Mayor Performs Fatherly Duty

To obtain more fame, volunteers from an antique baby carriage museum gave, in Dickens style, 'acte de presence' during a crowded event in Flushing, Zeeland, The Netherlands.

You can see that the 'mayor' (please notice the quotes) has not neglected his 'fatherly' duty, lol.

Of course I have asked permission to take pictures and to share them, which had to be 'paid' with copies of some of by me taken pictures of this event.

PS: the 'baby' in the carriage is a doll.

One for 'Manic Monday'

The "mayor" is an imposing figure and a great contrast to the tiny doll in the carriage that he is pulling. Interesting shot and a good one for this Monday Cornelius.

He sure has an commanding presence, this is very good, Mr. C. He is commanding in presence, and yet the baby in his car (doll) plays against that. Very good once again, kudos!! On this take Mr. C.

I wouldn't want that big guy "The Mayor" to get upset with me for any reason, lest he have the notion to crush me like a bug....so I would have gotten permission too. You have created a marvelous scene here, Mr. C. Well done.

This will bring a lot of smiles.
'The Mayor' looks a bit surprized at his fatherhood !

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Super Wacky Wednesday posting and in full I can tell the baby is a doll. Love the jolly face on the Mayer - you can see he's looking off to his left through the glasses.
