I’m wondering if this one is too contrasty. I really fell for the textures in it, but it loses a certain soft quality that some of my other images have. Input welcome.

a little story

My left ear has been clogged for two days. At first, I tried yawning. When that failed, I plugged my nose and blew out. Then I began to alternate between the two.

At the suggestion of a google search for ‘pressure in the ear’, I held a cup with a hot rag in it to my ear for 10 minutes. I took a hot shower and then jumped up and down, shaking my head in an exaggerated ‘no’. I continued to yawn. I tried to walk with a bounce to my step. I dug in my ear with my pinkie. I muttered ‘hello’ under my breath, to see if anything had changed.

My ear remains clogged.

Yesterday I saw some dinosaurs.

The dinosaurs were in poses nodding towards fierce, but as they were deprived of skin and mobility, they failed to scare me. Instead I thought of my own skeleton posed, hundreds of thousands of years from now, for some alien race to observe. Perhaps they will pose me hunting other, smaller skeletons, my hands wringing their necks in an act of dominance. Or perhaps they will re-construct me as I once was, applying clay to flesh out my body, picking out my eye color and plumping my lips.

I think I am done with this, but am sitting on it for awhile, absorbing comments and critiques.
