Of unsuspecting victims - 1

Shall I talk of my victims now? Of unsuspecting men who innocently wanted to get their picture taken? Of their easy gullibility?

Let us get up early to the rubber plantations. Camera, there will I give thee my loves.

Namukku "koodan" rubber thottangal:

The three drinking friends found me as I was photo-hunting in the plantation on the hillside. Together in a shack, they were celebrating their church's perunnal happiness. They wanted a picture taken on seeing the camera.

I am no good in "directing" adults and dealing with their impatience, so a "posed" picture is what I could get.

Of unsuspecting victims - 2

I am just frustrated with the possibilities that are haunting me. Had I been a little more patient and forthcoming, had I spent a little more time with them, maybe, maybe I'd have got more spontaneous shots...

Another gang awaited me on the way back. Two of which weren't seen too happy, probably since they aren't old enough to be allowed their pint of happiness.

Of unsuspecting victims - 3

(I am not happy with the results Sensia has given this time. Perhaps I should try Velvia and see the difference. Ah, the learning process.)

Thankyoo walrus saar.

Was wondering... what would be it like, like, if Padmarajan's Solomon was looking after a rubber nursery? What would be a suitable name for that movie?

I can fill in the dialogues. Solomon's conversation with Sophia.

Sophia: Avide rubber thottam ano?
Solomon: Ah. Sophia kandittundo rubber thottangal?
Sophia: Illa, pazhaya solomon rajavinte rubber thottangale patti bible il vayichittondu..
Solomon: Haha.. puthiya solomonte thottangal athilum better aa. Oru divasam sophia ye njan avide kondupokam.
.
.
Solomon: Namukku gramangalil chennu rapaarkkam. ...

I shouldn't spoil that part anymore. :)

Whose LOTA this is I think I know
His bum is in the toilet now
He will not see me pooping here
To watch his LOTA, brimming with oh!

The LOTA is lovely, dark and deep
But I have poopiness to keep
And miles to poop before I sleep.

:D:D
