During the first week of school, I barely have time to eat lunch and go the restroom on a regular timetable. Adding photography to the mix (and then blogging about that photography) has been a challenge, to say the least. I was doing fine until Friday, when classes officially started for the majority of our students. For the most of the day on Friday, I was assisting students, training our new administrative assistant, and answering panicky emails. I also got to sub for a literature instructor who was ill and teach 1 hour of African-American literature. (Oh, how I miss teaching sometimes.)
None of these things are photogenic. What was photogenic was the beginning of my day, when I was able to snap a few pictures in the coffee shop across from my office. A colleague was running late to the meeting, so I took the opportunity to photograph the salt and pepper shakers, as well as my crutches leaning against the wall. I’ve been trying to get good crutch pictures all week, since they are the mainstay of my life, and this is the first one that I feel is decent.
