Who Are All Those Women?


My high school class of 1959 annual Christmas dinner - I missed attending because they changed the date at the last minute and Pat and I had already coordinated our travel plans which we couldn't change at the last minute - nice composition on this picture though, it is the way I would have staged it - some sitting and others standing. Only thing I would have made sure more were smiling!

A little explanation is needed for my header photo on this blog. I know some of you are wondering "Why is Ron posting a picture of all those women?", Ron being gay and all.  Well, for your information I have many women friends. I like women. As friends only of course. 

I took this photo of my co-workers when I worked at First Financial Bank in Downingtown, Pennsylvania way back in 2005.  Wow, I am always amazed at how fast time goes by.  

This past Saturday my high school class had it's annual Christmas dinner in Pennsylvania. Pat and I had planned to attend but they changed the date at the last minute and we couldn't make it. I always take group photos at my class reunions. But I have to admit, whoever took this photo staged it the same way I staged my photo of my former co-workers at our Christmas party in 2006.  One difference, if I had taken the photo of my former high school class members there would have been a lot more smiles. When I take the photos my subjects smile.  They can't help it!

Ron,
I don't like the sweater the woman sitting on the right is wearing, a bit too tacky for me. However, I would assume she is a wonderful woman that loved her job. You, however do try hard to avoid posting stereotypes, and you're successful at it.
In the DHS 1959 photo, I think I see a smile of everyone's face, however small it is.

Joel,
I haven't been able to respond to commenters recently on my blog. Let's see if it works this time. I made some changes in my Setting which make no sense at all but better to do something than nothing.
