LONDON: When Alicia Jessop visited the state of Maine for the first time to have a lobster roll, she felt the experience “needed to be documented”.
But while she was preparing to photograph her lunch in front of the scenic shoreline and Nubble Lighthouse in York, a seagull struck, tearing it from her grasp.
She said: ”It was the most picturesque place. You’re standing on the seashore overlooking the lighthouse. I don’t really take a lot of food pictures, but I knew this needed to be documented.”
“I was really embarrassed. You hear stories of people taking crazy Instagram pictures and hurting themselves and I was like, ‘Oh my God, you are now that person. You just wasted $21.50 for a picture.”, she said.
This is why we can’t have nice things. I was trying to take a picture of the lobster roll I ordered in Maine and well, this happened ???♀️ pic.twitter.com/N601vpQ41h

She spent some 20 seconds composing her image for Instagram before the winged marauder made its move. (Agencies)
