[Leica] Aaron's PAW 9: Remembering & The Power of Photos

[firkin at ncable.net.au (Alastair Firkin)]

I agree with you. the first image tells the story. You may not know its 
Lauretta's funeral, but you know its a gathering -- very sensitive. The 
second could be anytime from a day at the races to a family christmas 
celebration. Its a very nice shot of people "you" know, but to the 
outsider, its not a patch on your first one.

Well done and thanks for sharing
