thought for the day.....please don't forget your valuable.....

The tremedously talented docophoto just posted a splendid shot with a little tiny cameo of herself in a mirror in the background of the photo and it just looked so good….. and it put me in mind of a shot I had taken some time ago in the ladies loo at Circular Quay in Sydney…

so what ever else you do today everybody….please don’t forget your valuable…....:)

    What the hell are you doing in a toilet with the camera anyway?

  • Juilee Pryor replied

    thanks Lawford….. yes grammar and spelling in correct English….might be a bit beyound Syndey Council….. but I find the errors delicious to be honest…. and what was I doing in the toilet with a camera….. it was in my bag as I was having a day out shooting at the Quay….. when I came out of the loo…. I looked up and saw the sign and just couldn’t resist it…...:)

    Didn’t know Sydney Rail or council were so concerned with everyone’s state of mind – no one should ever forget they are valuable – now what other ones can we come up with- maybe then we will live in a more caring city when everyone knows they, and everyone else are valuable.

  • Juilee Pryor replied

    hi INishiata…. thanks for having a look…. yes I love the twist to this shot…....glad you like it

  • Juilee Pryor replied

  • Peter Hill

    Peter Hill

    Absolutely! And I also like the sign to the left of it. I mean, I know you ladies have a LOT of stuff in your bags, but really …......:) Oh yeh, saw your blue moon in june – was that tonight? saw the moon behind the neighbour’s tree tonight and got this before I saw yours (borrowed your title though!):

  • Juilee Pryor replied
