You wake up, you go to work, you do stuff. I think everybody’s always looking for something a little unusual that can preoccupy them and help pass the time.”
― Susan Orlean, The Orchid Thief: A True Story of Beauty and Obsession
Garden photography is my “something a little unusual” that preoccupies me and helps pass the time. Orchids also help me empty my wallet. This one cost $30 at Super Stop & Shop. I’m photographing Brussel Sprouts tomorrow: they’ll cost around $3.50 and I can eat them several days in a row. It’s more economical to obsess about Brussel Sprouts.
