Description
We ran into a convention of the Red Hat Society this weekend while at the Marriott Hotel having lunch.
The experience inspired me to write a poem entitled Miles Apart which you can take a look at if you've a mind to.
I wanted to post the image in a larger format than is allowed in the Writer's Gallery ... hence the double post today.
Zooming will give you a larger image on this one.

Cool picture. At first I thought it was CG but I had to look harder to realize that it was actualy a photograph.I like the lady in the center with the very large purple hat. Your images are very well blended together. Overall a wonderfull collection of photos. Thanks for sharing.

If I were wearing red and purple hats with clothes to match, I'd be dancin on the tables--these women don't look very happy at all. But it's a great shot, couldn't get much more colorful!!

Excellent! I agree with Bill - where's the smiles and laughter There's nothing - it's blah!

What a fun picture Tara. The most funny in it is all the serious faces :-)

My heart goes out to women constrained by things they do not seem to understand! Life at the Marriott is a life unlived. Your poem is excellent, and I commented on it there!

Fabulous, Tara!! And apart from the fact that it's so hysterically funny, it's like a Renoir to look at..very beautiful. They are trapped. It makes me wonder how many of them EVER deviate from their class norm. So sad. Brilliant work.

Beautifully impressionistic image.

This is wonderful - so many memories of my mother and her purple that unfortunately faded to alzheimers. And thanks for your comments about driving the North Cascades and 'avalanche' that reminds me also of several just such instances that caused the round about route clear the heck out of the way.

Wow! really wonderful shot.

This is a fun, delightful photo, Tara! It has an almost Victorian look to it - the really fancy hats and dresses, and the somewhat serious looks of the ladies. It's just great! My dad lives in on of those 'senior' apartment communities. His lady friend is in that Red Hat group, and he gets to photograph some of thier events.
