Saturday Image Bonus 33





Here are today's images. I believe most of these old photos are boys. I am not sure about the last one. I was the tradition to dress the young boys like girls in photos. Last week someone commented that no one was smiling in the cabinet cards. I inquired with a photographer why that would be and he said that photos took so long back then. People were asked not to smile in most cases because of the length of time( several minutes). I guess it would look wrong by the time the shot was over. I imagine as in the case with a boy child a bit uncomfortable too.

As always feel free to use any image for your personal use only. Do not post the orginal images anywhere else on the net, but feel free to link anyone here. I ask that if you use one that you link it back to this message so we can all enjoy your art.
