“Is that for a theme?”

That was Clare’s question. Yes, it is, I said. It’s the “It’s-already-after-10-o’clock-and-I-don’t-want-to-be-looking-for-a-shot-just-before-midnight-theme”! Let’s call it “pre-desperation”!

@honeybees Thank you, Rebecca! That's what I thought!

@michelleyoung Indeed it is. And no flash because we all know that I suck at flash photography...

@digitalrn I had to read your comment twice to "get it," Rick, but good one!

@rhoing Just trying to help you out

[Jennifer Wearing]

Love the story. I get those per desperation moments too.

@jennwearing That shows that we take this seriously (but I hope not *too* seriously)!
