A few years ago, I photobombed a street scene—not intentionally, but just by being at the right place at the right time.
I had given a presentation that morning, so I was dressed nicely—suitcoat, tie, and all that goes with them. I drove back downtown and was walking on the sidewalk toward my office. A car stopped on the street and three young women emerged—high school or college aged. Two of them posed on the sidewalk. Putting their feet close together, holding hands, arcing their arms over their heads, and leaning away from each other, they made the shape of a heart. The third young women snapped their picture, and then they entered a clothing store.
A professional photographer would have spent considerable time arranging the photograph, putting me in the right place to be framed by the heart, making sure the distances were perfect. But it happened so quickly that I could not duck out of the picture, and so I was centered in their heart. I’m sure they had a good laugh when they saw the picture. I wish I could have a copy of it… but I don’t know them and they don’t know me. Maybe they saved the picture; maybe they posted it online; maybe they discarded it. For me, it is merely a memory, the lunchtime when I did a photobomb. J.
Also thanks for the congratulations on my blog anniversary

Considering the ubiquitous-ness of phone cameras and selfies, it’s pretty easy to photobomb unintentionally these days!

This event was a classic, though–completely unintended and perfectly arranged. J.

Bahahaha! I love it Salvageable. We need to receive those kind of things, those are gifts from God. I suspect He may have a sense of humor, because Her seems to show up in rather strange ways, right when I am needing an extra bit of love. 🙂
