The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Makes you appreciate how much easier we have it today compared to what those at the time went through.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967

Perfect example of leaving home with nothing but "the clothes on your back," Rob.
The guy in back is Jack The Zipper.
Excellent use of selective coloring.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

I do see him lurking in the background, I sure appreciate what I have compared to those days, another well done job of selective editing.

Now that I'm retired I say that I worked for 33-1/2 years of THEIR time, officially, but that I worked for them for 40 years of MY time, having given well over 6,000 hours of unpaid service, deciding it was important to put in the extra time to do my job to my fullest potential. I look at this woman, loaded down with stitch work to take home, and I'm thankful I didn't live at that time... I showed up about 40 years later. She must have had one heckuva stiff neck by the time she got home, particularly so if this was a regular routine for her. As for the guy in black, I imagine one could search an archives to find a Sears & Roebuck catalog from 1912 to see what the popular fashions were at the time. Because if that avenue showed that wearing all black was not commonplace, then I would foster a guess that this man was a member of the clergy. Just a thought. [Incidentally, I was a North Dakota state employee, one of those "overpaid and underworked" individuals... or so I was told by several members of the public. Like they would know.]

Perfectly done Rob.

That poor woman - she looks so weary.

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
