Editing in December

I've submitted my final papers to my adviser.  Now it's time to prepare for January.  I need to sort through close to 500 negatives and decide which 20 to 25 images to bring to residency.  Below is the beginning of this process.

Still Lifes

The first five images contain wooden organ toes, parts of a pipe organ. The knobs adjust valves to control the flow of air.  The varying sizes and textures of these small vessels remind me of little people or souls now orphaned.

The following image is of my childhood scrapbook.  On the left side was an iron-on Phladelphia Eagles football logo, on the right a collection of holy cards.

Next is from my first grade copybook.   It seems to be mostly for penmanship and spelling with prayers of gratitude intermingled.
