ABC WEDNESDAY-"H"- What a hat!



While shopping at Whole Foods in Santa Fe, I noticed this very large man with a wonderful Cowboy hat.  I decided to take a stealth shot, and it worked.  I was asked, however, not to take photos in the store by one of the cashiers. Since I was on private property, I decided to comply.

    Really nice depth of field and perspective! Too bad that clerk spoiled the rest of your fun.

    That looks like a ten gallon hat!
    Very strange that you were told to not take any pictures in the store. I wonder about the reason behind it. Maybe to deter the paparazzi. In my experience, a guy that would wear a hat like that would not mind having someone take his picture.

    Love the 10 gallon hat. Its a great stealth shot.
    I'm not sure why grocery stores don't want pictures taken but so many of them have that restriction.

    Great shot. Isn't it funny that they don't want you taking pictures in the store? Must be some security issue. Blessings, Debbie

    Perfect shot for my comment today--too bad you are back in MN, Kate, otherwise you could scoot down to Las Cruces and meet Michael McGarrity at COAS Books later this month. We were just in the bookstore and I thought of you when I saw his books on display. And then I saw the sign that he was coming soon. Yippee!
