A picture my mother took of me (with some post-process in Lightroom because the cam/lens she uses isn’t very good and that’s an understatement!) last month.

 I was trying to remain serious as she requested, but see… here’s the thing about me: when people try to shoot me I either look like I’m about to get shot down like a broken horse OR I just can’t stop laughing and/or making funny faces. BUT (there’s always a butt, too) if it is me shooting myself that doesn’t happen. Weird stuff that I know happens to a lot of other photographers. *nods*

This is the only picture out of 40 where I’m not laughing like a maniac or hiding myself or making funny faces.

Today I was “Autumn cleaning” and found this little toy I used to play with a lot when I was a kid. I remember I loved it. I still do. So, of course, it’s back on my room, now! :D

P.S.: I forgot the name of this toy. Anyone knows?

EDIT: It’s called Slinky.
