5th Avenue x Broadway, Flatiron Building
|
So this is the famous building called The Steam Iron. Finally I can
take a snapshot of it...
Unfortunately, a flower kept getting into my viewfinder.
"I'm taking a picture of the Iron,
not you," I cautioned the
blossom. Each time the flower
bowed aside, but as soon as I
aimed my lens at the Iron, it
sneaked in again.
"Stop playing games," I said.
"Everybody takes pictures
of that building," the flower
snapped back, almost sobbing.
"But I'm a lot more photogenic
than that heap..."
To support her statement, she
pulled out a photo-album with
portraits of her. "Actually, one
modeling agency offered me a
job," boasted the flower, "But
they say I'm still too young."
I gave up, and took pictures of
the Iron with the flower.
I'm sorry, but there was
no other way around it!
But I should add that the photos
in her album weren't bad at all...
