HS:MS - Friend


A person you know particularly well.

This prompt had me rolling about laughing in the garden at 7.30 this morning, the neighbours must be thinking we have finally gone barking mad! I have a slight lack of friends to take pictures of today (everyone say Ahhhh) as they are either on holiday, live miles away or are in hospital so I took this picture of my best friend instead.
.
This was the second attempt, on the first attempt he behaved like a girl shouting "It's sunny, it's sunny, it's really, REALLY sunny" and shutting his eyes. We'll gloss over the fact that I hadn't put the memory card in either.
.
So on the second attempt he got into position in the sun and shut his eyes tight, instructing me to say go when I was ready. The result as you can see is, well, how can I put it ... scary. And just to think I married it.
.
The new lens worked well though!
.
I'm not sure what happened in our friends operation yesterday as when I saw Ang she was rushing off to the hospital and the girls were with us so she wasn't saying much. I do know that he had told the nurse, that phoned, to say "Hi" to her, so at least that bit of the battle is over and done with now.

LOL! I wondered why he had such an, erm 'unique' expression. Good thing I don't have to take the memory card out to transfer photos as I'd never remember to put it back in!

Such a special friend. I know what you mean about forgetting to put the memory card in! Hope your friend in hospital makes a good recovery.

Great photo. That's the sort of thing my DH would do.

Think I got a bit confused yesterday. I read it as your Dad having an op - sorry. I hope it all went well for your friends.
