If it blooms, I will find it.
I love flower shots. It’s a mild obsession.
I took this photo down at Waterfront Park on my lunch break.
Pretty. Lilies are a favorite. Stargazers and Casablancas topping the list.
What you can’t see is the bum on the bench behind.
You also can’t hear him asking “What are you doing?”
I have a camera. Pointed at a flower. So… what do you think I’m doing?
People always want to talk. Can’t just mind their own business.
Don’t worry. I was nice. I smiled. Kindly.
No. I don’t have a cigarette.
It never fails.
Vanilli.

Loved your shot — the angle, the detail, the colors! Thanks for a day-brightener, when we’re facing yet another stormy day here.

Thanks Debbie – yeah, I’ve heard all over Facebook about the storms in Chicago and Indy so you’re smack dab in the middle! Take shelter and stay dry!

They often ask me for cigarettes. I’m 9 months pregnant. Even if I was a smoker do you think I would have a cigarette now? Sometimes after not getting a cigarette from me they ask me for bus fare. No, I don’t have bus fare for you either. Maybe if you quit smoking you’d have the $1.50 for the bus.

Great shot Boo. What lens did you use?
June 23rd, 2010 at 7:48 am
The kit lens (18-55mm). And then I leaned real close.
