Crowning glory

I wish I could properly introduce you to pretty Em, one of the servers at Sofitel Manila's 7Pecados by the Bay, but when I asked if I could take her photo, she shyly shook her head no. When I said that I wanted to take a photo of her gorgeous, long, curly hair, she willingly posed for me.

Em's beautiful, long, curly hair

    Maybe if you went back and told Em that hundreds of people all over the world thought she had incredibly gorgeous hair, and would like to see her pretty face, she would agree. Or not.

    Some people are just plain shy. Some fear photos of themselves for some reason.

    And I remember being told that ghosts don't show up on film. I wonder if that holds for digital photos, too?

    I'm sure she will say yes to a portrait the next time you see her.

    I think I know just how she feels. And how wonderful of you to respect her wishes.

    I think it's nice that you asked before taking her photo. I can understand her desire for privacy.

    Her hair is definitely spectacular though. I'd love to have long, curly locks like that!!

    I think I can understand why she was willing to let you photograph her hair. I wonder how long she works on it each day to keep it looking so great.
