Lisa/Anders - Ninja Transvestit Danmark
Reflections by a Pond 2
Actually.. to be honest, I have almost cheated to day as I went out shooting as we say in Denmark ”Før fanden fik sko på” - Which directly translated to english mean -> VERY early.
I really didn't mean to look out the window going to bed very late in the morning, but I did and looked at a beautiful sky... I suddenly realized my camera was fully loaded and was staring at me with those begging lenses and then my triggerfinger started to itch. So I got an early start to day.
When finally later to day, I DID get out again, I ventured in another direction than usual and a short way from home I took a picture of a plant outside a house. A woman came out of the house, smiled and asked in a friendly way if I liked taking photos of plants. Very much I answered and then she insisted on showing me her MARVELOUS garden. It was (to say the least) and it actually turned out (MUCH to my surprise) that she was not only a professional photographer teaching photography but also was writing a book about ecological gardening.
She gave me a red and yellow flower (which name silly me of course have forgotten). But I can assure you it was so bright in colour I would NEVER have dared even put it into my mouth. Taste it, she said, and I did. It tasted.. just splendid, as nature's candy. I was astonished.
Try rubbing these to leafs between your fingers and smell. I did.. and I couldn't get my fingers away from my nose for the next ½ minute. I stayed for coffee and homemade elderberry juice, we talked about photography and I was allowed to shoot all I wanted in her lively garden :o) I did (of course it is me) tell her the quite honest truth and said she could find my pictures by googling ”Ninja Transvestite”
I have friends that are transvestites she said and quite a lot of gay friends as well. - I guess even I am allowed a little luck sometimes it would seem :o) – So all the beautiful flower-shots are taking in her garden.. or in this case rather ”tribute to nature”, is a more precise definition of the piece of land behind her house :o)
So I got lucky twice, first by a sunset and then by a lady with a kind heart and a garden well cared for.
Almost cheating.. not really, but almost ;o)
