OMG...I checked him out and Mr Lev is correct. I too see it.....amazing!
Catherine Sherman replied:
I just found Eggleston's work. I like how he documents the items of every day life, which is more poignant as these items vanish from the landscape. I can't take much credit for the setting up the rubber ducky shot, as it was already sitting on the edge of this tub, but I did see it as a marvelous object in a beautiful setting.

Catherine, this is interesting. Are you familiar with the work of William Eggleston? If not I urge you to take a look. There is a thread of similarity in your styles. This image of a Rubber Ducky takes something as common and simple as a child's toy and iconizes it into a thing of beauty.

Thank you very much, Yuri. I'm not familiar with William Eggleston, but I will check him out.
