Taking the Scenic Route: Are You Done Yet?

“A ginger at the 2011 Texas Renaissance Festival, Todd Mission, Texas. When I asked if I could take her photograph she said yes and then spent the next 5 minutes trying to talk me out of it. She was cute about it. In this photo she was looking for a way out of being in front of the camera. She was encouraging me to take photos of the other people in the shop. But no such luck. I liked her colorful appearance: hair hat and coat.”

This photo cracked me up. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen this look on the faces of our kids, nieces, nephews and yes, random strangers. The hubs quest for the perfect picture is never ending. If you’re new to the blog and haven’t seen my landing page, with more of the hub’s pictures, you’re missing out.

Have you been on the receiving end of the annoyed look? Handed one out recently? Do you dread getting your picture taken? I know I dread the 10 lbs the camera adds to the family jowls. O.O

Do share your adventures in annoyed looks and/or photographing. All comments are entered into my monthly drawing for a $10 AnaBanana gift card (no photo required). Winner is announced the first blog post of the new month.

Perilously, and furtively, yours,

Pauline
