So I couldn't narrow it down to just one pic from the Ren Faire, and I don't wanna stuff em all into one post... so I've decided to put up one each day this week.
Kidnappee #1
This here is myself and my first kidnappee... the cutie. It was my first picture, and definately the most awkward... what with me not being overly outgoing, charming OR inclined to invite perfect strangers into my personal space for such familiar activities as posing for pictures. But the other two photo-ops became easier as I got used to the process. I had a creative goal... and backup. I probly wouldn't have managed what I did if I'd been alone.
I, Wuss
But Mom was great... and very patient. I think I spent about 15 minutes mustering myself to approach the cutie for this photo-op. Partly because I wanted to wait until a halfway decent stopping point for him between operating the ride, and partly so I could wrangle my social anxiety into some semblance of obedience. I walked away and back at least 2 or 3 times, with Mom trailing patiently after. Yeah, I know I'm pretty pathetic. The poor dood probly thought he had a stalker or somethin. *grin* But he was very nice, and gracious about takin a pic... backwards.
