The Daily Shoot: “Make a photograph of something circular and crop it within a square frame.” A Mexican sombrero in a garden

This is one view of the downtown area of the city where I used to live and we raised our daughters. It is very pretty and even has a botanical gardens and stream. The city has preserved Olde Town, with its attorneys’ offices, specialty shops, and the original train depot. The area has received specific [...]
