a light aslant

photos kirk took in an antique shop in ocean park, washington
with my new canon rebel.

we also saw the most amazing lamp: wooden, a carved woman nearly five feet tall with a face like a saint, standing on a pedestal, wearing a dress that draped so elegantly, nearly medieval, her hand curled upon her breast; she held a pole that reached up above her head and it dripped crystals and lights, like a chandelier. i can't believe we didn't get a picture of it. it was $1,200 but sometimes i think it would be worth it.
