Children at a puppet show 1963 Paris


I love this picture. All the different expressions and reactions from these kids, especially the little girl with her hands over her ears.

The innocents


I found this image which I think was taken after the end of the Second World War (possibly in Germany) showing two little girls, dirty and dishevelled, sitting amongst the debris, clutching what is left of a rag doll. It made me think that even now nearly 70 years later, children still bear the brunt of man's inhumanity & will ever continue to do so.

Wild flowers




I've just found these photos whilst looking at other blog sites. I love wild flowers and weeds, they are opportunists and born survivors. These pics were taken by Daniela Tangelder and are on her site at: http://myneedleart.blogspot.com/ I might dust off my own camera and get snapping.

Unrequited love


I found this little picture and thought about the times that this has happened to me, only the guy on the left doesn't look dejected enough!

Success (Sound of marching band & crowd cheering)

Having successfully posted my first blog, I now have nothing of world shattering importance to say, so I shall retreat back into my shell and try to think of something profound.
