a common sight

As time goes on and the travel opportunities multiply, I have to admit, I’ve stopped taking pictures. I find that my memories get skewed and then as time passes, my experiences are replaced by flashbacks composed of the photos I took instead of the real thing. Often, I also find that I don’t get my camera out in time to capture the moment which impressed me most. Then there’s the fact that photos, unless professionally done, are never as beautiful as the view/landscape/moment I am trying to record. Add to this the fact that I am also just too lazy to bother…

But THIS shot had to be taken. Special prize to anyone who can guess the number of times I saw this!
