I’ve watched it over and over again, who was the bald-headed man standing in front of me when I was shooting the video?

I checked to make sure I had an uninterrupted view before I touched the start button and I’m certain there was no one there.

It’s not as if I can see his face, just the top of his pink hairless head at the bottom of the screen.  He must have been very short too because I’m hardly that tall, or maybe he was sitting down, but then again, I don’t recall there being a bench in front of me.

There’s my mate Bob, he was with me when I took it, I wonder if he remembers seeing a little bald person there. 

“Look at this Bob, my video’s  completely spoilt”

“Serves you right for having your finger touching the bottom of the lens you dopy dollop.”

      I’ve spoilt many a picture doing that too! Cheers, Denise.

    A whole new take on the old, “having a a finger in every pie.” 🙂

    Nice twist at the end. A finger might look like someone’s bald head.

    Ha ha ! I shaved my head and what timing of your story Keith!

    And in India we are celebrating the Goddesses too!

        Gosh I didn’t know my email comment would land up hear with the entire signature. 😅😅

        No problem Natasha, would you like me to trim it?

    Good one, Keith!
    I’ll admit to being a member of the “what’s that in my lens” club 😁

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings October 15, 2021 / 12:47

      It’s got to be one of the biggest clubs in the world! Cheers, Denise.

    Hilarious! I had to read this one to my husband. I don’t think he has done this, but I have managed to get my finger in the photo a few times when using the camera on my iphone. HaHa

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings October 15, 2021 / 12:51

      I have to applaud your hubby, I wish I could say the same! An easy mistake to make! Cheers, Pat.

    I HATE it when that happens! Lol!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings October 17, 2021 / 16:25

      Me to, especially when it happens with what would have been the best picture!

    Ha! I thought we were being set up for a scare or something, then you gave us the finger!

    It’s all about perception and context. Who knows how many cold cases have been left unsolved because of stray thumbs

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings October 17, 2021 / 16:22

      …or how many bald people have been falsely accused! A good point Larry.
