(Day 171) - Pocket Clippings

It may not be the easiest to keep clean, but you can never go wrong with a white dress shirt. Got my trusty paperclips in tow as well. The tie could fall off and might need to paperclip it back on...haha...I kid! 📎

Wonderful -- especially paired with the one on the black background.

[Kathy A]

This is fabulous! I would prefer it without the paperclips but hey, that's just me, again 🤣

[Shutterbug]

Beautiful minimalist highkey. Love the humor of the paper clips.

[Jerome]

splendid
love it

[Mary Siegle]

I especially love the paper clips, which I might have missed had you not mentioned them.

[Dustyloup]

If variety is the spice of life then three sizes of paperclips at the ready is...
Fill in the blanks because I can't think of what to write next 😂

[ZambianLass]

This is fabulous

[Jennie B.]

I like the paper clips in 3 sizes as well as the white shirt. My question is are you actually wearing these shirts and ties as you are taking the photos or are they props?

[katy]

The perfect counterpoint to yesterday’s photo. High key perfection.

[Leslie]

You are definitely ready. That is a really white shirt.

[haskar]

Great high key shot.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

When I saw this on the PP I knew it was one of your dapper tie shots! Love it!

[Chris Johnson]

@kjarn - No problem Kathy! I do know what you mean. I did a shot like this without paperclips before but I'm doing a pocket series to change it up. Truly appreciate the feedback though!

[Chris Johnson]

@dustyloup - If variety is the spice of life then three sizes of paperclips at the ready is...the document ingredient that keeps everything steady. :D

It's a mouthful but I like it. Thanks for starting it off! Haha.

[Chris Johnson]

@jb030958 - Haha, yep yep, I actually wear them, sometimes for work, worship, or special events. Plus I just really like ties and colorful shirts.

[Kathy A]

Now I know you are doing a series it makes more sense, I was thinking low key/ high key for the white and black shots so couldn’t get the significance of the pens and paper clips

[Walks @ 7]

Snappy with just a touch of whimsy- very well done. Fav.

[Dustyloup]

@cjphoto nice one! Fun fact of the day: the French word for a paperclip is un trombone 🎺

[Chris Johnson]

@dustyloup - Thank you! Oh wait like the musical instrument?!? That makes so much sense and is soooo awesome!!!

[Chris Johnson]

@kjarn - No worries at all. I figured that was the case. Now you know the method to my madness, haha :P

[Corinne]

Cool !
