Unexpected Fame!

Filed Under Daily

It has been 6 weeks now that I am in Manchester and things have started sadly in a bad way for me. I kept on running into awkward situations and people would be more or less rude to me.  So I tried to be as simple as I could and disappear in the crowd. I kept on posting my pictures links on Flickr and gave the link to the Uni Hiking group. My post was being ignored most of the time even though there were tons of people viewing it. Yesterday something unexpected happened! Sarah, a girl I met at the very first hike, posted a very nice comment to my post:

“Wow! I’ve been looking for the Keswick pictures for ages. It was so beautiful. You are an amazing photographer. Shame you got my ugly mug in the pictures,
I’m gonna come on another hike soon :D

Then all of  a sudden all the attention were drawn to me. I was very happy. Catherine, one of the team leader, asked me then to post my pictures on their Forum. I had to tell her I ran into technical issues with the site and then another member tried to solve the issue. Many people then hit on the links and my stats on Flickr went all the way up.

Now everyone knows who is the weirdo with a fancy camera called Pierre!
