WPC: UNEXPECTED

It isn’t uncommon to see a mushroom this big, but the one growing on the table in a garden belonging to a convent is quite uncommon especially when it’s shaped like angel’s wings or isn’t it? 😀

                    8. Nah, we ask for some real “witches” instead – in high school (thousand years ago) we had once a topic in “written danish” called “My future” – I wrote an essay about I lived on the edge of Mount Vesuvius as a lawyer against the Mafia and was married to Magica de Spell – they ended putting it in the school newspaper… “hahaha” 🙂

    I hate “likes”. But sometimes words are inadequate and so I am guilty. I hate when people click on my posts. I would rather they comment and almost feel as if their “like” is a dismissive act. Anyway, I wanted to say when this challenge came out it was one of my first blog posts- if not the first- and I simply posted without visiting and commenting on others. This morning I came across your blog and love what I see. I will be following your site not to build followers to mine but because I enjoy your work. And I think I can learn something by the way you look at life all around. Angel wings? i would have seen a mushroom and left it at that. Not bothered to lift my camera. Thank you for this lesson.

    1. 🙂 Emilio I am touched with your words. Thank you. I hope we both can learn something from each other 🙂
