"Cheap Sunglasses"

"Cheap Sunglasses"
Explored! Thank you very much :-)

Saturday Self-Challenge 9 June 2018 "Anything Red".

When Helen & I went to Stowe last Sunday I spent a lot of time looking for 'anything red' :-) Found a red mailbox but didn't seem able to get the right framing. Then saw some red roses but think I should have got in a lot closer to the subject. Was kinda on point of giving up but as we headed towards the exit I saw something red in the distance. As we got closer I realised it was red sunglasses. I guess someone had dropped them and some kind person had lodged them on the top of a fence :-)

When, later, I was looking at the Group I saw Karen's "Challenge is closed for the week. See you next Saturday" photo of red sunglasses and I thought to myself "This is a bit spooky and I hope that Karen doesn't think I stole her sunglasses" :-))

Added to ~ Saturday Self-Challenge

I am also adding my photo to 'Sight and Sound' because, perhaps, the sunglasses I photographed are 'cheap' ones and ZZ Top recorded "Cheap Sunglasses" :-))

Hey, you stole my sunglasses! ;-)

This is perfect for the challenge and so thoughtful of someone to leave them there just for you. The song couldn't be more fitting.

Welcome to SSC, my amigo, and a pleasant weekend to you and Helen. :)
