Snapshots

I've always been one to look at photos. Not merely look at them, but divine my own idea of what was happening at the very moment the shot was snapped. It's a good psychological study, because the subjects of the picture are frozen in their expressions, without the use of a handy-dandy facial segue.

A picture is truly worth a thousand words. And where our ancestors once used words, the digital millenial era is upon us, and we use images.

My waxing has a point, I swear. Check out the Freedom Riders gallery at Newsweek.com, and you'll see what I mean.
