Which of you know the back story?
These two women may have been school teachers in an urban area for impoverished children, devoting their life times to teaching acceptance, inclusion, tolerance and love. They may have worked 3 jobs other than their teaching positions in order to be able to afford the time after their retirements to sit outside and make bubbles for the neighborhood kids. They may be suffering from particular diseases that have created the swelling in their ankles that render them incapable of walking without great difficulty. Conditions that create constant pain. Conditions they have no control over that create water retention and swelling. They may have met each other sitting in a doctor's office and have decided to support each other in times of need. WAIT! That's not these women. That would have been MY neighbors, who remind of these women. They remind me exactly of the two loving souls who ended their lives as shut ins because they were too frightened to leave their houses to become objects of ridicule and criticism by people like you.
The only indictment I see here is the one that you have all made of your true spirits exposing yourselves for the types of people you are. |

First impressions go a long way. Right or wrong, they count for something.

Do I need to?
It's a fantastic image Lev. I didn't have you pegged as blue, but you were in my top three. Looking through Winogrand's work, this definitely fit his style. |

bubblesby LevTComment by mrchhas: This is an absolutely amazing picture... quite fantastic. the stories being told, the specifics that are found.... a slight tilt reminiscent of some of Garry's work, but carefree as well. Congratulations on the Double Blue, you've earned it! |
