The Hokey Pokey by skipt07

The Hokey Pokey

You put your right leaf in,
You put your right leaf out,
You put your right leaf in,
And you shake it all about.

You do the hokey pokey
and you turn yourself around
That what it's all about.
I bought one of these plastic solar flowers for a buck. The sun, or light source, runs the motor which makes the flower and leaves move back and forth. I decided to try and do a long exposure to capture the movement. It was one of those days.
Fun movement. I love these happy little flowers. Cool shot, Skip!

Couldn't be all bad if you are amused by the flower!

@danette - Tonight was my church's wild game dinner. Last year I took my son-in-law to it for the first and last time.

@skipt07 I'm so sorry for that, Skip. Those "firsts" are such hurdles. I am glad you at least took him and have that memory. Too many people don't make the effort to include in-laws.

@danette - What made it even more bitter sweet was that last year he donated alligator meat and a lot of people had their first taste. My daughter made a soup. And so he was a hit among those that knew he brought it. And he wasn't feeling to well that night and I am not sure how much he enjoyed it as much as he loved to hunt and fish. So I struggled as to whether to go this year or not.
