Foreshadow (Day 352) Many of my visitors might recall my missed jumping cow Daily earlier in the year (Day 118 to be precise). Well, while I was bummed at the time that I didn’t get the shot, I knew that there would always be next year. That wasn’t so true today. The above iPhone shot of my airline seat-back tray provides eerie foreshadowing to a missed photo opportunity that will haunt me all the rest of my days! Dramatic, huh? On the way home from the airport, we passed a car that only moments earlier had burst into flames; police and fire weren’t even yet on the scene, just a tow truck that happened by. My brother Dave slowed as I leaned out the window, camera in hand. As we passed, I tried desperately to get a shot but I could not lock focus. What I regret most is not asking him to stop and let me jump out and shoot – I might have gotten an epic, once-in-a-lifetime image!
