Mom with Balony Sandwich

"MOM WITH BALONEY SANDWICH": IN A CLASS ALL HER OWN

All of the prints I am offering are printed using the most advanced inkjet technology and best paper available at this time. All of the prints are $90.00, which includes shipping. All of them, that is, except this one. The cost for "Mom with Baloney Sandwich" is $500.00. Why? I have a million reasons.

My mom was a great lady. She was funny, creative, charming, intelligent, a gardener extraordinaire. She could look like a queen or a bag lady. She had the most amazing face. She was MOM. She was unique.

This photograph captures her with a totality I only wish all of my images could claim for their subjects. This is a precious moment in time, captured in nanoseconds. The very next instant, my big black German Shepherd was trying to get that balony sandwich. And yes, I have that moment also, which I will offer in the near future.

But I digress: "Mom With Baloney Sandwich" represents my finest moment as a photographer. Perhaps I am too attached to it, but that's how it is. Mom, with those shoes, in one of our old dresses, the squished sandwich, that hair, that face, those great legs that yes, perhaps needed a more recent shearing. It was taken in front of the house that my Father built, which was demolished last year.

In any case, I hope you enjoy this photograph, which you can view right here any time.
