My lucky little car shrine. Sits on the dash.
The shell is from a wonderful low country weekend, the clay oil lamp is from my pic pick win, the wooden Ganesha “Remover of Obstacles” is from India, the crystal is from the Dixie Gem, tiger’s eye from China, moss agate from my brother from another mother.

Today’s Photojojo submission topic is “wheels”.
When studying abroad in India a few years ago, I had the privilege of meeting this man. At 85 years old, he spun beautiful pottery and oil lamps on this broken wagon wheel— which is perfectly balanced on a mound of dirt and pushed with a stick.
He’s the last of the clay spinners in the village, and no one had stepped up to be his apprentice when we visited.
I took this photo in 2008 outside of Anukkuvar Village, Cheyyar, Tamil Nadu, India.
