me up in the locomotive

Naboomspruit, South Africa

A really fun morning....my mother decided she wants to take a picture of me in this
retired locomotive (i love old machines, trains, anything rusty). So, off we go, to the locomotive.
First of all, I focus the camera for my mom, and tell her how to proceed to take my
picture once I am up in the train. So, up I go. Mom is aiming at me....."I see you, right here in
the little TV screen", she says. "OK Mamma, now just click to focus, and then take the pic".
Mom promptly brings the camera to her eye, to look through the viewfiender!! "Now I can't see you anymore," she laments. I explain again.....
Several attempts later, my mom exasperatedly suggests I take the photo myself!!
Luckily, after much laughter and hilarity, this photo was taken.
Thanks Mamma! :)

Very well captured. I see much joy in your face. I'm sure this was a trip home that you will forever cherish.
