Something old, something new…
Some of us are curators for OPS – other people’s stuff – whether we choose to or have the mantle bestowed upon us by family and friends. With some of it, we scratch our heads and wonder what the initial attraction was and then gently pass it along; other objects have their own fascinating history – where they came from, whose hands caressed their smooth surfaces in passing, why they were so well-loved in the first place. These things become our legacy, but unless we take the time to tell their stories and get others to look at them in a new way, it is just OPS…
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Photograph Something New asks us to cast an eye on our immediate surroundings – See what fresh perspectives have been captured there!

Okay, I can’t resist saying that I read OPS as “old” peoples stuff–you can slap me now, if you want!!

PS–I’m getting my post ready for 2 cents Tues, and when referring to you, I wasn’t sure whether to use “she” or “he”–should I just go with “their”??
