Miss Uruma City

MISS URUMA LAST NIGHT

IT WAS HOT ENOUGH TO MELT FLIP-FLOPS YESTERDAY

ABOUT 6:30 THE SUN WAS SLIDING DOWN BEHIND THE HILLS

IT WAS TIME TO SWITCH BATTERIES, SD CARDS AND ISO'S

BUT, WAIT

SNEAK A SHOT OF A PRETTY GIRL IN WESTERN ATTIRE

I ZOOMED IN

I COMPOSED A SHOT WITHOUT ASKING PERMISSION

NO PRETTY GIRL IN HER RIGHT MIND

WOULD LET A SWEATY OLD MAN WITH A CAMERA

TAKE HER PICTURE IF HE ASKED

SO, I DIDN'T ASK

I WAITED FOR HER TO TURN HER EYES

TO JUST THE RIGHT POSITION

CLICK

GOT HER

SHE HEARD THE CLICK

SHE TOLD THE BOSS

SOME SWEATY OLD MAN

SNAPPED A PHOTO

WITHOUT ASKING FOR PERMISSION


To be continued.....

Glad to see that I'm not the only one who gets hauled off in shackles for taking pictures without permission! Nice to see you made bail!

Hah, hauled off didn't happen this time. I actually wound up getting a few more shots and Model Release Forms signed.

Cheers,
Mike

Hi Mike,
I'm an old friend of Glen Porter, we grew up together, college classmates, both retired Navy.
I spent 4 years in Okinawa. Now my daughter and her family live there as civilians in Uruma. I'll be visiting for 3 months beginning in December.
Thought I would say hello and catch up on Okinawa.
Great blog.
