It's just a job
Working in a university with so much youthful energy can be a source of many surprises. I stepped out of our building one afternoon and came upon these two clowns having lunch under the small bamboo grove beside our office. One of the student organizations had organized a show and party for the children of the poor community that they work with. I wonder what the clown on the left is thinking. He looks quite pensive.

Clowning is thirsty work
Nice capture Hilda
At least they were not dressed that way for class.
Good for them for entertaining children.
Hilda perhaps the clown is thinking "clowning around is all part of university life."
Well it was when I was there:-)
Great shot! The clown on the left looks deep in thought. I also appreciate the feedback on the comments section you gave me on twitter.
Manila is a city I've always wanted to visit. I've made it as close as Southern India, but that's still a ways away. A good friend of mine in college was from the Philippines and spoke so highly of it.
...and yet so much more.
What an impressive entry of yours. May the clowns be as happy as the laughing sound they do provide.
How very nice to see something, that I haven't met over here throughout all these years, with so many poor people, children as they are...
Please have you all a nice start into the new week.
I don't know why but clowns creep me out. Are you sure it's just a job?
This is such a neat portrait of two clowns Hilda. Everyone who crossed their path must have loved seeing them.
To answer your question about the City Daily Photo group, I am ineligible to join the portal because Long Island Daily Photo represents a region, not a city.
Eric encouraged me to join as just a city from Long Island, but I thought Long Island is an interesting place in and of itself.
It's OK though, I still feel like I am part of the network since most people do not notice and even those who do are just encouraging me to join. It is such a welcoming community. I really love it.
Thanks for asking!
: )
He's thinking of Pythagorus Theorem, obviously.
Beautiful and nice portrait !! Great Hilda !!
That's a side of clowns we don't often see! Good capture.
un beau portrait de clowns, avec une belle expression
Two clowns lunching in the woods. That's a sight you don't see every day!
Great composition!
So bright! They must be taking a break from all the clowning around :D
as much as clowns can be fun for kids, i dislike them. don't know why, but i'm pretty scared of them,
esp, when they flash out their gigantic grin. uh-oh!
probably reminds me of the movie "It".
^0^
Great looking clown outfits and so nice to hear they are engaged in "good works."
The clown on the left is wondering why half of his hair isn't green to match his other pant leg. Or, he might be trying to figure out a way to distract the clown on the right so he can grab his food.
One never knows what goes
on in the mind of a clown!
Re your comment on Ocala DP - yes, at first I thought it was a raccoon tail, but it's probably a fox tail...
ps:
congrats! congrats! to your 2nd yr! and more to come! ^0^
truth to be told, you're one of my inspirations why i have this blog, even sometimes, i feel like giving up. hehe.
so keep going okay?! ^-^
i really honor people who dedicate their time and talent for the good of others.
Maybe he's thinking of some other food since they're having their lunch :) or a new trick for the kids to enjoy.I like them.
Pythagorus Theorem sounds correct.
working in the academia would make your energy forever youthful and your blog full of posts.
There is a stereotype about sad clowns, may be he is one of them!
A very interesting surprise, indeed! I think the clown is just concerned about lunch... :)
God bless you!

Off-duty clowns! Great shot!
A friend who had worked in weekend children's party as a clown told me it's actually rather rewarding. Kids actually came up to her and talked...
Hi hilds, thanks for visiting my site.
I think the clown is wondering if this is why he's studying hard to get a university degree!
