Looking at photos from when I rented a 16-35mm last year. Such a fun lens with pets! Also, this is a perfect representation of how Sam lets me know that it is dinner time.
Playing with Flare app for Mac - this photo given the 'Dusty Film' effect. Taken with iPhone 4 front camera.
After Sam had told Konoto what sneaky thing he wanted her to do, they order their hotdogs from Frank. After the usual greeting, Frank had a lot to share with Sam. He first got Konoto's hotdog served, just the way she likes her hotdogs--with lots of sauerkraut. "I had a boyfriend years ago who introduced me to sauerkraut. I love it!" She began eating with delight but kept an ear open to what Frank would tell Sam.
"So, I hear a lot of things. People complain about the weather, about taxes, about the government, about the virus...you name it. But one conversation stuck out."
"What was that about?" Sam asked in his usual inquisitive way.
Frank finished getting Sam's hotdog prepared and continued, "Oh, these two brothers were arguing about who was at fault for someone stealing a gem. The one was saying it was their sister's fault, while the other was trying to defend her. He said it was the work of a professional who knew about this gem for some time. After I served them their hotdogs, they walked off, but didn't say a word."
Konoto almost choked when she heard what Frank said, but kept her composure. She wondered about her brothers and who said what. She was beginning to get a little angry. But Sam, sensing this was a sensitive piece of information, consoled her and reminded her to stay focused, as a good Ninja would.
Not one, but two, count them, two magicians walk out on stage! While Sam knows what's going on, no one else seems to know. They think it's part of the gig. But with what Konoto had done, the demise of "Reverso the Rodeo Robin" will soon come.
But while the two magicians walk on stage, poor Nosmo has an attack of some sort. An EMT and a doctor immediately rush to his aid. "I can't breathe well," he gasps, "and it's just like the other day. And it was some strange perfume that caused it then, and," he coughs and grows weaker.
"Quick! Get the oxygen!" the doctor orders. "We know how to get this guy breathing better again."
There is a slight pause in the action while the EMT and the doctor are tending to Nosmo's aid. But, as they say in show business...'The show must go on.'
"Okay, ladies and gentlemen," the one magician begins. "Who can tell a real magician from a phony?"
The crowd offers a few answers but are all muted. "We test a magician by how well he or she hides their tricks and illusions. Not this one," pointing to the other magician. "Why, she can't even keep her jewelry in her pocket!"
And with that, something falls from the coat of the one magician.
