Story/Description of "The Joker's Wild"

      I was riding bicycles with a friend down the coast of California.  We were camping somewhere in northern California.  My friend had gone to sleep while I was up late playing solitaire by flashlight.  I noticed the patterns of light that the flashlight was making on the cards and decided it would make an interesting photograph.  I dug through my gear for my tripod and set up the camera.  After several shots, I decided to make the photograph a little more interesting and meaningful by placing the joker on the top of the pile.  Out of all the shots I took that night, it was by far the most interesting and therefor, the one I kept.
