Description Once upon a time I was sitting alone in a audience waiting for an event to begin.
Out of the blue a girl in the row ahead of me turned around with a smile offering me a paper crane.
To this day the origami bird sits near my desk.

Hi, I was wondering if you would let me use this picture for a little Valentine's Day thing I want to submit? I wanted a single paper crane, and this caught my eye.

This is a really beautiful shot! May I also use this as a reference for a drawing? Once I finish the drawing, I will post it here and give you credit in the description.

That's a beautiful crane. A friend of mine gave me a tiny one made of graph paper, inspiring me to make my own one thousand cranes. I carry his crane in my pocket wherever I go. Wonderful to see the origami bird love spread~

Thank you so much, and what a beautiful story.
That seems to be the great thing about origami is that it is often a small but memorable gesture, to me that makes it a very admirable art form (though, admittedly I'm rather terrible at folding it, haha).

I love the look on a stranger's face when I offer them origami. The look of pleasant surprise. I've left dollar bill elephants as tips to some places, and the waiter/waitress always looks glad to find it. Brightens up a person's day.

What a heart-warming story...a lovely little crane, made and offered spontaneously and still beautiful now...

It has been quite the sturdy crane since it was folded from a thick paper, which was great because I'm not exactly delicate with my belongings.

Thank you. It was a bit of a stretch for my lense to focus in so tightly on a small subject like this, but I was quite pleased that I could get this photo. It has quite a bit of sentimental value for me.

Thank you. She really did a great job as it has survived for years without falling apart or getting bent out of shape. Everytime I see it, the crane makes me smile.

The crane made my entire weekend so much better. Surprisingly it's also a rather resilient little crane as it's survived years in my studio without being battered too badly.

Thanks, I'm still adjusting to this new camera, but I was pleasantly surprised when I snapped this photo. What I uploaded is the exact image that came from the camera (with a little resizing).
