The filename for this shot is hell.jpg. I took this picture on the midway of the Indiana State Fair in the early 1970s and I still find it disturbing. Posted by Picasa

Ok, I've search this picture over and I'm missing the hell part, what am I missing?

Look at the guy's face and the body language of both people. To my eye, he's in an unfulfilling relationship, tagging along behind a woman who is ignoring/rejecting him. Taken against the garish background of carnival freak show banners, it looks like hell to me.

Wow. I honestly didnt see that, still dont actually. Just goes to show you. I saw a woman in a hurry, and a dude draggin his ass through the day when he should have stayed home and had his beers and watched his tv.
Now that I REALLY look, I see a woman who is apparently allergic to the sun trying to ruch through the day and get to all the stuff she wants to do before she starts having a reaction and a man draggin his ass through the day when he should have stayed home, no wait........is that his medication she just handed him?
LOL, just goes to show you how one pic is interpeted, did you personally every know these people and know the real mood of what was going on?
