A few weeks of dealing with caregiver things followed by three days in Humboldt County for the Kinetic Sculpture Race has me a bit tired.
I could use a nice quiet picnic by a stream. But this shot has me curious. Who took the photo? Was there a fifth person at the picnic or was there another couple and one of them didn't want to appear in the photo without their partner? It's a thought that often crosses my mind when I find a group snapshot with an even amount of people in the shot. I seriously doubt that it was someone walking down the stream who said, "Hey, want me to take your picture?" And most blessed is that it's not a selfie.

How about a camera on a tripod with a shutter timer? They look like they're from a fairly modern technology era. Or maybe a spare child entrusted with the box camera?
ReplyDeleteAnd you've made quite a recovery if your kinetics competed in that race!:-)
Hasn't anyone ever asked you to take a picture?
ReplyDeleteThe kinetic race looks really nice I hope you had a lot of fun. These four picnickers seem to be a mix timewise - one with jacket and tie, the other with a coat. If there was a fifth, It is not clear where they sat,unless it was on the newspappers on the right!
