Weekly Photo Challenge: Unexpected

Unexpected. The world is an interesting place: we stumble upon unexpected things each day, like signs that are unintentionally amusing…

Cheri – The Daily Post

Unexpected

When read today’s weekly photo challenge and saw the prompt was the word “unexpected” I couldn’t think of a single image in my photo roll to post.  This lack of inspiration was in itself unexpected because I usually have an idea pop up right away and today I had nothing.

I thought about unexpected moments while I worked through the rest of my day and remembered some great old stories but nothing that could be illustrated with a picture.

After school Ryan and I walked through downtown and since it was still on my mind I asked him what he would post today if this was his blog.  He turned around, pointed to this shop window and said “look at that, I’ve never seen a Carnivorous Terrarium before”.  Ok, an unexpected moment, a sign that is amusing and an interesting picture to illustrate it.  Check, check and check!

    Venus fly trap comes to mind when we talk about such a terrarium. Good for Ryan. Very nice observation for this unexpected post. Glad you had your camera 🙂

    How cute! And yes, that is very unexpected…what in the world are in those? Bearded dragons in clown suit? 😀

      Great questions. 😉 The sign definitely stopped us in our tracks to look a little closer. I’ll admit they were full of Venus flytraps but I like your bearded dragons in clown suits better!
