The snoozer with a sneeze?

Ah, spring. With the flowers and the sun come allergies, for some of us. I wonder if this fellow has allergies...not too many flowers near him, but he has strategically placed his Kleenex in case he gets that tickly feeling while he's soaking up some rays, or maybe just warming himself up, since it was rather cool when I took this photo a short while ago. Achoo.

Poor guy if he suffers from an allergy. Fun photo it is.

Always safer to be ready in advance!!

Or shading his eyes. Yet he's prepared.
I always enjoy your candid shots of people.

Or simply to prevent a sunburn on the tip of his nose! I love this kind of picture!

James said...

I wonder what he would think if he saw this post? :)

You happen upon the funniest pictures. At first glance I thought it was some kind of flip phone.

«Louis» also thought at first that it was a flip phone.

Worst year ever for allergy sufferers here.

I need to keep the sun off my nose, if I dont it will get red and peel and look awful, good thing I have this pack of tissues ...

I thought it was a cell phone, too, at first. Perhaps he just wants to avoid sunburning his nose ... or, well, I really can't imagine. Very strange. But, he provided you with a funny photo, so perhaps that's what it was really all about.

Too funny! Great shot.

SUNSET

  A beautiful urban sunset over New Belgrade. The 'smoke' from the stacks on the left is actually just steam from the heating plant....
