Nosegay

This is one of my favorite photos from Mexico.

I purchased a small nosegay from the kid for 10 pesos. I couldn't help but purchase things from the all the kids selling things on the street, not only because the kids were adorable but also because everything they were selling was so ridiculously cheap--bracelets, embroidered handkerchiefs, nosegays all for under a dollar. Plus, damn, they are good little sales people.

After I purchased the flowers, and subsequently turned them into a corsage, Will asked to take a photo of the kid.

Will then spun the camera around and showed the kid the image on the digital camera screen of our Nikon.

The kid was so excited to see his photo that he ran off, rounded up his primos, and found us--we had walked a couple of blocks down the street--so that they could pose for the camera.

What hams!

I don't know if I am more inspired by your kindness or your use of nosegay in a sentence...

Oh my gosh those pictures are absolutely adorable. Not sure if Will does photography a lot but I really feel as if I was there listening to those kiddos laugh and seeing you buy that nosegay just looking at those pictures. Almost makes me cry they're so cute, but do they have to sell things on the street like that??!! I would be so scared for my kiddos to do that with complete strangers!! Especially that little one in the middle.
