Fun, fun, fun! There's something Magritte-ish about the photo, but I don't know why I think that . . .

And your hair is great -- it's reflecting the light beautifully!

@vankrey @twistergirl @jyokota @gerry @witchyjacq Thanks for even commenting on this photo--I admit, I had just one chance to get a photo and then I was back to trying to sell, sell, sell. I'm soooooo beat and not sure the day was worth spending in the heat, but my kids had fun and made some summer spending dough! And Junko, haha, I WISH I had a Magritte vision for this photo. It was not happening! And Doris, it was a three mirror hanging rack--a beauty. Someone DID, indeed, walk away with a steal. I'm all about getting the stuff OFF THE LOT! :) Here's hoping tomorrow, I will actually plan a shot. Summer break has not been as accommodating as I'd hoped with photos! But I'm having fun with the kids. :)

Fabulous shot! It's great that you had that moment to capture it, as a memory of the day, a great selfie of you as photography, and an overall interesting image!
June 2nd, 2013  
This is really a neat shot :)
June 2nd, 2013  
Ha, love it.

@jyokota I happened to see Magritte in there, too! I think it's a composite idea of "Son of Man" http://unus-mundus.fr/userpix/56_magritte_son_of_man_1.jpgmoney and the general sky he was fond of painting, as well as the quirky sense of humor. And maybe because with the "hot mess", if you squint real hard, Daryl's silhouette looks like a bowler hat. :^)

Oh, forgot to ask, how was the weekend, did you go sailing? Hope we'll see a proof here :)
June 2nd, 2013  
@lunaksi hahaha, Saturday was "Yard Saling" as I'm having a yard sale and today is the lake (no sailing), but we had a wonderful time in the sand and the kids/hubby enjoyed water slides! :)
June 2nd, 2013  
Wow! I love this shot...the way the sky is reflecting in the mirror...love it! Hahahaha you are so NOT a hot mess, but I have to say that is my favorite phrase lately!!
June 3rd, 2013  
Very cool! This should go in the new artist challenge. Very vivian maier!
June 3rd, 2013  
@darylo Hahahahahhaa, ok, I must learn how to read, LOL ... I guess I change words to fit my interests, LOL
Still, glad to hear you had a lovely time 'yard saling', and I'm glad I gave you a good laugh :))))

@squamloon I could not get the link to open. And hahahaha-the hot mess as bowler hat. As the humidity rises this summer, so will my hair. :/ It may be a top hat soon. :)
June 3rd, 2013  
@luvmynynix The south's humidity and my "naturally curly hair" is going to make me a hot mess all summer long.
June 3rd, 2013  
Love this selfie.
June 3rd, 2013  
Love it great capture!!!!!!!
June 3rd, 2013  
Oh, you silly! Your hair is fine! "Hot mess!" LOL Did the owner of the stuff ask you to shoot each object, hoping it would sell 5 min. after that? Haha
June 3rd, 2013  
haha. you should see my hair most days. hot mess, indeed! great shot.
June 4th, 2013  
@espyetta LOL, I am the owner--it was our yard sale. I was just trying to get ANY shot in for the day and was even thinking of going back to redo the shot, but someone bought the mirror right after! It was all I had for the day, so my hot mess, humidity upwardly rising short hair was ALL I HAD! ;)
June 4th, 2013  
@kaarina365 Summer in humidity means I will have to let all vanity go....
June 4th, 2013  
@darylo I'm in that club too ... but that's one of the joys of growing older, I think. I just don't care that much anymore!
June 4th, 2013  
I see! Well, it does get humid here, but don't think you hair was a hot mess! :))
