What is it? ... the answer by John Wright

For those curious… I’ve let the guesses go long enough…

What is it?

is a lawn-mower bag in full sun. It was draped haphazardly over the handle while prepping the mower. I noticed the strong contrast between the light and dark and grabbed my camera. The image is over 20 years old, I had just started college and was on a macro assignment in my college photo class. The result caught the attention of the instructor and he put it up on the wall in the art building for everyone to see.

So as you can see, some of you were really close. ;-)

Kodak B&W ASA 100 film, Minolta SRT-101 camera, cheap Vivitar 35-105 f/3.2-4 zoom… my first setup.
