The LADIES OF THE LEAVES


Beyond grabbing some leaves to cover themselves, what is the significance of leaves in this photo? Yesterday Forgotten Old Photos featured a photo of a couple of "gentlemen" holding leaves. I know I have others. So what gives with the leaves? Strange mystical cult? Gardners? Adam and Eve thespians? If you have a clue do pass it along.

Besides the leaves the obvious question is what was cut off the left side? Was there a grouping of three fellas holding bags of dirt? A cow that had wandered into the shot? Again, you can say it with me...we'll never know.

Another fine vernacular photograph from Bert's collection.

  2. Me too. I know I have more I just don't know where. I hope someone comes along with words of wisdom for us.
