I love the flow of the subjects hair like a soft wind across her face and the half moon of light across her face and body.- Laurie Freitag

In spite of the horrible times we have all been living through, growth is still possible, and that is what this photograph represents to me.- Lori Pond

Kevin Convery- Worry

Kind of sums up 2020.- Lori Pond

This drew me in because we are living in an upside down world. The balloon-man seems to be frowning with his upside-down smile...but because I'm so conditioned to see him the other way...I'm hopeful that his dilemma is in fact temporary. I see him as a playful being, upside-down, yes, but...he's still smiling.- Laurie Freitag

A cautionary tale well told.- Lori Pond

Yes I agree with Lori! I wonder when this shot was taken and also wonder how high the newspaper piled up before they were tossed. Maybe the reader should have just cancelled their subscription!
