Well, it's been a rough few weeks for me at work, and I needed a smile today. So I thought I'd share some of the random smiley faces I have found in my travels. I started seeing them a few years ago just out of the blue. I would look down while walking on a path and boom! there was a smiley face grinning up at me. Then I started seeing them quite a bit, and I always managed to capture a photo or two. Lately I haven't seen as many, which makes me sad, but I know that has a lot to do with my frame of mind. But I never alter the photos or the subjects in order to make a smiley face. If it's there, it's there.
Anyhow, I plan on making a
Flickr set for these soon. Many come from my cell phone or other cameras, and many are on my computer at work, so I have to gather them all up in one folder. I really get a kick out of seeing these, so I hope to see some more soon to keep me smiling.
Enjoy!
