Song-ography

Old Friends

Old friends
Old friends
Sat on their park bench like bookends
A newspaper blowin' through the grass
Falls on the round toes
Of the high shoes
Of the old friends

Song-ography is hosted by You'll Shoot Your Eye Out, a fantastic photographer and funny lady.

Sepia Saturday

I'm posting at Sepia Saturday today.

I am going with the suggestion of three men.

Three transplanted Dubliners.
I know that this is Montreal around the early 1960s. My Dad, Jack, is the handsome man in the middle. On the right is my Uncle Brendan O'Shea, married to my Mom's sister Nellie. On the left, with the glasses (X 2), is Jim O'Connell, married to my Mom's youngest sister, Ursula.
Whose house this is? I can't figure out, nothing is familiar to me. I can guess it is probably the O'Shea's, and it might be on Durocher St. or else where they moved after Durocher.
I will have to ask my aunt.
Dad has his suit jacket on, but the other two are in shirt sleeves, rolled up.

Men About Town - Mazatlan Mexico

February 2014 - Mazatlan Mexico

I'd love to be braver taking photos of people but it just seems so intrusive.

Here's some that we have taken of men around town working or relaxing.

Even a clown has to get home.

Standing guard

Heading to work hoping to sell some hammocks.

Turned his back when he saw the camera.

Flowers?
