He's inviting folks to put themselves in the middle of several pairs of wings painted on the building at 446 N. Main.

Then, as he does so well, he will take their pictures.

A good number of people showed up Saturday morning to create the above images.

Leonard will be back on Sunday taking more photos from 9-11 a.m.

So stop on by for your own set of wings.
