"Could you take a picture of us, please?"


I left early to walk to the restaurant, so that I could look at the Wisconsin State Capitol Building.  The sun had already set, and the building looked beautiful in the fading light.  I slowly walked around it as the light faded, and then the lights illuminating the building came on.  I was taking a picture from this angle when these two lovely young ladies walked up to me and asked if I could take their picture, with their iPhone.  I said "sure," snapped a few and then realized "Whoa!  This would be a great shot for me too" so I asked if I could take a picture with my camera, and they said "sure."  After I took the picture, we talked a bit.  The woman on the left is from Madison.  The girl on the right is from Austin, Texas.  I said "My favorite barbeque place in the world is "The Iron Works" in Austin, where my friends take me when I go to visit.  She got a funny look on her face, and said "I probably shouldn't tell you this, but I don't like barbeque!"  I said "What?  But you're from Texas!"  "Yes," she said, and I am only tellying you this because we are in Wisconsin!"  It's a cute shot isn't it?

you do realize she will have to be tracked down and converted, and it will happen because of your photograph.
