Upside Down

And as my mind begins to spread its wings
There's no stopping curiosity

The Story Behind The Photo 
En route to farmland to purchase plants for the home front, 
I had a rare moment of inspiration.  
(I get them every now and then.)  
So I made a quick stop to purchase a glass 
and another stop to purchase...um...
iced tea would work. 
(I didn't think I would want a glass of wine 
with me should I happen to encounter 
an officer-of-the-law in my travels.) 

After purchasing the desired plants 
I meandered around Upper Buck County taking photos.   
This photo was taken street side, 
the glass on a fence post, 
the man across the street staring at me 
as he cut the grass.  

He probably thought I had one too many glasses already. 
I waved and drove off 
tempted to zig zag my way up the road. 


The Party's Here! Where I am linking these days.

I hope your travels continued on safely :) Great image though. That upside down reflection leads the eye to the golden wine immediately.

Such great reflections. Don't you love it when you baffle the mind of an onlooker? We can imagine all sorts of things are going on in their minds. :)

Hahaha - great story to go along with a gorgeous photo! I was looking at a random reflection in one of my water drop photos, but none of them were good enough, as I said 'random'. Yours is really awesome.

Did you zig zag? Just a little? A wonderful shot and an even better story!

Ida said...

Oh that was a great inspiration for sure. I got a chuckle to out of the story behind it. The things we do for a great photo opportunity!

My first thought was "this is fabulous" - like, 'I'm so in love with this picture" - and then I read the story behind the picture and am literally LOL. hehehe!

Oh you crack me up! I've done this on a rooftop in Barcelona, and in front of my fireplace...but I've NEVER thought of driving around Bucks County with my wine glass! Haha. Next time? Stop by My house and I will GIVE you a bottle of wine. Better yet...I'll go with ya! Thanks for joining in at Song-ography.
