When I first viewed Martin’s image I thought I was looking at something organic, a seed pod possibly. I was viewing it on my iphone, the image was very small and unidentifiable.  Back at my computer I realized what it was, a discarded tennis ball, most likely the victim of an eager dog. I kept going back to the fact that Martin’s beautiful image was of a object that was of no further use to it’s owner, it was castoff. Art from a castoff object, I liked it. So here I am with another castoff item, a worthless piece of junk but beauty can be found amongst the refuse, it just depends how you look at it.
