PHOTO: Clarksburg, CA. Digital.The green chair was so exciting. It was my favorite kind of green, and it looked like it had been very well used. Someone loved that chair. In fact, I loved that chair. I wanted to take it home with me, and display it in all of its glory. It would have looked so nice. I can picture exactly how it would have looked sitting next to a full bookshelf, and a nice black desk with papers nicely organized on top. However, that chair belonged to someone else, and it looked so comfortable in its surroundings that I couldn't bear to move it....not even to get a better picture. So I snapped my mediocre picture and stood for a moment inspecting closely at all the subtleties I had previously missed. I noticed the intricate details in the rusted metal, and how the color brought out the speckles of green paint that remained intact. I then noticed the details in the fabric and leather. I hoped that I captured all these details in my picture, but knew if I didn't it would just give me an excuse to go down and sit with this particular chair again.
