Defiance Pays


At the Guggenheim.
Friday.  22 March.  2013.


A short, round, elderly lady with a heavy accent scolded me when she saw me raise my phone to take this photo.  But because she didn't make eye contact as she delivered her tired speech in a dull monotone, I went ahead and tapped my phone's screen anyway as I paid her some lip service.  "Oh, I'm allowed from the ground floor only?"  [Click.]  "You got it."

I'm so glad I was in a defiant mood that day because I just opened the picture on my desktop and the first thing I spotted was the couple on the bottom right.  Too cute!  It's the best when I capture silly antics without even knowing it.

    1. My card only permits one guest now. [Big sad face.] So it's gonna have to be you over N or Z! Or I might just choose Z as my date. Can you imagine the havoc the two of us would reek on those ramps?!

    1. My favorite part of scrolling through my day's pictures are seeing things that I hadn't originally seen. It makes me wonder just how much I'm missing!

  3. You're hilarious! I hate how everyone nowadays is so paranoid about others taking photos, people and organizations alike. What's the big deal about taking a photo from the top (or middle) floor of the Guggenheim? (PS - I deleted my last comment because I made a grammatical error :))
