Playing at Being Grownup.

 

Truthfully, after a while, it gets hard to think up yet another title.  It looks like this photo was taken in the country, maybe on a farm. 

A Rather Stiff Pose

  

As I've mentioned before, I sometimes buy envelopes full of old photos.  Usually, I really want two or three images and I'm left with a number of photos, some pretty nice, but not something I'd go out of my way to buy.  Probably from the thirties or forties. 

Light Stands

   

This is a strange little photo.  Not because of the woman sitting in the foreground, but because of the tripods in the background.  Lights, camera, action?  

That's One Big Purse

 

I'll never understand what women put in their bags.  

Purse Snatcher

Dated "MAY 1969, a bit out of focus and I think it's San Francisco.  At first I thought the guy was smoking, but after putting a magnifying glass on the print I realized that white mark near the man's lower lip was caused by dirt on the neg at the time of printing.  The big question is why is the guy riffling through a ladies handbag?  I think he might be a purse snatcher.
