The Red Hat

Walking past a shop, a photographer asked if she could take my photo. Hesitantly, I agreed, while giving a sideways glance at my reflection in the window.

That’s when I spotted the red hat- the shopkeeper approved, I plonked it on my head—improving the situation, if not the subject.

The photographer looked slightly disappointed. “I was hoping to catch your face,” she said.

“I’m afraid that flew off a long time ago,” I replied. “This is as good as it’s going to get.”

    Amazing colors…though I know that feeling too, of not wanting to be being photographed on the spot.

  6. Your hat matches the flowers on the tablecloth. What a beautiful array of colours. This definitely has to be framed! And…..your face hasn’t flown away! ❤️

    We are the women behind the picture or behind the hat.
    It is hard to put our faces out there. Wondering if we take care of others, but forget we are beautiful too.
