Three Things: The Rodney Smith Edition

The photographer Rodney Smith passed away this month, robbing the world of a prolific artist of whimsy. One of my stand-bys when I need a piece with a sense of humor, or dash of surrealism, this week’s Three Things is dedicated solely to Mr. Smith. Hat tip to you, sir.
