I was walking in the park looking for the next good photo. I saw a dead tree trunk with fresh golden oyster fungus growing on it. I stopped, took off my backpack, and took out my camera. A family passed me by. The husband said mockingly “Oh, we have channel news here!” I panicked a little bit. I considered putting back my camera and walking away. Then it hit me. I didn’t know this person and I would probably never see him again, so what the hell? At the end of the day, I was glad his words didn’t matter.
