Quick, before they see me! London, ON January 2024 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
I talked my way out of that jam, but still smile whenever we return to the scene of the not-quite-a-crime to replenish our frozen food product supply.
Last week I coincidentally happened to be in the same aisle in the same store. Instead of a giant camera with a long lens, though, I had my smartphone, which made it infinitely easier to raise photographic heck without being summoned to a conversation with the grocery police.
Let the record note: bigger isn’t always better.
I decided to try my hand at weird still-life pics from inside the case itself. Why? Have I ever successfully answered that question? Will I ever?
Probably not.
Be that as it may, a good time was had by all as I played with the angles and successfully warded off both hypothermia and the grocery store police force.
Win-win. It felt like a tiny, overdue middle-finger salute to Sam Walton’s tarnished legacy.
I wonder what other corners of the store might offer up some stealthy still-life adventures. I’ll have to keep looking.
I really hope they aren’t following me on Instagram.
