Michael Pick would like me to do something different in the background – me, not the scenery. Â No wonder they call it a challenge. Â People/objects we know and love, or who are interesting are usually the focus of our thoughts and pictures. Â Now Michael I’m not happy about this. Â I’m having to think – AGAIN, and I just did that yesterday. Â I mean really, I do have some excellent background pictures with Manny in the foreground and San Diego Bay in the background. Â Won’t that do, Michael?
That is surely better than this next one in which Manny is clearly the center of attention.
Then I thought about our trip to Hawaii last year. Â Vince and I were both more fascinated with the views than with having OUR PICTURES as the highlight. Â We were both taken with this long set of steps down to the beach on the island of Maui. Â Ever been here in Honolua-Mokuleia Bay?
We both posed, but IN THE BACKGROUND, Michael.
I’m not mad, mind you, but instead of taking 15 minutes like I planned to take to whip through this challenge, it took – well let’s just say I didn’t get my walk in. Â Oh well, I have proof that I have at least climbed some stairs in the last year or so.
Now if important figures, are supposed to be big, but out of focus, I think I have just gained the photographic ability to do that, but you can tell me if this is what you mean. Â It was an accident.
Thanks for making me think today.  🙂
