The making of each other's day

I had forgotten how nice it is to ask a stranger if it would be ok to take their portrait.
My model did not hesitate for a quarter of a second. She literally jumped in front of the lens. 
She was totally delighted to be asked to be photographed. Told me that I had made her day. 
She too made my day. Sometimes, things seem so easy. 
2.3 minutes later I was back at my desk in the Mistake Factory. 
As per magic, things no longer seemed so easy. Not in the least.
