love this photo

Taken by a talented local photographer, that church is about a twenty-minute walk down my street. My street! See where the car is climbing the hill? I walk on that sidewalk all the time, but now when I do I try to figure out exactly where and how the photo was taken. I love the black and white, and get drawn in every time. But best of all—the photograph is now mine! I won it in an online auction last month, and even though I'll be paying it off via credit card for a while, I have no regrets. Art is the only luxury (necessity?) I don't mind investing in.
