Some people think 'fun' photos have little value and rate very, very low.

I think such photos are wonderful captures, just of a moment and stand for nothing more and certainly not photographic greatness.

But it's 'fun' and 'fun' has little place on Photo.net, especially with some photo prudes.

I'm glad you (and I) are not those people.

I smile when I see this photo; it's just 'people' being people, and they'd be surprised that I caught such a moment, but I do such things all the time, as people's behavior often can be predicted, and there I am!

Thanks, Pierre.

Do you mean that you guessed that I had taken it, or you are supposing that's my rear end (popa) which is depicted being grabbed.

I prefer to take such a photo, not be the grabee!

"Life is not only misery and hysteria, it is also everything in between" -Elliot Erwitt

I mean that I guessed you took it (the photo, not the butt)

This certaily fits Erwitt's category of 'everything in between' -- a bit of fun, I think, to break the seriousness of Photo.net!

I hope you enjoy.

But I needed confirmation to ensure that I did understand.

Thank you for recognizing my puckish humor when it makes an appearance.
