A moment for poppies



After visiting my mother-in-law at a hospital facility in Princeton-Plainsboro today, I decided to take some photographs of poppies on the nearby grounds. The flowers looked beautiful in the sunlight, and I found it very soothing. However, someone called the police on me! Luckily, all went well — although it was sort of funny when he thought I said I was photographing puppies rather than poppies (at least I said “photographing” rather than “shooting”). I might use some of the photos as a basis for some watercolor paintings.

WOW – those are beautiful ‘shots’ Gloria! Sorry you had a problem with the local constabulary! Imagine, someone the cops being called because someone is taking pictures of the poppies!!

Thanks Judy! And, yes, it was strange that I had to talk to a policeman about taking photos, but at least he didn’t tell me to leave.
