Sunday Thoughts, A Life Lesson

First up American Guide did publish some of my parade images on Memorial Day so quite pleased.  I'm also getting more exposure on Instagram with my Real Not Reel Hollywood iPhone photos. https://instagram.com/Claudia_M_Eastman 

Snapping pics that have NOTHING to do with faux, media created Hollywood. Instead photographing images that convey the true look of the neighborhood. 

Using the iPhone as a camera has been a learning curve. So has using the Instagram app. Here's a snap I took and altered this morning. It's fun to play.

Now the important life lesson learned.

Here's my teacher.

I've learned that the sweetest oranges are the ugliest ones.

This woman parks on Broadway in Chinatown on Sunday mornings and sells these huge bags of oranges for $5.00.

Been buying from her for three years now and not once have I had a bad orange. Every single one has been as sweet as sweet can be.

Not overly ripe. Perfect.

It's the best bargain in LA.

Not pretty until you slice it open, quarter it and shove it into your mouth.

And yes, Vitamin C and fresh OJ for DAYS!!!!!

So that's my life lesson. Never take things at face value.
