rust and a self portrait

A few from my walkabout today.

I am considering the psychological implications of the pictures I took today.  On one hand, I am behind a goddess-like image in my self portrait, and on the other, there are these images that portray both being locked in, and being locked out. 

Oh, here is another one from today, where I'm walking under a ladder.  Pushing my luck?  Or letting go superstition?

These are by no means elegant pictures, but they were part of an assignment for my photography group. It is sort of a meme in pictures. We were to show 3 meals, 2 home photos, 1 photo en route to somewhere, one loved one(s), one photo capturing a feeling, and one self-portrait.


Here are my results... As usual, click on the pics for a larger view.
