“A unicorn is somebody who knows they’re magical and isn’t afraid to show it.”
Brittany S. Pierce
I try very hard to post only high-quality photos, but I could not resist posting an awful photo I took last night with my i-phone (a great reminder to ALWAYS have a camera with you!). We were out with friends in downtown Charleston, SC when I saw this unicorn walking along on the opposite side. Nope, not an ad or a promotion for the store behind her. I waited for a stop light to change and crossed over to ask her for a close-up; she happily obliged ![]()
I asked her why the Unicorn head and she answered “Just for fun.” I’m not sure if it was the current Weekly Photo Challenge, “Unique”, that prompted me to take the photos or if the moment simply demanded saving, but whatever the reason, I felt like sharing it with my friends in the blogosphere. To me, it was the definition of UNIQUE ![]()
On another note, Jake’s Sunday Post this week is “HOPE”. So, do you think she HOPED to be noticed? Did she HOPE if she wore the head she’d feel mythical and fantastic? Is she HOPING to “Pump up at the Planet”? Should we all HOPE that more people develop a light-hearted spirit and become willing to look ridiculous in the HOPE that they will bring a smile to someone else’s day? I’m not sure, but I do HOPE you enjoyed this one ![]()

Delightful, Tina!
Thanks Naomi!
I just love this!
once a little girl – aged 8 – cried, because I had told her: “There are no unicorns existing anywhere…” – now I realize, I did very wrong …

Lucky you Tina! I’ve always wanted to meet a Unicorn
Tina this was perfect…it really made me smile. I love her attitude – just for fun – I wish more did things for exactly that reason
Thanks Jo. May have something to do with her age
. She did seem to be recalling enjoying her little prank tho!

This whole scene you captured cracked me up ! Before I saw the Unicorn saw the sign ” Pump up at the Planet”. … There is a good reason I am not behind the Lens! Delightful reflection …. Hope -

You never know what and where you will find a photo moment. You gotta love the iPhone.

This happens to me too. Just when you think you can leave the camera home…the most unique event happens…sigh☺
Always the way, thank goodness for the I-phone!
I hope you have a unique entry again next week Tina ,

Good one! It was fun to be with you for that one! Love her sense of humor and your always alert eye for the new and individual!
Thanks Suz! Glad you were there to “share the moment”!
This has to be my all time favorite… sometimes things find you.. just think you didn’t have to travel continents or time zones. “Unique ” and “Hope” right in front of you on King st. maybe.? The best Tina!
Good Guess, King Street by Basil. Thanks Jeannie!

Thank God for the iPhone. Maybe you need to upgrade to the 5. In any event, like a good reporter, you were on the scene and brought home the visual bacon, or, in this case, a unicorn.
Hmmm…..you’re right
My IPhone 4 IS getting a bit long in the tooth
Thanks for stopping by Tom!
I HOPE she won her bet!

LOL! Never thought of that
Very un-Charleston-like. Must have been an out-of-towner.
