the challenge, as there was no way to avoid getting some sort of shadow in the shot. In the end, I decided to embrace it, and the result is what you see here.

Your turn: Take a photo that reflects, supports or otherwise evokes this week's theme, letters. Post it to your blog, website or social media presence (yes, even Facebook will count!) and leave a comment here letting folks know where to find it. Visit other participants to see what they're up to, as well, and don't be hashtag-shy, either: #ThematicPhotographic is how we roll. If you'd like to learn more about how Thematic works, click here. Most of all, have fun with it. Because photography is supposed to be fun, and I'm hoping we can get back to that in the year to come. Looking forward to the journey!
