The Enthusiastically Amateurish Photographer

The 365 - 9/3/17 - Day 42

Happy Sunday everyone - I'm taking a break from the Harvey coverage tonight (trying to wind it down actually), so I had to dig into the files to find something new for the blog space.   A few years ago, while taking a photo class, I was in Herman Park hunting for photos when I ran into this couple sitting on a park bench having a picnic.  I had thought about a couple of shots, but decided not to interrupt them.  To my total surprise fifteen minutes later, I had doubled back to find this scene here.  The picnic had turned into a proposal, complete with rose petals and a mariachi band.   I got a series of shots, including this image.   I rifled through my bag looking for my cards to try to slip to them without spoiling their moment, but by the time I had them in my hand they had somehow slipped away.  I look at this series and I regret not being able to get these to them.  Maybe Facebook can help out here. (Herman Park - January 2014).  Anyway, a bit of positive for the blog tonight as I gear up for a couple of photo walks tomorrow.  Enjoy your Monday / Labor Day -
