A Rare Photo

A rare photo of a photographer without a
camera pressed up to his face.

I capture quite a few photos of Sheila but it is very rare when someone captures a photo of both Sheila and me together! 

Since I usually have a camera covering my face, it is a rare occasion when someone grabs my camera and snaps a photo of me... and, although Sheila and I are together more often than not, even rarer is capturing the two of us together in the same photo.  

While we were at The Munich Haus restaurant in Massachusetts this past weekend with family and friends, Jen asked if we would like a photo of the two of us... I could probably count on one hand how many times people have asked this question over the past eight years so it was a very nice surprise. I truly wish people would ask more often.

I handed Jen my camera and gave a few quick instructions on how my camera operates. In hindsight, I should have simply switched my camera to one of the 'auto' modes to make things significantly easier. I was exhausted, in pain from all the walking at the train show earlier in the day and, subsequently, I was not thinking too clearly though. Regardless, Jen captured a nice photo of Sheila and me at this little German festhaus. 

As always, the company was awesome... dinner was delicious (a Polish platter with salads for us)... the German beer was delicious (Radeberger Pilsner)... dessert was delicious... and we had a very memorable time! 

Thanks for the photo, Jen!
