so passive and eye-glazey-mundane
I always think there is beauty in mundanity, and plenty of really good authors pull this off with aplomb. We often miss the banal and mundane because we're looking for the spectacular! And thankyou. I didn't think much about it as I wrote and it's not structurally sound.
I think rocking a basket to the gym is definitely a go. It's so much easier than rooting through a bag, as the English would say (how I went into fits of giggles when I heard this for the first time).
As for buckets, I got a ton of Mt Zero olive buckets for free from a sourdough bread company who was using them for their olive bread. I have tons of bloody buckets and tubs - the big plastic bunnings ones suprisingly split when you're carrying soil and rocks.
There is beauty in the mundane. I have started collecting photographs for a new project I have an idea for - haven't decided to call it friction or traction yet - but I am photographing the ground where there are places of evidence of friction or traction, the gentle erosion of soil or tarmac.
The texture is mundane, but beautiful. You'll no doubt see it soon.
Gives me something to do when I am not able to do portraits as regularly as I like.
I took a bag to the gym today. I don't think I actually have the balls to take a basket to the gym. I'll go back again tomorrow, will see if I have the courage to do so tomorrow :P
ironic, coz they're balls AT the gym!
I wouldn't mess with ya with that beard!
Looking forward to your new project.
