The challenge was to find a way to show three different people being themselves at the same time. I’m told this one did.

Everyone was excited as they gathered at this brother’s home… that is until it was announced they were heading to one of those big department stores in the mall. They knew they were in trouble when the kid running the place had to open up a three-ring binder to read how to pose that many people. Well they all got shoved together in the tiny room and everyone could see the camera… but the camera couldn’t really see everyone.

Welcome to the land of snapshot chain photography.

Because of copyright laws, I can’t show that image, but this friend tells me no one in his family ever displayed the photo in their homes.

What I can show you is an image I had the priviledge of taking for a family gathered to celebrate a 50th anniversary.
