Sitting at our favorite Starbucks one day, I spied these two in the adjacent lobby. Hoping to add some ‘people’ shots to my photographic archives, I asked if I could take their picture. Happily, they complied. Because I didn’t want to intrude further, I quickly left without getting their names or their relationship to each other (I suspect they may have been father / daughter). Anyway, it’s scary enough to ask someone if you might ‘seize their soul’ via your camera and another thing entirely to get up close and personal.

People photography is not my strong suit and so I welcome your suggestions and advice on how I might grow in this direction!

With the season’s first winter storm heading our way, I think it only fitting that my final Friday Flower be utterly devoid of color as there is no more yellow or pink or red or orange to be seen. We’ve had a splendid autumn so no complaints here. The weather has been gorgeous! But now we’re waiting for the White Stuff to fall later today and there will be no more flowers until spring. Happy Friday everyone!
