Fourteen Photos


 

I
sat in
the
booth
waiting
for the
thing
to
start.

Ready,
as I thought,
for my one portrait
shot.

The
light flashed
as the
machine thumped several times
and that I thought was that.

When
the
photos
emerged,
fourteen in fact,
and all exactly the same,
I had to
laugh.

      When you use the booth, I hope you get the image you want… especially for your passport, Prenin. Mine’s horrendous!

      Yes, the photos in those booths aren’t what we’d like them to be… although some are OK, that’s for sure!
      And I hope you have an amazing weekend as well, Sue… Feel Good! 🙂

      The funny thing about numerology and me, VK, is that I’ve always been ‘fond’ of the number 4. And the letter D. I know it makes no sense whatsoever, but its been with me since I was very young. Being born on the thirteenth adds to it, as 1+3=4. I’m so random at times…

      Hope you’re having a good weekend, VK!
