[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
At the ABC store on Groucho Road, there is old and there is ancient. And then there's Ancient Ancient. The longest 10 years in the record of timekeeping go into the smoking of this amber elixir. And eons will pass before you are free from its spell. The Ancients, true, have their wisdom. But the Ancient Ancients have something much greater. They have spirits.

Hi Hugh,
Quirky shot, good pose, excellent composition and a lovely clean texture to this shot.
Good note too!
Thanks for sharing.

Best regards,
