Beautiful but what's the underlying story. I'm afraid it isn't really a nice story…
A good catch.

Girl reacting as girls do; it isn’t nurture: it’s nature. So there.

Nice shooting Russ; 1953 was the year I left India for the last time, and for me, a new life began.

Happy New Year,

Rob

Russ, I remember this shot, it's probably my favourite from all of your uploads.

Thanks, Keith, Rob, and Francois. I badly scrambled the title, and with my rapidly deteriorating vision, due to macular degeneration, I didn't see how bad it was. I used to be able to type about 100 wpm with rarely an error. No longer.

That was the first picture I shot in 1953 with my new Ikoflex (the poor man's Rollei, but with a wonderful lens) I was flying fighter-bombers out of our K2 airbase at Taegu.

I can still focus my Nikon D850 with my left eye, so maybe I'm not quite finished. In the meantime, I have a quite large catalog that I've collected over the years.
