10 years apart
« on: October 16, 2016, 13:45:20 »
Ten years ago - I photographed this fishmonger and her son.
Today I met up with her again - and sent her the image to her mobile phone.
this was her reaction

it is. I showed all the fishmongers the pics I took 10 years ago - and they picked out at least 5 people whom have died since.
And everytime a deceased's pic came up - one lady crossed her herself and said " may his soul rest in peace"   :o
