corsage

Posted by e. (New York, NY, United States) on 11 February 2008 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.

Before I return to the regular programming (hiking photos), I'd just like to post this photo, relevant to today. Today is a very special day for me and Mike. Not our anniversary, not any typical day, just a very special day. :)

This corsage was for my senior prom.

Can I congratulate you for your senior prom? I looked it up on Wikipedia, we don't have such celebrations here. The orange of the picture exudes a warm and joyful atmosphere with a much-promising light for the future, excellent shot!

@Illuci: Thank you for your congratulations, but my senior prom was two years ago. :) *sigh* such a long time ago... It's too bad you don't have prom, it's a wonderful tradition. Sort of a last hurrah for high schoolers to spend time together and couples to spend time together before they part ways.
