A wish for an old man

[Don Ellis]

I wish him well, and I wish him love.

On a technical note, he's about a dozen feet in front of her, and I'm about six feet from him. He was selling ginger plants to passersby. He turned to catch someone's attention and this was the last of a dozen frames that I took of him... when I saw it on the LCD, I knew I could leave him in peace.

On a culinary note, this was taken outside Sogo in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. The best french bread in Hong Kong can be found in Don Q in Basement 2 of Sogo. When I asked what time their baguettes were coming out of the oven, they told me 20 minutes, so I went out on the street to see what I could find until my break was done.

Cheers,

Don

Feel free to stalk me, Marie... especially as you think I might be hitting 30 this year. :):):)

Omigod, as one of my infrared girls might say, do you really think I'm that old? Inside, maybe.

It's natural I would shop at Don Q, isn't it?

Thanks, always, for commenting. You are both the secretary and the treasure of this form... and, no, I didn't forget the "r".

Cheers,

Don
