On this Thanksgiving weekend, with eleven family members in
town (three having come in from France), I will make this the briefest column I
have ever posted, by simply passing along the link to this photo collection from
BrightSide.me titled “The 100 Best Photographs Without Photoshop”:
My intent in directing people to this link was to kick off
the holiday season with these images of peace and beauty….though perhaps leavened
with a teensy bit of cynicism, as I just can’t help but question the idea that nothing
in any of these images was altered in any way, shape or form to improve the shot (and just
take a good look at “Flamingoes gathered in the shape of a flamingo” and tell
me if you disagree). But that really doesn’t matter to me. They accomplish
their purpose, which is to provide an occasion to sit back, relax, and enjoy
the slideshow of people and places, color and light, before going out on a first foray into the holiday shopping crowds on this "Small Business Saturday." Now out I go....
