Everyday Images

In the theme of “life is what happens while you are busy making other plans,” this selection of photos demonstrates the surprising subjects that present themselves on any given day: a mannequin bust on a folding chair; a classic car at an auto show ; clams in neat rows on a backyard grill; salt and pepper shakers stacked on a countertop; the play of light on the bedroom wall; diner stools perched on a checkerboard floor.

Images speak. The camera listens.
