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.”
