Look at the faces, soldier face wide, open, alert ... inscrutable. Photographer ... like a child screwing his face up to pear into the unknown.
It would actually be funny if it wasn't a gun. As to where i find these? Ok, i'll admit a HUGE weakness for visual imagery, i used to do photography, and have been told i have talent, but at this point can not afford either 35mm d+p or a digicam.
So i surf the web, and revel in other's ability to capture the world n a 100th of a second. And like with this soldier pic, how apt, certainly only 1000 words would be an insult, you could wax eloquent for months on the various nuances and associations of that photo.
One i just found this morning on a "private" biker site, well the comment under it says all, sometimes a picture only needs a few short, sharp words.
Strains of AC/DC, Back in Black.....
Mike, thanks but no.
For some arbitrary reason i cannot comment (?) ... silly technology. Ah well, my fucking blog i'll just use the main page to reply, i can do that :D
Found a really interesting video last night, it was in some stuff a friend brought for the pc. The B52's, 1978, live on stage in front of about 30 people, doing Rock Lobster. OMG, wow!! Awesome to watch, and odd, because it is a really intense song, musically too, and yet on stage it take a whole new persona. The BEST part is, after a really hot live performance, the lead singer says: "Waiters work for tips, i should know, i'm a waiter too .... "
YOU tube - Rock Lobster
And my story of the day .... : The old man and the bicycles

Geneva - A Swiss retiree in his seventies was convicted on Tuesday of being a serial bicycle thief, rolling away nearly 900 bicycles over a six-year period.
The former insurance agent began snatching bikes after he retired in 2001, and quickly resold them, the Swiss news agency ATS reported.
By the end of 2007, he had pilfered a total of 873 bicycles.
A court in the northwest Swiss city of Basel handed the bike thief a two-year suspended jail sentence and fined him 66 000 Swiss francs for unpaid taxes on his illegal gains. - AFP
I ASK you, what the fuckity fuck fuck?
