Pappy and I went grocery shopping today - at the Krogers in Mariemont. Normally, the grocery stores don't have a problem with me photographing anything in the store. If they ask, I always tell them I'm a Photo student at NKU and I'm working on a project....
Usually works - even though I'm kinda bending the truth.
Well, I was shooting produce like a maniac (as I frequently do) and no one was paying any attention to me. I guess the bakery ladies couldn't see me until I made my way up to the salad bar. Nothing looked interesting there so I turned back towards the habaneros. One of the bakery ladies had come running over and started hovering behind me, spying. I was finished in that department anyway.
I went looking for Pappy (who had ditched me by then) to start participating shopping part of the trip. He was in the bakery section, looking for a special loaf of bread. The fancy desserts in the case caught my eye so I picked up Chuck Norris again to make a pretty picture.
Well, I only got off two shots when the mean bakery lady started yelling at me! "No pictures, you can't use a camera!" Geez, prissy-pants was adamant. I apologized as I put Chuck back in my purse.
Apparently, she had no problem with me documenting the 'good-for-you-stuff' but when I got to the tasty stuff she had a fit! Well, no problem. I got a really nice photograph of a fancy, fancy mousse.
Ha.
