I got a few snaps off at Wal*Mart before I was promptly told that it was company policy to have NO photographs taken in the store! :)

In the story My Precious Lens.

This is gorgeous. Great idea to sneak around WalMart. I think I'll try Lowe's and see if I can pull some strings. :)

OMG, it's everywhere. And I've been told that Homeland Security has NOTHING to do with the NO photographs in the store, mall stuff. SO I say I like this guerilla photography and we should make it a theme! Oh yeah Lynn nice colors..half blue and half purple would really be great!

PURDY!

OMG Lynn!! These are lovely!! I am glad you risked getting kicked out of the store to get the shot!!
Susan Littlefield gave props (4 Apr 2009):
Wow Lynn.....terrific shot! I can't believe that they had issues with you taking photos of their flowers!! I mean it isn't like its a schematic for a secret weapon!

Gorgeous capture! Half the time you can't find anyone to help you when in a store. Just keep your smallest camera in your pocket...you never know when you might want to sneak a shot!

Try Lowe's. I've gone there twice and one time a clerk even offered to move a few plants so I could get to the one I wanted. Wal-Mart is known for this kind of behavior -- I don't shop there at all any more. Beautiful flowers, by the way!!

Well done! they're such a hard flower to shoot!
Judy Wanamaker gave props (4 Apr 2009):
There you go terrorizing shoppers in Walmart with your camera, which is a a cleverly diguised uzi. Anyway, your effort is a rousing success. Beautiful color.

ROFL!!! You spy!!! You're suppose to be discrete when you're taking pictures for Target!! Wal-Mart doesn't like competion taking photos!! Beautiful shot btw!! Love the colors!!
Donald Garrett gave props (4 Apr 2009):
Those colors just leap off the page!! A truly wonderful capture...even if those mean old folks at Wal Mart told you to quit taking pictures! (They made me put my camera away when I was shooting the inside of a woodfire pizza oven, would you believe?)

I am so glad you got this pretty picture....Don't you hate those policies?... I have been reprimanded also a few times for taking pictures in public places(: However, I never see the signs that say cameras are prohibited when you walk into the stores.

Gorgeous colors, Lynn! As someone here said, you can hardly ever find anyone to help you, but here they are kicking you out for taking pictures. Pretty pathetic. Will definitely NOT be buying any flowers there this year - that'll show 'em!!
