Amazon has discounted my book 86% to $2. 😦 That's like the price of a candy bar. 😂 If you like short stories about historical people, this is a pretty good deal. I hate Amazon... but if you're curious about my writing, this is a cheap way to try it out. 😊 www.amazon.com/Vengeance-Am...

"Little Yellow House." #photography #photograph #photo #landscape #art #blueskyart #phoenix #arizona #architecture I like shooting with a narrow depth of field because it lets me have a lot of different planes of focus, leading to abstraction. That isn't really obvious in this photo I guess. 🤣
