Sometimes we plan ahead and rise in the early morning hours to capture the sunrise, only to find it obscured by clouds. Other times we await the sunset only to find it less than spectacular. And sometimes, every now and then, we just get lucky and a boring scene becomes magical.”
What could be more boring than a global industrial grid bike rack or

the concrete foundation of an underpass.

Then there is the magical moment of a playground in the early morning hours.

Beautiful light-spangled images, Brenda! Lovely.
Thank you … “lovely” is so nice
Leave it to you to show how the most plebeian of scenes can become magical Brenda!
Thank you…
I like the play of light and shadow around the bicycle rack.
Thank you Khürt…it was indeed inviting to this photographer’s eye
The lights and shadows are all beautifully captured, Brenda.
Thank you Amy
I like the concrete. SOLID!
Concrete does offer interesting images of “solid” structure 🙂
This is one of the things I love about photography–taking things people don’t notice or don’t think are beautiful and making them special.

After I read your comment, I found myself wondering if the elements of composition invite a different vision of what may be seen as “common”…
I think they do. “Common” can depend on many things, including where you’re from, what you’re used to seeing, etc.
