Friday: I have fun at the library!

so, when you're in the New York Public Library you don't necessarily feel comfortable taking a picture of yourself grinning like an idiot giving thumbs-up. as soon as you set the camera up everyone is looking at you wondering why the hell you're taking a picture of yourself in the periodicals room and why you're giving the thumbs-up. and there's no way you can ask someone else to take the picture. so i had to set the camera on the table in order to execute the pose i wanted to pull off. since i was in the library i thought it would be clever to add the "shhh" sign with the thumb. so not only am i going to affect this look taking my photo in the library put i'm going to have to hold this pose for ten seconds because i have to use the camera's timer release. my shame really allowed only one shot at it. unfortunately all of these factors conspired to me taking a photograph that looks like i'm picking my nose in the library. awesome.
