when mistakes turn out to be good things

I took this picture the other day at Grandmothers' Garden, and my hand moved just as the flash was going off. I really like it! It looks like something I spent hours on in Photoshop, and this is straight out of the camera.

It reminds me a lot of this one, which happened because a mosquito bit me on the ear just as I was taking it. It was my favorite of that day.

If only I could do it on purpose! Every time I try, it just doesn't come out as nice. So I must depend on serendipity. And, perhaps, mosquitoes. *g*

Yes! I really do need to figure out how to do this on purpose. I like it so much.

LOL! Yes, it must have been possessed by the muse, if only for a second or two. ;)
