Whether that is good or bad or indifferent depends on your viewpoint. Smith's picture has neither of those attributes. The Walk to Paradise Garden is a desperate longing for sanity and normality after the horrors of war. To me it seems to imply that the photographer can never follow his children, never return to innocence and peace. http://www.pathfinder.com/photo/gallery/arts/smith/cap01.htm John Collier On Sunday, November 24, 2002, at 10:33 AM, Daniel Ridings wrote: > I liked the little girl going up the hill/steps in the woods.
