C.S. Lewis

A lovely group of kids, sometime near christmas, showing of their sweaters. On the back
Sue 17-Senior                                                  
Doug 16-Jr                                                            
Annie 13-8th                                                      
 Janet 10-5th                                                        
Christmas 1961-Betzalds
They could almost be the Pevensies.  Janet has a strong resemblance to Lucy, and Sue could easily pass for Susan. Perhaps behind that wooden wall, Narnia lies.

Meaning

Last week we talked about Photos with no meaning. This one is different. On the surface, It looks like it could be Just an accidental photo, but with the instantness of polaroid, it probably wouldn't have survived. Looking at the composition, This could be an artistic photograph. Look at the composition, the leading lines, the repetition. This was clearly planned. Except it wasn't. On the back, it says:
                                      2 1/2 in. at one end       1 1/2in at the other end.                                                          It wasn't a keen eyed photographer at all, just a construction worker who needed to take measurements. Of course, there are still mysteries, such as where and what this is and what those figures mean. But those are questions for another time.
